... Of my signature image?  Does it look catchy?  I'm trying to get some feedback on whether I need to make a new image for signatures in forums or if I can just use the cover art I made for my media pages.  Let me know, thanks!

It looks good.

 

On the screen try leaving just Rosalina - as it is now.

The images on the left could use some emotion from Mario and Yoshi.

I'll consider that on a future iteration of my media art, thanks!

I have had a friend all these years do work for me tho I don't bother him much with it anymore as he is super busy over at Madotter games. I will say I will sound like a snob even tho I have the skills of a peasent myself. Yeah it looks cheaply glued together.

 

Now excuse me as I use my Youtube logo that I desined but he made as an example

 

He also made up a Wallpaper so I can use in videos

Not trying to hijack your topic just using these as examples and the reason being is the logo is obviously Nintendo Sony Sega Xbox thrown into one but blended. The Wallpaper shows images of different games but in a cohesive way.  All I am trying to get across even if you do not have a PS wizard at your disposal try to make something cohesive and creative. Otherwise it looks to have lot of stuff mixed that's not blending well. Throwing stock images looks just like that thrown together stock images. Try and find a way to blend them in a creative way. While this maybe the worst example because as I said I have no skills my avatar I on purpose made it look like scanlines as W101 has a lot of them to do the sudo CRT look. Maybe create some sort of theme to blend them all.

 

I tried to be as kind as I could this time so I am sorry if I come across as jerkwad this round.

No worries, I get what you're trying to say!  Unfortunately, I have very limited resources, so creating a far more complex and unique flavor to my channel art will require someone with the resources to do so.  I will, however, keep this in mind, as I have been waiting until I grow bigger to create "unique flavors" for both my avatar and media pages!

 

Simply put, I'm still a nobody, and until I'm a somebody, I may just be wasting my time working on looking fabulous without the content and clout!  So I'm biding my time by making incremental steps, hehe 

 

Thank you for your feedback!

It's a bit busy but I like what you are trying to do with the image. I'd remove a couple of characters, focus in your bullet points by making them a bit larger and perhaps outline them so they pop.

Have you ever tried Paint.net or Gimp? Gimp is a bit on the advanced side but is 100% free and Pain.net is the free light version of Paint pro

Yea, I originally wanted the screen to be more like a UI, and be a guide for pushing buttons for stuff about my show or subscribing, but unfortunately, due to the aspect ratio of the screen against the narrow "safe zone" of the YouTube channel art, it didn't work like I wanted, lol...

 

But thank you, I'll focus on that in the inevitable next iteration!

I use GIMP  Unfortunately, I find it lacks the montage abilities I'm familiar with when I used to have Photoshop.  Either way, I'll figure something out eventually!
