Great banner, Vicks! I like the general feeling and the overall look. A while I back tried making a rainy banner for TR5 banner and it looked bad in small scale so you obviously got it just perfect! And I like the wording. Is that a quote?

Thanks Lior. I kind of cheated with the rain since the picture of Spidey has rainy background, I pasted it three times to cover the length of the banner and then did a texture fade to blend the layers in. I was surprised it worked okay. As for the writing, nope, it is what I feel knowing that Spidey is going to have to confront the darkness in him and I feel that everyone has darkness or evil of some sort within them that at one time or another we have to face. Woah, that was deep! LOL!!

Well, still cool no matter how you duplicated the rain. And that is deep, good job with the sentence…I like it even better now. ;D

Its really good Vicks - you are a natural. I cant believe you changed your it though for your NCIS/Dean one as I know how attached you become to them

Thank you all for the kind comments. And yes Ali, NCIS/Supernatural will be coming back, I just thought I'd have a wee short break until Saturday or so and show Spidey!

The blending is fantastic Vicks. Love the Bending of the 'T' for Tomb and 'R' for raider. I think it would be nice to see the 'R' the same so its more equal. I am jealous, wish I could make banners/wallpapers - havent even got the right program

They were in the same layer and I added blending options to the layer itself not the individual text.

WOW! See I always knew that you were a natural at this!
How long did it take you to do? Are you finding that its easier to blend now after some practice?

Oh sorry - I know nothing about graphics. When I think of a new concept I will personally request you to make me a new banner xxxx No offense taken - don't be silly! I'm happy to have a go for you, when making a banner, if you don't like it, don't use it! WOW! See I always knew that you were a natural at this! How long did it take you to do? Are you finding that its easier to blend now after some practice? Thanks Chris! It took me about 20 minutes to do. I'm not entirely satisfied with the blends... I want to learn how to use gradient maps and textures like you do! Am waiting for you to finish your exams before I get PM'ing you like mad! Vicks, you rock!!!!! Awesome banner! ;D Thank you Lior!

Am waiting for you to finish your exams before I get PM'ing you like mad! lol, see I think that the blending looks fine Well I'm happy to report that I'm all done exams so I am now free for about 4 months! Feel free to ask me how to do something. Gradient maps are easy to use... just depends what you are try to make/acheive etc. textures are fun too... just copy and paste it onto the top of all the layers and just play with the blending modes, then usually I add a a GM or 2 ;D
