Not bad. Username doesn't stick out enough IMHO. Maybe a different color/thicker font? Edges around the truck on the right are a little rough. What program are you using?

Don't use my sig as an example, I have a tendency to put more work into things for others and much less into things for myself. LOL

Not bad for your first time! I agree with the font though..I'm not a big fan, it doesn't pop enough.
You might also want to use the "blend" brush and smooth out the edges on your truck.

I personally use polygon lasso when I cut things out in photoshop with a 5 pixel feather, works good and ends up looking good.
I turn up the transparency on all the layers too so the background kind of shows through, just helps in blending everytyhing together I find. (I might have gotten a little carried away with my Blazer in this one though, it's pretty faint.)
btw, nice font SISK, Did you get it where I think you did?

I agree with the opacity/fading oktain...I also turn the opacity down a notch..it blends better IMO.
And I got this font from a general free font website...I can't remember which one. I'll look for it though and post a link.

zeedeevil21, I like your design. It shows your truck in a nice presentation way, and draws attention to your headlights.
I also agree that the font seems out of place though. Wrong color/feel, and too slim.

One more thing, is that a zombie or the Wishmaster on the far left? Looks like an eye by the passenger headlight...

You need a different font. By the way it seems your lights don't fit properly.
