    Great job for your first, nice banner. I wouldn't make the car stick out of the banner just because it looks sort of dumb and ugly and I would make the content boxes stick out a little, since there a little plain

    Nice job!

    Try saving it for the web, opening it up in adobe, select the part without the car sticking out, then paste it on your psd.

    Not sure if it will work, give it a try

    i dont like those tech lines going accross everywhere. its quite annying. maybe lower the opacity of it? and take some part of the tech marks off the car.

    Pretty good for first. Let me make a few suggestions.
    -Try to darken the gray boxes, as they look too bright.
    -You should try to add a "shiny" effect to it, or a glare of some sort. To the title of the boxes.
    -IMO, there is too much tech on the banner.
