9.7, it draws me in.

 

3/10

too much text. i'm not gonna spend more than 2 seconds reading a banner.

 

This Cabr guys seems a bit like a bad sport, but anyways.

It is very good for what it is. Nice coloring and crown. Also, you picked the right colors for it to stand out. Not too busy and gets your point across, bravo.

Also, nice details on the background

 

sorry if i'm coming off mean to anybody here. but i don't see any harm in an honest critique.
but the purpose of a banner should be to stand out, and get the message across quickly. same things apply to poster/flyers.
if you see a flyer at school, with a ton of text, chances are that you're not going to stand there and read for 30 seconds.
these things (banners,flyers,etc.) should get the job done quick,easy, and painless.

just being honest man.

 

As an honest critique that is what he has done. He has made his statement "look at me" with the colors to draw them in with the bold text for a quick read, then if the reader is interested in the quick read, he further investigates the writing that is smaller and may venture to the site.



Don't imply that you are the only honest one here man.

 

i agree with AKW with that last post. thats a great banner.
when you look at a banner you dont have to read the whole thing...

 

well, i guess it's a matter of opinion. i'm not drawn to it, you are. that's always ok.

and i don't understand you're last statement. =/
