Im sorry, but I really dont like that banner, there is no blending at all and the brushing ins't too good. It has potential though. Also the alignment isn't very good in the template.
I won't comment on the design, since you didn't do very much. And don't come around here asking for +rep because you showed something.
The space inbetween boxes isnt even close to the same. Like Hydra Said, Align your boxes better. I don't like the animation much either, work on a better banner before you attempt animating them. I do however, like the top and bottom accents of the boxes
That skin reminds me of an extremepixels skin right away. The text is too big for that template that is too small.
ok i updated the layout i totally changed the banner animation added buttons stripes and fixed the allignment problem.
