				Hello all,
 
I've created this banner for a Dungeons & Dragons game but I'm not entirely happy with it.  I don't know what to improve so I'm looking for feedback.
 
Thanks,
 
 
Charles

				Thank you for the warm welcome Patrick and for the feedback on my banner design.  I've incorporated the suggestions you made and I'm uploading the revised banner design for you to review, if you would like.
 
The badge wasn't necessary but I thought it provided balance.  I've removed it and increased the size of the text and the "Scales of War" logo.  The text is more readable, though I liked the way the fire in the other one was more clearly fire.  I disabled the inner glow on the text to try to make the fire more dynamic and it works but I think it might loose something in readability.  Anyway, you're feedback is appreciate.  The first revision (2) has the inner glow filter on and the second (2a) has it off.

				The colours in the forground are bright and do refelct the material gold. The back ground should be centered  but take down the opacity of the background so it no fighting between th letters(foreground) Reason for this choice the letter and background are fighting for dominance of the foreground making it harder  to read the letters . by making the background less visible it will make it be in the background
