Really good for a first try, I actually like them both. Text is good on the second one, although the smaller text below main text needs opacity turned down.

7/10 for first.
8/10 for second considering it's you're first try.

You have talent and could become a really good designer I tell you... Once thing to learn on this forum is, listen to experienced people like 'Lyrical G'(Probably the best designer on this forum) and JealY(Maybe not the best designer, but the guy you go to for resources and he is a good critic... If he doesn't like it, it's probably not good.) :)

Keep trying, and you'll get better and better. Incase you need some good renders use this website; www.clantemplates.com/renders/gallery this is probably the best website for renders I know of :) Good luck, keep up the good work ;)

I just made a new picture for my friend... He's plays World of Warcraft, and wanted one.

He said he likes it plain and simple, so i tried to make it that ^_^ but add a bit of quality into it.

Not as good as the two above and the text is pretty bad in this one... I like all the stuff to the left. But the pic isn't as nice... 6/10 for this one mate. Keep trying :D

First one is aight but the font doesn't match, I'm not gonna say it's wack because it could work but the placement and size are poo. 2nd one is wizack as a whole but its great first piece and stepping stone to better work.

The Pie is poo, poor text placement and toooo bland, I know you wanted simple but that isn't simple it's bland.

Fonts are the hardest thing to get right in a peice, and can be fery difficult to work with. You need to get placement, the font and the colour perfctly right for an awesome peice.
