This was inspired by a song called Driftwood: A Fairytale by Cursive. Listen to it, it's absolutely wonderful. Ratings and constructive criticism are very much welcome.

I like it, but it seems like it's a bunch patterns thrown onto an image o.O. I love your LIAR text though, very good, and fits the idea, but not the image. Overall it's decent

When I first read it, I laughed out loud, because I thought it was just a random spurt thrown onto a banner.

Overall, I really like the design, the different patterns set it off I think, and the consistent color scheme is well designed too. The mosiac tiling is a nice touch, and it's placement is extremely well planned out.

On the other hand, the right side pattern somewhat seperates itself from the rest of the banner, taking away from overall unity that a banner should have IMO.

Great design though, keep it up.

Thanks guys

Shift: heh, I loved the LIAR LIAR bit, too. I was scrolling through fonts and struck gold.

L_L, did you mean the curved line on the right? I was trying to figure out something to do to make the text easier to read, but not just completely blend into the entire sig. that's all I could come up with.

No, notice the mosiac pattern on the right, how the left borderline of that section just sort of drops off into the left part of the background? That's what I was referring to..
