So when you look at a banner or something, the text shouldn't just look like it's been 'dumped' onto it. In fact the text should help it flow, and make it look better. If the text doesn't make it better, then what is it doing there in the first place? We learned in design that each element should enhance a piece, or you don't need it.

=D thanks Gem! I really would like to improve on it someday. How do you mean? I mean do you mean some other way outside of the "text" tool? For me being someone with only basic knowledge it's all I knew how to do. I just made it as close as I could to match the style of the image and color scheme (except for the Shikamaru one, that text looks just awful, but I think it's one of the best I made outside of that). Which do you think looked the best and why out of curiosity? Ok, a Neo and Gem Photoshop tutorial sounds like it would be perfect to help me learn more now xD
