I made a banner/signature in Photo Shop this morning :3
Two versions. One with brushes, and the other, without brushes.
with brushes
without brushes
What I did:
I enhanced colors(burn, dodge, hue & saturation) .Cropped it. Added lighting. Added new colors. Added brushes. Tweaked brightness and contrast. Adjusted curves. Added text. Made a new text layer (the same text (splash)) >Motion blur. I inserted my name :3
So, which is better?
