Love Eichi-sama's "Zero No Tsukaima" banner! Excellent style, adorable and moe.
Not too sure about the "Air" one though... I think that's because due to my personal taste, it's a bit dark.

I like weird_dot_gurl's "Pita Ten" submission, it's cute. The cloud may seem 'simple' but I think that fits the general theme of the image, its focused on cuteness so.

AngelLily's "Gakuen Utopia Manabi Straight" banner is nice, good theme (love the round pink shadow under the characters - great detail!) nice middle text but the characters seem a bit aliased,... maybe resample or resize differently?

Hmm I'm sorry Smithy, but what do you mean by aliased? ^^;

The edges, you mean? I'm not pro with photoshop, so I don't really get the difficult terms... But I'll see what I can do. If I don't come back it's because I tried and made things worse lol

I really like that banner weird_dot_gurl. The touch up on Anna's water float came out nicely, but the text on the center image seems really pixelated.

I had two meanings in mind when I named the site: one is only Japanese with 'E' as in picture and 'shuushuu' as in collection. The other is a mix of Japanese and English with 'e' as in e-mail and 'shuushuu' as in collection. Anyway, I'm not familiar with 電気 being read as 'ii' but if you can confirm that is correct, I'll add it as is.
When I wrote the kanji for that, I thought the e- was used like e-mail, so I used 電気 - normally read denki. But with furigana, you can cheat! So I made it read 'ii' even though it's technically denki (the ã

I looked at this banner and it seems to have some compression noise in it. If I add it I know it will drive me crazy later on so before I add it could you save it in either PNG format or at a lower JPG compression? Otherwise, it's good, kawaii ^_^

Cute and doesn't as much noise as the other banner... however, the strawberry has some artifacts. Is it possible to clean that up a bit?

Your wish is my command! (Unless you wish for the magic crystal fragments; those must be found with your own power. :wink: )
