i think what you did wrong with jordan is that you like blended the background into jordan, so if you look at it now only the text stands out. so fade the text a bit and maybe put something around jordan like a glow or duplicate gausian blurred layer

I quite like it, if the text was better it'd look excellent.

2nd one is pretty nice except the 5 doesnt seem to fit well there. Can you post a version with it elsewhere just for the sake of seeing it because I keep thinking that section is a state with his number on it signifying he runs it or something.

Anquan Boldin

Im a big fan of simple, clean cut walls so i probably wont be making many things with deep backgrounds and lots of effects. Both have the same "feel" to them

What do u think?

The Boldin one is good, the TMac one isn't. All the T-mac one is is brushing, text, and a pasted picture. Lacks depth.

^^LMAO.

Boldin one looks pretty good and simple. It has a sorta streamlined effect which looks nice. Keep it up.

All I have to say about the Boldin one is that the text would look better close to that grey bar, and the pic of Boldin has a lot of noise. You can use the blur tool (not the filter, the tool) at a low setting and take it to some of the areas (particularily the red parts of the jersey and his arms.) But the colours and design are great. Good font choice.
