Hah thanks man, but i dont consider mine nearly as good as some of the peoples on here. Big J's comes to mind, that shit is tight. I remember X-Locs old one, I actually like it better than your new one Loc, they both coo though.. M-1's has tight coloring, Mr. Typcee's is fucking SICK, .. I know im forgetting a lot though, my bad..
anyway, it took a while to make mine but it was more all that crazyness backround shit you see. There is a bigger version of it on 8.5 x 11 paper that is trippy shit, goes well with my board name (psilo...cybin)..
Use Photoshop 7.0 or somethin, you can find it on the net around... like IRC or whatever. Websites and shit. Then learn how to use it, then good graphics just take time.
