These are my art pieces. I'm not that good at art,but anyway:

An avatar I made using a free program called Inkscape,mainly made out of compiling two images of a level Triple J made, "Sandbar Ridges". Because Triple J's levels are more nature-like,and I love nature too.
-MISSING SOMEWHERE-
Another avatar made using the same program,with those things called "Filters". Was made completely from scratch.
Last Legacy Chapter 2 banner: show 
A banner I made for Last Legacy: Chapter 2 Null Space.and Updates. Took some shots of the updates,and using Inkscape to compile the images together. Getting used to Inkscape now.
I made this when I got bored of doing a school project. Also made using Inkscape. This piece is completely made from scratch.
Currently not taking requests. Once I find any of my old forgotten images,I'll post them here. Comments are of course welcome!

@subtitle: that's one of the douchiest things you can say; "why don't you people appreciate my art?"
Avatar 1: much too small, inconsistent, ugly, stretched past the original aspect ratio
Avatar 2: somewhat decent, but the beveling in the interests of a "pop-out effect" does not work here. corner is cluttered. shapes are unlinked.
Chapter 2 banner: it's copypasting four images together and then painting a brush over them
also, it's not compiling images together (that would refer to something more like an album or collection or such, rather than what you're addressing), I'd say it's more like stitching or just putting things together

Hm, okay, I'll review then.
Yeah, I actually browse this forum :p
Avatar 1: Yeah, it's a bit strange, because you just compressed two screenshots and then put your name in the middle. And I think this green background is a bit... Awkward.
Avatar 2: Probably the best here. I liked this 3d effect you gave to the image, I think the only bad things here are that yellow circles in the bottom. They look unfitting with the avatar itself. But overall it's a good one.
Last Legacy Chapter 2 Banner: Same thing as avatar 1, only copypasta of various screenshots separated by a faded line. But the worst thing is that you used the same transition between all the images, thus making it fitting for some, and unfitting for all the others.
I recommend you to re-think about your art a bit, because sometimes it's better starting from zero than actually only putting screenshots together. You did a good work with the second avatar, mainly because it was the only one you didn't use copypasta and then put a text or something, you needed to be creative with this one, and that's what makes an art good after the quality. I don't know if the problem is with the program you use to make the art, but I recomend using Gimp, or PhotoFiltre, that's what I used before.
Why don't I use it anymore? Well, it's a long story that I don't want to tell here :p

I agree with the other people who posted here, the second avatar looks the best and it's probably because it's original and not a bunch of screenshots put together. Keep working on it, and you'll most likely improve.

I really do like your newest avatar. It's got a good colour scheme and is completely original. My only small nitpick is the bright blue in the middle of the first D. Personally I don't like it, because it doesn't really fit the colours. But other than that, it's a good avatar.
