You have to use other colors. At the moment the banner is very bland and boring. Your light and light source is mis placed. When you make a piece, imagine your render and imagine what something you consider perfect (or made by your favorite graphic designer would make) and try to recreate it with your own spin.

You don't seem to be understanding flow. I'll show you where your sig flows.
Or something like that. Really, there is no flow at all. Flow is the direction in which your sig "moves". The way you add your C4D's makes your sig "move" in just a whole bunch of different directions. This is also the reason why C4D spam isn't good - it lowers the quality and ruins the flow.
This is a good example of flow, since Link is looking in the direction the C4D's are going (aside from the bubbles to the left).
This is a poor example of flow, since the C4D's are going everywhere.

The lightest red should be to the immediate left of the render head in a radial direction with the source being no bigger than the renders head. The dark areas are the outer corners, and then additional light spots near the hand and chest.
@Gliscor
The Mew2 one.. It looks quite fine to me although it flows all over... Cause his (or her) pose makes it like it is blasting stuff everywhere.. That's just me though... =P
EDIT
@PM899
Could you send me the resources for the Blaziken sig please? I want to make one with those... =D

Either or is fine. I'd probably prefer if you do both though. Speaking of which, I'd like to see some entries, the theme is Spiderman.
Well, lilsparks, wait no longer. I am SUPER-proud of this one. I think that after lurking this and looking at Gliscor's explanation of flow, I kind of got the idea.
It is good. I see you have used a splatter brush. Also what text is that? Asenine?
Very nice! A few thing can be worked on, namely the font but I can see you worked very hard on this and it shows.
Yah, got Photoshop Elements 7 with the tablet. That text is actually Century Gothic.
I want to redo the signature I had done with that render, works great with clipping masks.
@FatalAeroX: You should cut off a portion of the width on both side. It's empty space that's not needed. The lighting on the render should be on the right of the face at the top, but very subtle. You can deepen it by adding black to the left and right bottom corners.
Definitely an improvement, KIU

Clipping Mask can kinda fix that if you want to fix that.
Photoshop or GIMP?
