I like the 3rd one the best. I like that the words are centered, but when it's centered in both directions it just dosen't look right to me. If I stitch this one up, I was thinking I would stitch up the side with the ducks.

Hey, I was shocked to discover that nobody had made a SMW2:Yoshi's Island banner, so I sought to fix this. This is from "Touch Fizzy, Get Dizzy!" I ahem *borrowed* the font from Servotron's SMW 1 banner as the fonts are the same. Hope you don't mind :thief :unsure: :Pray

Let me know what you think.

I think the third is the best too... looks good to me though, hopefully johloh will accept it. :D

My only concern, is there is a lot going on in that banner... Most of them are just background...

Here's one that I made. I plan on stitching the FF6 sprites soon. Let me know if you think I need to make the Sprite Stitch . com bigger.

trombone - I like the duckhunt, but i think the background needs to be enlarged for a larger pixel size. to fit in with the others and make the stitching prominent. The R in spRite stitch looks a little odd too.

ice - looks good.

virus - yeah, the sprite stitch title needs to be more prominent.
