Cut him out better, make one bigger with the rest around him, raise the opacity of the team behind him, use some different fonts...Just my 2 cents..

I assume your using PS or elements, zoom in and use the eraser, or use the magic lasso...

I did some clean up and brighten things up a bit.
What do you think?

I think there is a way to get the player to not look like he is floating. Also get the team picture in the background incorporated better. Also the text just seems like it is sitting on the poster as a left over. You need to incorporate it better. There are great pictures on there that could use better placement to make a foreground, middle ground and background, which will really make it pop. my $0.2

I like the 2nd one better than the first....so you're definitely making progress!! ;) ;)

BP's last comments seem very constructive, based on what I've seen.

However....if you're just trying to make something to print out for your son to put to put on his wall, I think you've already got a very good product for that. I bet if you did something like this for, say, another boy on the team and gave it to him or his parents, they would think it looks great!!

My 0.01 cent! :D

^^agreed with above also. This is just great for your first time. I just read over my post and it seems harsh, hope I didn't come across that way - just trying to help out.
