Hi, new to creating things like this but very fascinated by it. Can someone give me their take on how they think these 2 banners were created, I can not find anything in the forums dealing with cropping and adding multiple layers, adding glow, and text also. I know its pretty complex but after viewing some of the images made with Paint.Net I have faith it can be done here. Thank you.
