I really like how you play with the textures and the use of negative space. So original too.

Really like your use of textures/you text placement.

Especially like that Jennifer Aniston Icon (2nd from last)

Also meant to say that your banner/header making is also awesome!

How exactly do you get your text looking like that? I always have trouble with my usage of text ...

How did you do the text for the britney_stills header/banner? It's just so ... nice. Like its really smooth and not too overpowering - mine always end up looking out of place - I can't really describe it :/

I try to always use the Dropper Tool to get a color from the header itself or I'll just use white or something that matches either way. Then I just scroll through all my fonts until I find something that looks appealing. If your font looks choppy or something, change the anti-alias to "smooth". Though, in that particular I think it was set on "sharp" because the font "Plantagenet Cherokee" doesn't look bad in "sharp".

I love your use of textures and your coloring is great. Your use of text is well done too, I wish I could manage to use text, lol. Beautiful icons and your banners and headers are gorgeous. I love the 'welcome to redhour' one.
