Trying some new stuff out.

+

I like the way the text plays off the BG.

v2 for the win, I just like the way it flows from that direction.

i like v3 .... i think it looks better without the text

Thanks for the comments everyone. :/

New ones up though.

There was something about the top one which threw it off for me, and I didn't know what it was until now: The shades that Jay Z is wearing are not reflective, and so the one side (the left side in v1) should show the bg behind them. Apart from that the idea is pretty nice, although I am simply thrown off by the aforementioned problem.

The second is just too bright for me to really like, sorry man, althought the smudging does look good.

The first was just really an experiment of that gradient shit, I didn't really care about the actual tag.
The new one is too bright though?
Maybe I'll try to darken it a little.
