Sorry to interject here, but, I don't quite like the font. It doesn't do the banner justice.

I think the font matches the game font doesn't it?

I like the banner, too, and I like the font. I think the crooked E looks a little funny, but all in all it looks great!!

i was trying to copy the game font..

hmm, I dont like how blurred the background image is...I'd like it better if the stitches matched up with specific pixels.

That screenshot is expanded, it looks like its about 3x its native size, which causes it to be blurred. I'm not sure why that screenshot is like that, did you enlarge it? do you have the actual one that you pulled from the emulator?

sorry if it seems like im being overly picky...

well that's the screen shoot i took off from my screen is there another way to take a screenshoot? the other option is that i can make the picture pixel buy pixel...

here is an updated one

The best way to take a screenshot from an emulator is to set the emulator screen size to it's smallest size and then use the print screen button on your keyboard. Then you paste the screen into an editing program and crop out everything except the screenshot. If you are planning to resize the screenshot, make sure that you turn off anti-aliasing, otherwise it will turn blurry when you make it bigger. Also only use the corner tabs to resize the picture so you are adding equal distance to both sides.

Hope this is useful!

keep in mind that i am on a mac, and i am using photoshop... I went into the emulator and switched some settings. i couldn't find "anti-aliasing"

here is the new one and the screen shoot i used so if any one can do better.. the SS is also smaller then the original went from Full screen to the actual size.
