Banner making is addicting!!!

Wow, I never would have thought making a banner would be so addicting. I see a lot of banners out there that are just pictures, so I decided I wanted to do something more. My first idea was the Captain Canada. So I spent way too long learning how to use photoshop, but got it done eventually. After that, it just started blooming into its own creation. I put the Mackenzie brothers on the writing and then I moved on to my crown jewel of achievement. On the right hand side I found a great looking stage and decided to put Bullwinkle on it since he always is on stage in the show pulling out something from his hat. This gave me a bright idea. I should have him pulling out Rusty the Boy Robot from the hat since Rusty is from my favorite show "Big Guy and Rusty". Then I thought Rusty needed to be shooting something so I found a picture of He-man then linked it all together with a little bit of photoshop magic. Add a little Night Crawler teleporting away from the scene and Snoopy fleeing in his shot down flying dog house, and I thought i had a winner. Yet, once I started I couldn't stop. I decided it needed more to it. Thus, I created the opera house background. If you look carefully you will see Abe Lincoln in the background with Betty Boop on his lap and a piece of history about to happen just around him. Capped off with Dudley Do-Right, I am finally satisfied with my creation, but only after a solid 10 hours (being new to photoshop, I was a little slow at it) of work.
