I just finished my first blog banner. Same deal as last time, this is from a painting of artist Todd Lockwood. Cover art for the same book series also.

Tips from more seasoned photoshop users would be great, I still cant figure out the best way to cut things from a picture. Magnetic Lasso is a bit too random.

Well I guess that's all, leave any feedback you want.

Update: I just updated my profile banner as well.

Here for comparison are the originals:
