Made this poster in GIMP for a friend's Karaoke show. I sent him the XCF so he could change the text for his different venues. He had never heard of GIMP, so was cool not to have to say "go and pirate Photoshop to edit this".
Comments/questions welcome!

I like the concept. The mike looks great with the flames rolling around it. My one concern is the letters bottom left.
Those need to be sharper in my opinion.

All in all nicely done. :)

i wonder what kind of karaoke evening that was, lol
probably hot :mrgreen:
but then again, isnt there some painting of Dante in a freezing hell ? :evilgrin

jokes aside...
the flaming mik is great !
the evil grinning bearded face is cool and very fitting too
same with the Dj Dante logo

it seems to be a bit empty at the top
but the overall look is great in my opinion !

nice work !

Great work but have to agree with Esper about the top looking empty and the text seems a bit crowded at the bottom, possibly in the top right you could have the inferno text and bottom left the white text to create a more balanced image.
