I've been fooling with some different facebook cover images. I think I have it narrowed down to these three. Still deciding. I'm partial to the green one.

first one is the winner for me

the green one is nice too, but too hard to read, imo

did you add all the spikes to the red one or do they come with the font ?

The green one is excellent, the colours are nice and the gold border create a senese of depth on the text as well.

No, they're part of the font.

I used layer effects more than usual, particularly inner shadow.

I think I like the first one best as it is more readable, but I love the coloring of the green one.

Sorry, I was removing old attachments to save Tux's space and got carried away. I remove all of my facebook pics once a month and just figured out that I can do it here too. I wanted to remove everything between when I first came here until a month ago but goofed. I can re upload them.

I am a pack rat, I save all sorts of stuff. Of course, when the computers die on me, I do lose it all and I manage to live without it, lol.
