    Its not bad, just a bit simple. I would hunt down some halo graphics(like a character, vehical, etc.) and incorporate something like that into it. The flash is fine.

    hope that helps,

    I think the Halo logo should be on the left side and not the right.

    Overall besides Halo 3 sucking, it is a very clean looking banner. Not to flashy.

    If I was to add something I would add maybe a helmet or the "legendary" medal to there somehow.

    It's actually pretty good for a first attempt! It's just plain, that's all. Some simple gray/watermarked imagery in the background would make that look killer...

    I would do as already suggested and get Halo graphics, but I would add the graphics as a background layer and decrease opacity so the graphics makes a sort of light faded background texture behind everything. This would help give the banner more excitement, rather than the basic black-to-grey gradient that is there right now.

    Good job for first banner!

    BuLLeTz, it's a nice banner but you might want to try remaking it with a different font as it's a bit plain.
