Default My first PS image

This is my first image I have made(not counting a "Buy Now" button I made following a tutorial). This for a future image hosting site I plan to make. It was 100% made by me, please leave suggestions

Happy New Year

Its a good start! Whats that image under the word professional? I would maybe get rid of that and keep all the text on the same line. Also the texture behind the text makes the text a little harder to read.

Keep up the practice and just keep doing as many tutorials as possible and look at what other designers do.

Thank you for the advice, the image was supposed to look like a mini-camera. I did not have a custom shape for it.

I changed it around according to your advice

He said it was going to be a camera, but I think it needs a little work its a bit abstract. It just needs more detail and different colors.

ah, sorry! I still can't quite see it, but I think that's more because of the colours maybe?
And I really would advise you to get rid of the bevel-thingie, less is more!!
