il be rooting for you for this to be the next banner :)
lovely work

this might probably win

I wouldn't say it's boring, but beautiful and warm instead! ;) High quality work. This could easily become the next banner indeed! :]

I think it's gorgeous! I think the only difficulty you may have in getting up there is that it's not super wintery. X3 The textures are fantastic and your colours are lovely as usual <3

But its PRETTY

Very pretty! I hope to see it up there!

I think a little simplicity will be a breath of fresh air, personally! :D It certainly looks lovely!

Especially because this one really lets the imagination run wild. I know it just a banner, but it's good when things do that.
If you look deeply for a moment, you notice the light detailing on the left, and it's like; is it light shining through the branches? Where is he? What's happening? Because you're only given a hint of his surroundings and no context, it lets you wonder and I think that's brilliant.

I always wondered who chose the banners/where they came from...

Is there contests?

I'll root for you!

Oh yes, I love it!!!

wow +1

ummmmm you have my vote hands down.

This is beautiful! :D
