Wow! I'm really digging it. It's unique in how Jerry's back is to the camera. It's very classy for sure, and I love the textures and effects. :rockon:

I know you may not want to share how you make your sigs, but do you use Photoshop CS2? How do you get all the cool textures and various effects? Is it just different brushes or just alot of messing around? :D

I think it's great, but...

What is the really bright white spot on his right arm? My first thought was that it was a tunnel of some kind.

His head looks too shiny.

I think the white jersey paint is too luminous.

The font for Rice just doesn't seem to fit for me. (something about the contrast of the three fonts, if you include his actual jersey)

On the other end,

The background is excellent.

Color composition is pleasing.

The gradient on the name "Jerry" and font is very appealing.

The transformed images of Rice have a pleasing ratio and position.

Great choice of picture.

The diffuse white around Rice is also nice.

Just my 2 cents, everyone has their own opinion. Obviously your stuff is top drawer, but you asked us to nit pick!

I just took another look, and wanted to add that the overall color and shadow are really amazing. If anything, I would do something with your central light spot, because my brain was trying to make sense of it in a way that detracted from what I think you meant. Your call on the jersey lettering luminosity, I guess it appeals to everyone else. Well done!
