New to TD, New Layout

[Harts]

Hey everyone, I thought I'd share my first attempt at a customized background.  A buddy and I use Ace of Harts as our name (There is a play on the word Harts using the spelling of my last name).

I used Photoshop to create the logo and the background itslef.  I don't have a design bone in my body but taught myslef to use the basics of Photoshop.  I'm interested in everyone's feedback.

Thanks for the forum and the software Corey.

I think its great.  The background is simple but it pops out at you.  I tried to picture it with writing and I think its going to look awesome.

Thanks!  Now I'm trying to design the actual template in TD.  I'm trying to keep it simple and clean but make it informative.  I'll post it once I have it done.

Okay, so here is what I have come up with.  Thanks to Corey for his input and everyon else for posting their ideas.
