Certainly doesn't look bad, the 3D text on top is very well done with the depth and stuff, however most of the text is insanely tough to read. Try to avoid using those type of fonts for more than just the header aswell, important information such as pricing and your contact information should always be put in a much more formal font to ensure readability.
I also feel like the background is a little 'flat' compared to the rest of the layout, which is very well done. I notice you tried to blend an image in there, but it's a bit too subtle.
Good stuff for your first attempt!

If you look closely at both boxes there are actually samurai backround on both of them 
i set it to darken and then just put it to 11 opacity and erased it like crazy maybe i shudnt have erased it that much ill try making another one where it shows up better

I noticed after I had posted the feedback! What you could try, instead of using the erase tool, you could mess around with the opacity under blending options (right-click the layer to get there).
if you look at your computer screen from under it you see the samurai if you are like face to face with your computer its hard i guess and yeah i'm gonna try what you said can't believe i didn't think of that lol i actually just erased it your way will look much better

Looks nice, I can't read it very well though.
The main text at the top "Welcome" looks very nice and does it's job as a header all I can really say is add some effects to spice it up. All the other text is hard to read, I would suggest using a legible font for important things such prices, tos, etc. Looks good for a first project KIU mate 
Guys thank you so much for the feedback i'm taking all of it into consideration so add effects and also make clearer font to read

No problem man, keep it up!
Another thing I thought of that would look cool (in my opinion), is to make the monsters' tails go out of the background image in the bottom aswell, similar to what you did to the left and right sides of the image.

Text look over done.... No offensive and colours don't blend it, but overall for your first time, it's very good.

- I like the header that is pretty much the only thing I like.
- The colors makes me ill.
- You put stuff over the border and blended it into the border which makes it look really weird.
- The background is plain.
- There is no border at the bottom which imo looks bad.
- I have no clue what kind of shop it is, looks like "schoolboy's xariho shop" but I'm not sure.
- PLEASE, don't get me wrong it is good for being your first. I'm sorry for being this rude, but you asked for feedback and I just wrote down everything I could think of. :embar:

The banner looks fantastic. Font is kinda hard to read. Maybe make it a bit bigger in size and put a little bit of space in-between the letters?

It all looked like random symbols on there. Didn't even notice it was text,
use a more readable font. I also disilke how the dragon changes colors 3 times.
But it's not bad! Keep practicing

It will remain unedited if you put it in a seperate layer on top, above all the layers on which you've added those overlays. If you didn't do so already, try to work with as many layers as you can to avoid exactly that.
Don't be afraid to fail... Be afraid not to try.
First, welcome to graphics world and nice first try for a thread layout
Your text seems unreadable and you should change the font as well using the blending options more but not fast (take the time to try things with the opacity and stuff)
I think youve used the smudge tool on the dragon and I would say, be more carefull. The smudge tool isnt always good. It affects the quality of the render your editing.
I dont like how the dragon changes too much of colors. I know it looks cool sometimes to play with these things like overlay and stuff but I would say "Not Three Colours"
At the end of the first E in welcome, its way too dark, you should fix that.
For your first thread, not bad at all bro questions? Dont afraid to ask people that goes in the graphic section each time they log in on sythe like me and probably like ZippyGFX,...

The text, as mentioned above, is pretty annoying to read - just have the title in it if anything. Secondly I feel it ends rather abruptly, perhaps have a shape at the bottom rather than cutting it off straight under your text.. if that makes any sense

nice admin
Yeah the text and i don't like the dragons it kinda throws off the whole thing for me
Veni. Vidi. Vici
The text was already discussed, so I won't mention that. However, the dragons could be worked on and blended a little better. It's your first piece and I understand that so don't take this harshly. Also, there's a little cleaning up left to do with specs and smudges around the layout. Not bad for a first mate.
