Please just post links, you're stretching the forums. It's okay for a start, experiment a little and go past the basic formula (I know you can do a lot in Fireworks, personally) and you'll be great at this. P.S. THe pictures could use some sharpening and there needs to be a main focus to the image, something that grabs the attention and that's hard to do with monotones.
i had to dull it alot in order to get that grain effect. if i didn't, it would look REALLY cut and paste type...thanks though!!
I find the Soldier logo to be very boring and overused. Be more creative, and use more colors (but not to much).
They're not so bad, but they are very simple and not very complex. Keep trying though, you're getting there.
