My second attempt at a banner this week. I could not fucking figure out how to put that stroke border on top of the stock photo.
My blending also still suck.

3 things:

1- To put a stroke around the entire banner: make a new layer on top of everything, select all, Edit -> Stroke

2- Don't put an outer glow on the cut.

3- Gotta work on the text selection. Go to www.dafont.com it has a ton of free options. Also, I prefer a much more simple font as you've noticed I'm sure.

Good luck.

What shep said.

Especially the outer glow. Outer glow suck on your cuts. Makes it look amateur as shit. Experiment with blending/fading.

You actually put effort into yours though and made it look nice.
