I'm not even gonna bother telling you that I looked up YoshiStar's paintips to make this, or that it took more than an hour, because honestly, I don't think you guys care wether it's the Mona Lisa or a 1 year olds scribble, you automatically hate it if I make it.
2- Thank you, former mortal enemy! :)
3- Yes I am
I can tell that you are improving, and you must be listing to our advice now, so here we go:
The characters are choppy and floating, but the bg looks good. The flaming head on the spine doesn't bleong, and the logo is really bad, and doesn't mention paradise panic. Mabey ask someone to help with a new logo. The screen borders don't go with the box, and the font you used is really bad. However, I do like the concept, and I could see Sega making this. The summary on the back, IMO, is really good and official sounding. I don't mean to nit pick, I'm just trying to help. :)
4- Mostly paint, with a bit of paint.net
5-...yeah pretty much
6- Thanks, and "bleong"?!
7- I made every box between this and DDR:Peanut Butter Jelly Time at least 50% on paint.net, some entirely
10-I have gimp!
I just don't use it XD
Kidding, I use it for taglines every so often
11- I made DDR PBJ and Pokemon XD (deleted) ENTIRELY on them, along with several like the hedgehog trio almost entirely!
#9, You should stick just to Paint.Net
It is a way better program than Paint. I also suggest you might wanna get GIMP. Gimp is a very good program. If not,And you really wanna improve,Go check out a Youtube vid of getting photoshop cs3/cs4 for free.
One thing confuses me, If you have both GIMP and Paint.net... WHY DONT YOU USE THEM?! I'm not talking about just the tagline or to render an image, I mean make a frickin' box 100% on these programs!! Yes I know their hard, do you think I just magically became GIMP master overnight? No I didn't. I played around with it a bit, got use to the controls and read up some turtorials online. And since then I have got much better. If you dont believe me, take a look at my pages and view my boxes. I first started using GIMP on my Animal Crossing box and I started to use it 100% to make boxes on my WarioWare box. Notice anything from after my WarioWare box to before it? Yeah, thats what I thought.
Sigh.....
I shouldn't even bother.
Honestly, GIMP is not hard to use, but it's not like most bother learning how to use it.
Here, I'll relate your situation to my own, when I also was 12 years old (what was it? Three years ago now?). I learned how to use GIMP! It may take longer for some, and I still don't know everything about it, but it's better to use all your resorces than to half-ass something in Paint. Please, have some decency.
I'm sorry you feel that way S_D, this is actually one of your better ones, still though, I think you should fiddle around with the fonts, and try to pick some other ones besides Geneva, or Helevetica.
paint is by far the easiest system to use but it looks messy and choppy i used to make mine on paint but now i use pse 5 if you used paint.net 100% your boxes would be hillarious and look good. but photoshop is the easiest system to use besides paint try using it if you can

The box itself isn't that good (IMO), but I can tell that you've been trying to improve (and you have), nice work. :)

#6 If he was listening to our advice, he wouldn't still be using Paint.

#7, he did try gimp AND paint.net (or so he says) and at least he looked up really good tutorials on how to use paint.

OK, the logo doesn't look good, the text is to plain, the screen shot things look weird, and the template looks... um weird. 1/5

Silver and Sonic are obviously choppy and shadow not so much.
Needs a defferent fonts on the back.
...Why is the sonic battle logo on the side?!?! 3/5
