Edit: blah. forgot the link. here it is

Thanks for the compliments guys. I did it with GIMP, following a Photoshop tutorial, so it was kinda confusing buck2

I think it's too empty though.

the 1st layer, the bottom one.
the 2nd layer is the render, and the third is the text. so it really is just basic stuff.

WOW, there's a GIMP tutorial here, and I didn't see it. would've made the job easier.

If you used Photoshop Tutorial you might want to read this one for GIMP.

It's supposed to be rocks,but doing so makes it clash with the render. so i just think of it as sand/rust.
