Honestly man, im not a fan. All you have done is got a font and changed the colour and moved it over abit. I like the channel art though. Just spend more time on your logo, okay

4/10

So from what I can see, I can say that you're pretty new to graphics right?

My critique would be to get out of the mind set of creating YouTube banners as fast as you can.

On the work itself, grab a nice colour palette from Adobe Kuler, experiment more with fonts and placement of text.

Make it visually pleasing and try make it more professional looking, stick to clean fonts that don't already have a texture or overlay.

Imo, rounded fonts like the "Deetay Designs" one aren't the best to use in this case.

Use colours you like

Hope this helps.

Avatar/Logo:
Personally I think the avatar looks clean but if you were to use it as a logo I would make it more than just moved text, think about what you could do with it try different things (7/10)

Channel art:
The channel art I'm less of a fan off, I think the font used at the top and bottom doesn't suit the theme of the middle design it sticks out like a sore thumb, kinda looks like someone did the main design and you just added to it...
Although I'm not a fan of the logo thing in the middle the 3d edge effect is pretty cool looking. (4/10)

Just my opinion though
Also not everyone's gonna like what yo do man, I've had people say they really like my logo and others say they hate it or prefer the first draft

Thank you for the feedback, I'm new to GFX and I'm learning, also the logo in the middle is the logo for Air Rising, the clan I'm in.

On the channel art I noticed that you have 3 styles going on. Your name has no effects at all and the top and bottom text have this cheap looking texture to them. I like the effect on the logo the best, I think it's called fake 3D.
