I like it, but It's quite hard to read, for two reasons: not enough contrast between the black and the dark red, and also the fact that the picture is in the middle of the text... It took me a while to figure out... I would move the picture to the side, and not split the poem in 2...
Just my opinion - you asked

That should be the right size now. What program do you use to make them?

The writing is a little hard to see but you could give it an outer glow or change it to white? It looks good though!


( Ahh, ok. It`s a gif file that you`ve used. That is probably why it`s so big. I just noticed the stars twinkle, is that why it`s GIF? )

It looks much better now! I love the red but the text stands out so much better in white


I just did what Laureen did, saved it, opened it up in Photoshop and saved as JPEG in SAVE FOR WEB option
