lol don't give up. you do have some awesome ideas, but that is exactly right, they lack "focus" excellent concepts though, just check out other people's banners, find your own nitch and keep it up!

You have some great ideas in these, it would just help if you understood your program better!
I know what that's like, I don't know much about my program and it makes executing ideas really hard!
The pictures you use are really appropriate and good.

I really quite like the Glory one, I like that it is all mental and unfocused like Glory herself could be.

Too cool for a custom title. Wait...

Be on the lookout for a new section on this board for tutorials, by me! I wanna help you all become skilled graphic artists! Although I use Photoshop, I am sure that my tuts will help you get an idea about general composition and how to make banners look nice.

You really shouldn't beat yourself up. These are actually pretty good. Everyone has to start somewhere and I can assure you that a lot of my old banners weren't very good. It took awhile, and reading some tutorials, before I started to improve. Once you find a good program and get used to how it works you'll be a lot happier with you're banners. P.S. The restless/Tara banner is great.

Raz, you're fine!
It takes a while to get used to how to make banners, I'm still learning every day how to make them better! Yours right now is the best you've made yet! You're improving every time and that's great, it really is!

^ Really like your new banner. Great concept, and all.
I would suggest a bolder font for the words though, just because of the busy backgroun. Otherwise. it's really nice!

I like the new one, but it's a little bit bland. Perhaps try playing with colour balance/gradients as well as brightness and contrast, just to brighten & sharpen the attractiveness of the banners.
The imagesand cutting look good though!
