  You can do some logos, perk spreads and equipment pics for your builds. It's not necessary but it makes the presentation much better.

  Most of the people who commented on your builds and gave you the advice to look at other builds is just to help you. If you take a look at (as example): The Obsidian Sentinel, you can pick up some great inspiration about the presentation off your builds. And if you aren't good at photoshopping perkspreads or other things, just ask around if someone wants to help you with it. I'm not trying to be negative, just giving some friendly advice! And I've got to admit your building skills have improved compared to your first build. So just do something with everyone's advice and keep on building characters!

  Just a helpful hint on improving builds, and asking oother blog members nicely to help you out:

  TZ or Twisted for Build Vids

  Shuuiketsu Nero for Perk Spreads/Charts and Equipment Charts

  RuneRed, Vazgen or other members for screenshots.

  If you ask nicely people will help you out man, we all help each other out, it's a friendly blog, and constructive criticsm, we're not putting you down.

  I intentionally didn't start with my best builds. (I don't even remember which one I did first, just the lack of success.)

  I keep looking, and not seeing the difference in the builds suggested.  I'm just not visual enough to get it.  Presentation has nothing to do with the content of my builds, nor how they work, just whether people will read them, or not.  Yes, I would really appreciate ANYONE whose better with the visual stuff, and formatting to help me.  I can P-shop, but everything comes out sucky, which is why I mostly just screencap.

  As Nelaf also said, just ask some of the other members if they want to help out. Just ask them nicely and they will probably help you. Shuuiketsu Nero is great at making Perk Spreads and Equipment Spreads. RuneRed, Vazgen or other members for screenshots. We're all here to help each other out if it's possible. And a small tip from me: Think about the kind of Font you use for a build. Using a different Font can also be usefull thing for setting a theme. (sorry if my English is bad. It's not my native language)

  Have you tried putting the HUD opacity to zero? That could help with your screenshots.

  If you play on PC, 'tm' command is useful while taking screenies, it makes the HUD go away completely.

  If you mean my Avatar, it's cropped from Robert Mappelthorpe's "Lady Lisa Lyon."  I like the Juxtaposition of Strength, and beauty, because it's something I strive for in my builds, and life.
