New Background, feedback please!

Steps on how to become a decent photoshop designer:
#1: Basic photoshop tuts
#2: More basic photoshop tuts
#3: slightly advanced photoshop tuts
#4: MORE TUTS!

It's how I started a few years ago. I used to just make signature pictures for people on other forums, but after working with photoshop more and more, you come up with awesome ideas for new stuff. And of course using tutorials, and expanding on them. Don't just follow tutorials, but make something original by applying them to different things!

Some great inspiration:

Some of the stuff you find on websites like Abduzeedo or PhotoshopTutorials might not directly show you how to make a youtube background, but they do show you how to use tools, how to create effects, and are great inspiration.

And to get back to Micheals feedback:
Thanks, I do think I like the logo as it is, I don't have an exact color scheme for it, just blue in general, and the glow makes it pop out a bit better, I think.
And yes, I might add my username, I have tried lots of different ways to make text look good, but for some reason I end up not liking the design I come up with for the text. I might just follow a tutorial on some cool looking text myself.
 
It still looks good without it just is something to consider, I like the white design behind the blue logo a lot, you use it in your videos too so I would try and add that if you can, that is what I meant in my other post, the glow looks fine to me.
 
What do you think? Plain white looked bad, so did grey, so I added some 3D and texture. (only the logo part is different)

That looks much better, yeah white can look odd at times without anything added to it, you have done a good job there Dutch.
 
Yeah, pretty big change this time in Youtube, I like it. :)
1 thing though, I can't seem to post a video response anymore by going to the comments. Anyone know how to post video responses now? I use it on all the games in any series I do..
