The banners are excellent, however, you should place the text better with better font.

Let me guess; mspaint? Get Gimp here.
Besides signatures, the GIMP can also do animations. Believe me; an example of a piece of art from GIMP is in my sig. And the best thing is that it is completely FREE!

First, download this.
Then, you need to download the actual GIMP right here.
Hope I helped!

Also, a handy hint: whatever you do, NEVER SAVE AS A JPEG. Always choose either .png (for sigs), or .gif (for sprites and animations).
I will be honest; you look like you have the talent, but you've not yet used it. The revamps are a prime example - a good start, but ruined by trivial problems.
Finally, I do advise getting GIMP. It outclasses MSPaint by miles.

Um.. they're all pngs.
I've got gimp but I want to know how to make an entire area of colour transparent. And how do I do animations?

To make things transparent..
1: Open the image you want to make transparent.
2: Click the eyedropper tool, and click on the background.
3: Layer -> transparency -> add alpha channel. IF YOU CAN'T CLICK ON IT, IT MEANS IT ALREADY HAS AN ALPHA CHANNEL.
4: Go to Select -> By Color.
5: Click on your image.
6: Go to Edit -> Clear. You will notice that your background has turned a grey and black checkered thing..that's what will be transparent.
7: MAKE SURE YOU SAVE AS GIF.
8: Upload your image, and put it on psypokes!
It's that simple; once you get the hang of it, you will know it by heart!
Hope I helped.

Try brushing your backgrounds and using different layers to blend the images for a better effect. Remember: practice makes perfect.

Do you have bragging rights?
The simple answer is no. No you do not. While some are good the rest such as the sprites are sloppy and untidy. Tidy them up and then I'll reconsider.

It would be nice to know which sprites you consider untidy.
Just so I could know what you mean.

Sorry if I sound a little harsh, but I really don't like the sigs. You took a backround from the internet, took some Sugimori artwork, slapped them together, and added some fonts . Yay. Try using fonts from dafont.com, they are very good. Also, it would look better if the sigs' backrounds matched the pokemon's colors better, like this:
And for the sprites, they're pretty good actually.
