    OK, did you save as .jpg or .png? And the rings are way too blocky. Other than that, its OK.

    Well then I guess the blockiness is just my opinion then. But the whole thing just looks so low-quality for some reason.

    It looks to plain and unfitting. None of those objects work well together, it looks like you just added renders together.
    Also the color is bad. I think part of what makes a good sig is vibrant colors, or good contrast between dark ones. It just has this old 90's computer feel to it. But then again, this is all a matter of opinion.

    I say try dodging some areas. Plus, I like the idea of the Olympics as a whole. I wouldn't single out one person. But that's just my opinion

    maybe try putting the fencer on the other side by going edit, transform, flip horizontal, then move over. That way hes in the light instead of dark.
