Cannot read the text and it just looks like brushes on a white background cut off on the sides.

3/10

Yeah, i'm fixing that, The brush size was way to big and the brushes were covering the text, I'm uploading a much cleaner one.

EDIT: How does it look now Mike ? Hopefully over 7.

4/10. It's readable so that's a start.
The one on your status however.. -1/10.

only a 4? I mean look at how smooth it is, transparent so it goes together. I thought at least a 6 or 7 .

BUT! What should I improve on?

You should make the background a kind of dark gray, blend it with colors that go good together, for example the old black theme, black, dark gray, blue, white.

I need help making the BG transparent, I thought it was because in photoshop the background is transparent (removed the BG layer) but I can see on here that it's white and it blends in with the RG backround.

Meh I don't know what to tell you, just giving you some feedback from a GFX noob that liked the old black theme :3

Transparent? :S

- Terrible use of inner glow on the title. Get rid of it.
- Don't use a stroke on the text.
- Make the text smaller and thinner, and make the subtitles bold, and (slightly) larger than the text.
- Make the subtitles a dark grey, and the text a lighter grey.

^ That would look a lot better. Might get you a 6/10.

In all honesty, it isn't better than 2/10.
It's not GFX. It's text.

Anyway, it's your first time. Don't sweat it.
Practice makes perfect.

When you make a new document make sure it's transparent and save it as a .png.

See, much better                 
You should still make the text (the stuff under the subtitles) smaller and thinner/not bold.
