Very nice. I could see something like this hanging on my wall. Good job.

I like the black setting and the three shots -- I'm thinking the copyright note/symbol should be smaller -- as is it look like it's part of the title as the size makes it an element in your composition. (editted for typos)

Yup the smaller one works better for me. Very nice shot. THe "costomer" should be very happy.

The smaller is better -- if I might suggest a further reduction and change in placement (it still seems part of the composition vs. a signature and note) -- perhaps off to one side and lower so someone could frame and mat the lovely image with this just above the mat (or on two separate lines - keep your name more as a part of the image but the copyright off the image so a mat could cover it without destroying the symetry of the piece.
I looked through DPC Prints and have seen a few examples where this is all the way in the margin - completely off the image.

I like the last one the best out of the three, but the actual photos seem a little small compared to the rest of the image, I still like it a lot.

I have to agree with AFViper - the third is the best of the lot. I think you'll have good luck with the poster/montage!

Looks great! I like the symmetry. As a drummer ( not THE Ginger Baker ) I love the fact that the drums are finally front and center ! :D

Nice job, and I like the fact that you went back and fixed the kerning in "The Band".

If I had to make any criticism, it would be that I would make the space around all the pictures match. As it is now the space between the pictures is wider than the space on top, right and left.
