What is up with your background, man? Did you take some wallpaper for it? If so, not cool, you can do better than that. The box itself isn't too bad though.
My suggestion for the back is to put a stroke around the text instead of a drop shadow. And for me the image of the background (behind the box) is distracting. It's looking good for the most part, though.
#17, Okay, I had to download GIMP and read a tutorial to find the answer for you.
Here's what you need to do:
1. Create Text, as you already have.
2. Make a copy of the text, make it the color you want the stroke to be. (You want this layer to be below the original text layer.)
3. Blur that layer with Filters>Blur>Blur
4. Copy blurred (stroke) layer.
5. Combine the two blurred layers.
Repeat 4 and 5 to personal taste.
It's a lot easier in Photoshop, but this is the best result I could find in GIMP.
BTW, I forgot to fav this, so I fixed that problem.

oh, and tleeart. how do i add a stroke? i can't seem to find it on gimp.

I think it looks good, the only hting I would do is try to make the text more noticeable on the back. It blends in with the background.
