As an ex-designer I think you might possibly have hit a bit of a classic pitfall in the green to grey gradient. Just setting green and grey as the endpoints gives you a rather washed out pale 50% green + 50% grey midpoint. Which is pretty much all you can do if you are supplying RGB images to print.
If you work more closely with the dyes (akin to a spot or CMYK print process), you would often set the gradient endpoints as 100% green and (100% green + 100% grey). This gives you a solid green background with a grey gradient over the top and a midpoint of 100% green + 50% grey. Gives a much more solid look especially in the middle of the gradient.
Intended as constructive criticism - please ignore if I'm talking out of turn though.

Finally got my new club kit finished. Good job by Santini after a nightmare start with Scody.
Worthy of stylish thread?
