well i'd say 300x100 minimum, i'd say anything over 450x180 or so is too big.. max i go is 400x160 or 170.. i forgot.
there is a new size style goin around, thats more squared looking, somewhere like 250x200 or 300x250.. i don't really know

what i focus on when making a tag (in order)
1. stock positioning- can make or break a tag sometimes
2. effects - duh?
3. flow - kinda goes with effects, i usually do a whole bunch of effects, then refine them to make the tag flow well/look good
4. lighting - if needed, i just usually use the lighting from c4d's, i don't do realistic/nature lighting
5. coloring - very important, photo filters, gradient maps, and the occasional color balances. try to make the colors look pleasing too the eye, and have them all flow together well.
6. text - optional :P

anyways thats how i do.
