too*, mike, not to.sorry, but that bugs me. :(I agree with what mike said. I do think you have a nice background going on the left side, but maybe use a color other than that yellow...maybe an orange, red, or white to match ryu.
-
I did this method before on BuffaloHELP's sig...it's a nice touch, especially to a tech/space sig. Never did the graphic pen though...interesting.
-
Not bad on these mike. I'd say blend in the lines on the top one (they're pretty much the only white in the sig) and maybe move them over on the bottom one so they're not covering the D.I happen to like the second one a lot more...it's more colorful and looks well done.Like I said, not bad. But is this still considered your 2nd season? If so, step it up a bit. I know you can pull off some wicked sigs, mikey.
-
There's quite a few of them in the gfxtrap tutorial section...just look around.It looks really nice... I dont know anything about this; can sombody put a simple tutorial or activity to design such graphics. Where can we get such images to start of with.
-
Render blending and font choice are the things I'd say need some improvement. Might want a different texture for the Q logo too. Not bad Avalon.
-
Vert sigs are all over the place now...Anyway, nice job. Some of the better sigs I've seen lately.
-
The ends are always more important than the means.
-
Put it this way. Defaults, in theory, should be what you could produce using nothing but a windows install and photoshop. No outside programs, downloaded material, so forth.1. fonts never get counted towards it being default, 2. i made the c4d render and considering its a render... doesnt make it not a default sig.
-
Notice from Johnny:Approved. Nice outcome. -
The c4d render is custom made. and that font is custom made.yeah I know but considering I didn't use anything custom made it is defaults
Depends on your definition of custom made.
-
Pfft, you guys might have started with Paint Shop Pro, I, on the other hand, started with Macromedia Fireworks. Now that is a terrible graphics program (for sigging, that is). :(Anyway, I'd go with everything Zythrix said, plus what mayank said, plus what Mike said.If you happen to need any tutorials, I have some pretty well done ones...just pm me and I can send some to you.
-
Not bad for a first (good) one. I actually like the first one better. I'd say it could use a better background (some nice brushing would work wonders), some render blending (after you've added the brushing), some contrast (use a brightness/contrast layer), and a bit more color (color balance layer). As for the text, maybe a simplistic font (times new roman or arial black?) for the name and the same font or a pixel font might go well for the subtext. Might also want to throw a border on it.It sounds like a lot is wrong, but it's really not bad. Nice job.
-
Just a reminder to you two that, as unbelievable as it may sound to you, even Saint Michael was a beginner once. Practice, practice, practice, and it'll come with more practice. Did I mention that you might have to practice once in a while?
True dat.That is funny. He still is a beginner. Jk.
lol, poor mikey.Anyways like they said, the people that are good here like Johnny and the rest have had alot of practice using the programs and what not.
Aww, shucks. Thanks.
So to reiterate, just keep on doing sigs and learning new techniques. A good place to start is tutorials, which you can find on different websites, or you can get some from me (I've bought rights to a handful of nice ones.) and I can give them to you free. They're kind of advanced, but might still be helpful. Just let me know if you want any, and I can pm them to you.
It took me 3 or 4 months to get half-decent with graphics design... It's been a looong time now, I'm still not as good as I want to be, but I'd say I know insane amounts more than when I first started.
-
Looks a bit cluttered and chaotic.
Here's the one I did before:
Not my best, but you get the point.
-
Not bad on this one. I would've personally thrown a drop shadow or something on the render to make it stick out a bit, but otherwise nice.Just stop using that font so freaking much, k? :(BTW -- I saw that 2005 Xisto awards thing and laughed.
-
What they both said. Not liking this bunch much mikey.
-
There's a difference between defaults and no brushes, you know.um... no I haven't used brushes at all
Anyway, they look okay, but I could probably reproduce the first one, and I don't really like the c4d (I assume it's a c4d render) in the second one.
-
Of course. I wouldn't expect anything less.They actually come from within the coffin too, I didn't just make them appear on screen. You can watch it frame by frame also to see that they do come from inside the coffin.
-
They come out of the coffin in the center, you dork.not bad the only slight alteration you should make is have the bats come from the left side instead of appearing right in the middle.
Lovely animation as usual, AcidGlow.
-
i really like them. They really go well toether with the backround. They all have really good backrounds and renders. I have got to say that all of them look really proffesional. Keep up the good work man!
Thanks a lot.
Haha, thanks CF.Lovin' this batch Johnny. The render on the second is kinda funny
. The third is just the foshizzle
-
I honestly don't see how that looks good...I mean, did you want it to look good, or were you just photomanipping for no reason? O.o[kinda lost track of what I was saying...I worded that oddly...oh well.]
-
Thomas -- Thanks.Hulunes -- Thanks. What about his finger? The square is because I'm kind of doing my second edition sigs now.Reaver -- 1. Yeah, it was just an example for the render...not the greatest pose, I guess. 2. I was thinking that...maybe I should have made the hearts more red? 3. Thanks. :(Mike -- That's what I said. Go spidey. And the last one isn't really a photomanip...you'll see when you get the PSD. And the name isn't very visible here, but on a dark background like GR, it sticks out a lot more.Thanks for the comments all.
-
Thanks for the input, but one thing.IMO, blue works everywhere.

Thanks for the comment.

I was wondering who that guy was...I've seen him on other sigs too. He was a commie?
