How about that we celebrate it cause we lasted another year? It's like, "Hooray! You're still alive!". Many people don't want their loved ones to pass away so quickly, so it should be natural to celebrate that their loved one is still alive. This is just my take on it, though.

I apologize in advance if anyone found what i said offensive. It was not intended to be. I do realise there are many peaceful Muslims out there.

If you take care of someone, then you're probably living for someone else. If you truly are in it for yourself, you would not even dare help a rape victim who is being raped right in front of your eyes. When you help another person, you just crossed the line from living for yourself, to living for more than just yourself. There's no possible way to not be in any religion. Afterall, didn't you say several posts back that you are either an atheist or an agnostic? Eventhough you did not specify which one, i'ma guess you're an atheist, only because of how similar you act like them. Eventhough you say you don't attack, you could very well be attacking during your defense--even if it doesn't seem that way to you. Correction: One is not dead when they go to Heaven, they are alive. You can't judge the dead. Though, you're probably thinking that the body is the person. However, the body is just a detachable thing. The spirit is the person.

Here's my suggestion: eat (more) foods that contain B* vitamins. Food has its ways of affecting certain moods. I hear the B vitamins are good when dealing with anger, stress, etc. Just don't eat an excessive amount. Too much nutrients can be dangerous. I'd recommend at least 35% daily value (DV). Many cereals contain some B vitamins. Though, i'd suggest all-natural cereals.

I wish wizard/mage renders were easier to find--that is, good ones. Anyways, here's the sig you requested. If you need anything changed, tell me.

However, they can't go out of bounds of their power. They have to "preserve, protect and defend" the U.S. constitution--which is written; which one might say, it's a book. The law may limit their opinions and actions.

I heard templates were gonna be posted soon. I was just waiting for them. They should change my vote upon view. He has improved in the sig area.

That would be from me. I am amazed you memorized it so perfectly. [hr=noshade] Anyways, i'm sure many things can be said about theists also. This part caught my attention the most. I've heard so many things about Muslims that it just seems odd that atheists are thought to be lower than them. The U.S. seems to be always contradicting the First Amendment. My guess is, they didn't think far enough into "free speech" before they brought it into being. Maybe they meant you don't have to pay to talk? Hmm, imagine if we had to pay to talk.[/hr]

Definately, this one should replace the one in your current signature block. I would just suggest one little thing: Add a thin stroke, a very light one, so it can blend well, and so the bottom of the "B" and "Z" could be more visible.

That reminds me of PHP-nuke. But i have no idea. If you were to have scrolled all the way down, you may have noticed something like, "Powered By ____________". That would have helped answer your question.

What i got from this aritcle, is that Satanism is something that you are in it for yourself. To be blunt, it's a selfishness thing. In some cases, some people that worship satan are satanists, and are under the religion satanism. But isilioth, like mentioned in the article, claim it is not about worshipping satan. Though, a less deceiving word could have been chosen instead of "satanism" for isilioth's religion.

Thanks. However, i can't take all credit for it. Since i asked if i could use it, from Klass.

If the right side of the sig was taken off by about, maybe, 60 pixels, it would look better, IMO. I don't think it needs a render, the background is attractive enough. Maybe a different choice in fonts. Not sure what kind of font to suggest, though. Maybe one that resembles grunge and tech. Or maybe get a "default" font, and put a layer mask on it, and brush over the mask. I am giving this a 6.9/10.

[1]No, not overlapping, but i guess you can say, standing on top. Like so: O&J Productions [2]Just for the purpose of experimentation. I'd duplicate the layer just incase of quality-loss.[3]Yes, they look fine, for your firsts. I still say the second one is the better one.

I agree with Dawiss: could use more contrast. Though, that grid pattern covers way too much. I wouldn't have it cover so much the middle. Can be easily fixed with an omni gradient over the layer mask.

Exactly what i was going to say. But i have more of course. Maybe if the logo wasn't slanted (a "Y" shape), and you placed "O&J" on top of "Productions" and centered everything, with the logo behind it, it might look nice. As for the first one, i'm not sure if the Satin effect is helping. But i would definately increase the size of the logo so "O&J" can fit and not touch the edges. And add a stroke to the text.

I needed to get the hang of the GIMP, again, since i am planning on making a sig tutorial for it. I made this sig to refresh my memory about the GIMP. Rate and comment. Please try and avoid commenting on the text. The GIMP does not offer many features that PhotoShop does for text. It is more manual when it comes to text. Anyways, here's the sig.

Notice how the tattoo is in, like, a rectangular shape? If you could manage to make it loop side-to-side, and create a bar with it across the sig, that might look nice. Make it some kind of pattern, if you will.

That's quite good for the GIMP. Even more so, if that's your first completed sig. I can't really give much advice, since i can't remember much about the GIMP. I've only really used the GIMP once.

I'd say the top and bottom parts of the background could stand out just a bit more. And so can the border. Besides that, nice. Like how the text goes well with the background. Oh, it would be awesome if you could somehow cutout the tattoo and make it as a bar above and below the text, that stretches from left to right.I'm rating this sig 8/10.
