nnot bad not bad since i know your work and you have battled against me you got my vote.

I say yes, but we really need for you to start working on your text effects and pixel fonts. Good job so far, but much room for improvement

I absolutely -suck- with text :DAnd what's wrong with .png's? o_O They have flawless compression...unlike .jpg's and .gif's. IMO, PNG is the best format there is..though they tend to be a bit larger in size.

Might wanna use thumbnails for those renders.Anyway, Phyre, you're better than half the other guys I gave a yes to, so yes to you too.

Phyre's got my vote. His sigs are very good judging from what I see in his battles. If I've voted for you in a battle, then you pretty much have my vote.I'll be back to vote tomorrow. Gotta get some sleep.

Portable Network Graphics are fine, but sometimes it's best to go with Joint Photographic Experts Group file formats. PNG 24bit is better for like renders that you want to use in photo manipulation programs, since it stores more information than PNG 8bit, like alpha channels. Like for the punisher sig, that could have been JPEG. Just saying, if it doesnt require transparency, then dont go with PNG. PNG supports: Truecolor, greyscale, and palette-based. JPEG supports: Truecolor, and greyscale.

LOL, you know me xD. Or do you? O_o.

[snlildude87 0]

Truefusion, would it hurt to use JPEG for the second instead of typing out each word in the acronym? Showoff. :DBrooks, I'll be back to vote on other applications tomorrow. Geez. Common sense here.
