Frozen 0 Report post Posted August 15, 2005 I think it's good for your second sig bro. when you make your text, put it under the color balance layer, and give some effects on it, that way, it matches your background and your background color.Keep working man, you'll be doing better in no time!

Ralphie 0 Report post Posted August 15, 2005 this is better than your first one you did. i think the main thing you need to do with this one is experiment with different text effects. if you like the font then just go and try a bunch of different styles and see what you like.

AMWGeek 0 Report post Posted August 15, 2005 I really like it, I just don't like how you did the text. Next time, try playing around with different effects for the text and fonts. Still, good sig. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You were a moderator there weren't you. You helped me out on getting hosting. Oh well. Great to see you. Have a great day! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yipster 0 Report post Posted August 18, 2005 I agree with everyone else, the text needs to be tweaked a bit.(font and color) And that dotted line, eerrr, just doesn't work for me. You know what would be cool, adding some grass on the bottom, it would keep with the feel. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Johnny 1 Report post Posted August 20, 2005 well my suggestion to all will be that when ever you rate any sig then please rate it as well 176324[/snapback] The real input should be coming through words...ratings are just numbers, and don't actually make you a better designer. That's why I've been leaving all my number ratings out lately. My suggestions on it would be to drastically fix up the text (Better placement, size, effects, colors, blending...), and some minor touchups on the bg and render blending.

Damann 0 Report post Posted August 20, 2005 Wow....heres a site that could help you with your font disabilities. http://www.dafont.com/de/ After you get a font from there go read every tutorial at http://www.good-tutorials.com/ and get better brushes from http://www.deviantart.com/ or make them yourself. Its not the best sig...the font kills it. But its pretty good for your second sig. 8/10 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Johnny 1 Report post Posted August 20, 2005 Wow....heres a site that could help you with your font disabilities. http://www.dafont.com/de/ [1] After you get a font from there [2] go read every tutorial at http://www.good-tutorials.com/ 176599[/snapback] [1] Some fonts. Not just one. [2] That would take forever. And most of that "forever" would be just wasting time. A lot of the tutorials are bad. Or repeats. Or broken links. But there's a few nice little goodies in there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
