I was actually asking for a critique, but I can understand how it can look like "idle chit chat".

ZK thats an awesome sig man
love how the fire from his hands look as though they were making light in the surrounding.

and the brushing or whatever it is gives the background some foresty strange haunted place look. really nice.

the border is 2px tho!!!

bad!
9/10

also for the text, try duplicating the layer and blurring the text on one of the layers alot. sometimes it gives a cool effect.

wow zero thats actually really good i didnt like your style of some of your other sigs buts thats easily the best one ive seen you make.
8.5/10

Here are some slightly larger sigs/banners I did on request for a member of another site:

**SilverTears** · 01-20-2007, 05:17 AM

Nice but maybe a little smaller...? Keep it up.

I think it is cool looking ^^ I like the intensety of the facial expression...maybe a border would make a difference though.

**Bounda** · 01-22-2007, 02:31 AM

im trying to think of a way to add text that wont screw it up...
anyways, please rate

/edit kazama he looks pretty mad at someone and i also like the way you did your text :) anyways i think its pretty good

**Nex** · 01-22-2007, 09:42 AM

i made my first two sigs i haven't put text in them because i have no good fonts and don't know where to get them, i followed one of frog man's tuts (its different because i don't know where to get the brushes he said to use) and the other one is off a link at good tutorials, its not finished because i don't know how to put scan lines into it.
and here they are i no they are bad but my first try

**SilverTears** · 01-22-2007, 09:57 AM

Those 2 are excellent for your first signatures. For brushes, www.deviantart.com and for fonts, Download fonts | dafont.com

**Nex** · 01-22-2007, 10:39 AM

thanks divine i figured out how to in scan lines and found a nice text to put on here is finished product, although could use a little bit more work.

you can give it a rating if you like and tell me if im doing things right.

and btw before you posted where to get brushes and fonts those are the teo exact same places i used to get them thanks divine

**Bounda** · 01-22-2007, 11:20 AM

its excellent for one of your first sigs 7/10

i didnt get a rate

**Nex** · 01-22-2007, 11:51 AM

thanks i like the way the render blends into the back ground and how it looks like water is falling onto him
8/10 form me grats

**Bounda** · 01-22-2007, 01:24 PM

newest, i create one each day btw

**Nex** · 01-22-2007, 05:25 PM

think im getting a little better with render sigs and brushes, im addicted to making sigs now

soo fun to make

**Z3R0** · 01-22-2007, 10:47 PM

Bounda, looks good, text is in a nice spot, but behind the brush layer? Makes it harder to ntice and read that way. It looks like it has a start to a nice flow from the bottom left corner to the top right corner, but with the amount of noise in the middle grey area, it stops the eye on that spot. When I look at it, my eyes go first to the render, then the grey area. You want to create it to where the eyee will "flow" from one side to the other, or in a pattern. Looks pretty good though. 6.5/10.

Nexus, the first one is a bit, bland, and gives off a sullen look with the dull colors. The render sticks out to much, the background is to busy, and the text doesn't really fit. Also, it doesn't have a border. IMO: 4.5/10

Second one looks really good, the render is a good starting focus point, and the leaves help guide the eye around the image in a circular motion, which has a good effect. Font makes the text stick out a bit, maybe try a differant, solid font. Brushing looks good, but again, colors are to dull. For this one, I would say the color scheme makes it work though. Also, no border. A 1 px border makes the image constrained and makes the eye stop, rather then running off the image. Constrain the image, constrain the eye. IMO: 7/10.

Just keep practicing and check out the tuts here. Also, always look for new brushes and fonts. Here is one I did for a competition on another site:

thanks ZK for the helpful reply i put boarders on those but i am going to keep them as is and improve on making new sigs. i have tried making a new one using another tut which was hard to understand but i got through it all right with ok looking outcomes.
here is new one using one of foog's tuts:

another one i made before this:
