Signature Showoff Thread

[SilverTears]

Very nice seek, I like V2 better, but you really need to get better text and stop using arial all the time :O
I also made the C4D tut for you, check in the tutorial section.

I'm a rather new sig maker and I havent progressed very much into how to use the brushes, but I figured i'd post what i can do on here just to see what you all think.

Id rate Evan Zero's a 9.5/10. Really good use of textures.
Nice pic.
And most importantly the text goes great with the actual theme.
(Not sure if this thread is still active but o well)

looks cool stealth, too much text imo, the brushing is way overused, make a border, play with layer effects, brushes brushes brushes :)



a new one by moi, ratings comments?

[Noobie_4_Lifey]

I made a new one. It has less text IMO. What you think is this better?

[bigdeath]

Definitely needs work on the text.

[Z3R0]

This is my newest one, the one I have now. I had to make it smaller to meet the upload requirments for this site.

I would acctually have to say that I really like the lettering effect in Big Death's, as well as the background. But the picture doesn't stand out as much. I think it could use some detail, maybe apply the burning tool to the red of the eyes so that they stick out more. Also, the only light source seems to be coming from the background, so it really doesn't need to have a shadow of the figure in the background. 6/10

[SilverTears]

Guys remember to rate the ones above yours.

Zero, pretty cool. I like the lighting effect, nice job. 7.5/10.

Heres a new one.

I just got this from someone and thought I would see what yall think.I am not chaneging mine, it is only posted this once.

[Z3R0]

I swear I have seen that somewhere.........looks really good with the fade in animations. Background is awsome but it looks like they didn't blur the edges of the chars to make them blend in. Not sure if you are supposed to for animations but imo, a 8.5/10

[L4E]

well just my opinion, and thank god ur not switching ur current to that, but that sig just.. sucks.

brushing is obviously simple point and click
renders are obviously just pasted on there with no modifications at all
no blending anywhere.. specially the text
just my opinion :)

and finally, this is to everyone here btw : BORDERS. sigs look like sh1t without borders. it's as simple as that, and this is NOT just my opinion

now my newest one


which im also gonna current =)

[Z3R0]

Can't read the text, no central focus point, render is the same one you have been using but is still undistinguishable. IMO: the colors don't blend. 6.5/10

[L4E]

could someone who knows anything about sig making re-rate.

now i dont mean to offend you, but...
first, how do the colours not blend? its a perfect blend everywhere, orange to yellow to orange to smooth entering of the renders colours. The only thing unblended is the text, and even there it is a bit
who ever said renders had to be 100% distinguishable? If i left it at 100% opacity it would look like urs.
the focus point is the text, the first thing u look at is the text and It is very easy to read it (btw its not like im writing a message to anyone, thats my signature) get a new monitor if u really cant.

[Z3R0]

First, the focus point is thered and purple on the right side. Second, the fond, color and size of the tenxt makes it unreadable. I know it says mad max only because it was in about the last two sigs you made. And why even use a render if you don't want people to be able to tell what it is. Just make random strokes with a brush. And I can really tell how it is a perfect blend how the dark purple blends into the dark red, which blends into blue, and then green. And btw, I didn't leave my render at 100%, it is more about at 86%, and I left it like that because I acctualy want people to see it.

[Seekndestroyer]

Ok, m8 first thing get rid of the white scanlines,, they are just plain annoying. Second. the text needs work smaller and with a lighter shade would help a lot then, add it into the sig.. make it flow somewhere within it. Third less blur.. blur can kill or make a sig and this one the blur didn't help. ehh.. the border is tacky just my personal opinion but if its not a black 1px border on the outsied it just dont work. That's all i feel like picking apart right now...

[SilverTears]

L4E, just to say something, your not the best signature maker here. You post your signature up for peoples opinion and thats what zero gave you. If your going to complain about forget about posting the sigs up. And remember, pamela and zerokool are basically new to sig making so dont just be like 'it sucks'. Give some helpful C&C.

zerokool is right about your signature to, the whole blue,red,purple,green thing isnt blending colors.

Can someone please rate this signature for the 50th time

[Z3R0]

I like how it focuses more on the figure than the background. I also like the applying of, grunge brush if I'm not mistaking. It makes it look he is disintegrating. I really like it. 9/10.

[SilverTears]

Thanks, I used some abstract brushing in that. The rest was layer adjustments, effects, and smudging.
I know im cheap

[Z3R0]

Pretty much the same with mine. I used about three brushes and then swithced up the design with free transform.

[SilverTears]

I hardly ever use brushes, and if I do it would either be in white or black to lighten or darken things up.

Heres a new peice I made that I love!

Stock:

[Seekndestroyer]

Ehh.. its not bad. The colors are good but there's no blending of jedi's. Think the text is a bit.. off. Its too big imo and people say "Yeah, put text right in the middle of all the action because text is the focus point." Text is only the focus if you make it the focus of the sig.. As for the collision its bright where the lightsabers collide tune it down a but because it looks like a white ball..
