[Warslut]

I think it's kind of plain, but you have it set up well. I'll give you an 8 out of 10

[Foog]

here's one that's not normal sized, but I like the background. That's russian, btw.

EDIT- got another one...

[A|fzZz]

EDIT- my latest and greatest, I think. A|fzZz, see what I mean about the two borders? I got the idea from anfern

The border like that will spoil the energy ball lol..

[Grave]

Mr. Cynic: The top one the text does not fit in with the background and background is pretty cool, btw i am russian .

ALFzZz: Render dosent really fit in with the background, too light for it, and the text is eh.

[Stifle_this]

Omg Ctrlaltdel Sigs, 1337 Haxxor, I Rate 99999999999999999.1/10

[A|fzZz]

grave yea...Its always the text's problem lol...No idea how to work on it..

And whats with stifle?

[BTC]

How do you make your own sigs?
And how do u add graphics to your name see how alfzzz is like black and white

[Foog]

BTC, we all use a program called Adobe Photoshop CS. Well, I use CS but some people may use an earlier version. It's actually photo editing software, but we all use it to create our sigs.
1) create a new document with a transparent background
2) fill it with clouds (Filter->Render->Clouds)
3) download a grunge-y brush set
4) after extracting it to C:\Program Files\Adobe\Photoshop CS\Presets\Brushes, load the brushes in photoshop
5) make several layers above the clouds layer and click around in each one with a different brush and a different color.
6) merge all of the layers when you're done
7) hit Ctrl-Shift-U to take all of the color out of it, Ctrl-Shift-B to brighten it all a touch, and Ctrl-U to make it a specific color.
8) From there you can add text, pictures, anything you like.

^^ I just wrote that to show how I made the background in your sig. That grungie kinda background.

And stifle flipped out because there's this online comic that we both read (just click on my sig and at that website go to the archives, and start reading them all, they're amazing) and he likes them.

Since there's no Pixel Showoff thread, check it:

[[/sarcasm]]

Matt, technically there's a graphics showoff thread... somewhere. But anyway, as to avoid the spam police, 8/10 because everyone loves inverted F's above the doorway. =D

Or vent systems, whatever.

Foog, You are forgetting color layers balances and birghtness and contrast layer.
Ok after you make ur background in Black and white (should look grey)
Go to Layer--> New layer--> Color balance layer and play with it untill you come out with something nice.
Then go to Layer --> New layer --> Brightness and contrast layer also play around.

very nice a|fzzz
very nice brushing and cool font n render... 9/10
plz rate my current one(i havent made it, Silent has, creds to him)

[Foog]

I don't really like it...not your render, bad background, and everything else is pretty bad.
2/10

[SilentWarrior]

Yeah srry spent some time on the render but the background was lacking i allready know that. I made it with 2 borders though. He chose that one. Didn't have time to get good text either. also was hard to brush that background and it still look allright. I don't get much time to work on sigs srry! I can make another with diffrent background later if you want neon. Iwas hopeing for like a 3-4 for it but I guess I can take a 2. lol.

[UberGrossMann]

bunch of random sigs i've made...i like the 3rd one the best...Rate please.

[Foog]

neither. no sig for you lycshiftz. the renders are too blended. and i don't like the height..just my preference.
FATE-
1) the background is too busy..cool render but it's obstructed by the background. 6/10 for the idea.
2) much better background, and nice color...the render is just the wee-est bit too blended. other than that, nice work. 8/10
3) i like the render, but the background is too plain. nice blending work. 7/10
4) my favorite, since the background and abstract work is really cool. the border is cool, too. 9/10.

nice work buddy!

PS Matt, the pixel thingie is really cool! what gave you the idea and how'd you make it? do you want a rating?

[pyrocrow]

fate, i really liked the one of the anime chick. its displayed pretty sweet between the stars and the background. from top to bottom ur scores are: 7/10; 8/10; 9/10; 8/10

lycshiftz, the anime characters look like they came from a coloring book. i don't like them. sorry. the background does look good however thats why im giving them both 7/10.

what do you guys think of mine? its not mine, but i want to know
