But you're using it, and I doubt a mod/admin would remove your siggy... (Say "It couldn't be used by anyone but me" next time... ;) )

I COULD DO A BETTER JOB OF THAT. See? I am the MASTER of cutting something out of a siggy and slapping a name on it! ^_^

I use a normal Logitech optical mouse... Accuracy has nothing to do with it, just zoom in and you have all the accuracy you need... As for drawing it on paper first, sometimes I do, sometimes I don't.

It can't? You're using it... Be more specific next time. ;)

I don't think Macs rule... Macintosh stands for - Most Applications Crash, If Not, The Operating System Hangs. (I got that off Wikipedia: backronyms ^_^) I think Macs have EasyColor Draw or something along those lines, which is similar enough to Paint (I've used it at school).

I've seen user editions of Photoshop in stores for $300-$400USD... X_x No, I won't tell anyone where I got my copy of PS6... Let's just say someone bought it legally... just not neccesarily me... Emphasis on "neccesarily".

lol axeraider, I noticed both you and ice_ring have gotten significantly better recently... gj all. I suppose I'm okay at pixel art, although I tend not to do either, since, IMHO, there are enough people out there, and enough people who give sigs away for free... That's why my pins are unique. Not pixel art, not Photoshop stuff... ^_^ Although I make all my pins in MS Paint...

They're always free. As long as I have time to do 'em. And if I don't have time to do 'em, I try to find time anyway. But people who pay me usually find theirs done much faster... ^_^ And I usually do avatars, not siggys, mainly because avatars are much easier.

I give Jeppoz's 10/10 without even looking at it. ^_^ ----- I give Shaw's 9/10 The guy's eyepatch needs a little work... The dragon's teeth could stand to be more triangular... right side looks a bit empty... add some trees behind the dragon? The fairy-type-thingy doesn't seem to fit in too well, and all three seem to be standing there doing nothing... a bit wierd, IMHO...

I give axe's a 8.5/10. Suggestions: The arrow looks crooked, you might want to fix that. The arrow's glow should also fade, instead of being cut off. It's an aura, not a bubble. ^_^ The yellow border on the moon looks a bit out of place, you might want to remove that. The dragon could look a bit more shading... and would look better if its eyes were X's. The text should be pixelly as well... The picture also looks a bit empty... add a tree or two, that might fix it... No, I don't think the picture is bad... I don't give detailed reviews unless I think you have potential... ^_^ btw, I like your style of drawing people... keep it up. ---- I give mummi's an 8/10 The colors are too... pastel... You might also want to add black borders to everything, it makes the picture look more clear. It also looks a bit empty... making everything bigger or making the dimesions smaller would help. The flag looks a bit one-dimensional, would look better if it were waving...

O_o So THAT'S why... Yes, it seems to die off a few times during the installation... just wait a while and it'll start up in a while. And if you see a window labelled "Setup" in the taskbar, click it. ^_^

Hm... it's nice, but a bit too serene for a pixel sig... "serene" is for Photoshop! ^_^ I give it an 8.5/10 And I tell you, don't give it to anyone that already has a really cool sig... They have enough already. ^_^ You already have a really cool animated siggy, you don't need another... :P

Ehh, not really what I'd call "Demonic"... the eyes should be more triangular... but that's just me. 7/10. And remember, many of the world's best sigs were made by brushing accidents. ^_^

It's called Terragen. (This is generic information usable for all programs, since I've never downloaded Terragen) After you download it, you go to the place where you saved it. If it's a zip, you unzip it, find the setup[Caution: ExecutableFile] or install[Caution: ExecutableFile], and run that. If it's an exe, just run it (double-click it). After that, it should appear in Start Menu, Desktop, or Quick Lauch bar. If you purposely made it so it doesn't, you should find the corresponding folder, then exe in Program Files.

Avatars? 30-50K?! Indemn... Especially since your sigs are free...

This is just a rough sketch... only things I've really finalized are the p-hat and the staff...

Ah, I love the filters here... makes for such humorous discussions.... ^_^

100K is a LOT! I only had 2K before people started paying me for the pins!

Ehh... it's okay... ;)

You mean the pins? See my siggy. ^_^ I make the pins... click "Get your free siggypins! CLICK HERE!"

I, personally, think that my avatar is pretty good...

I'm going to enter... but this could take a while...

And, sigs made with MS Paint can sometimes be better than Photoshop sigs. Have you seen the RS images? Their pictures of items? i.e. That kind of detail cannot be done with what we call "Photoshop sigs". Those pictures are made pixel-by-pixel. Does that make them worse than any Photoshop pictures? I don't think so. Sure, Photoshop can be easier to use than MS Paint. Sure, someone who's good with MS Paint can be better with Photoshop. But in the end, pictures that are painstakingly drawn pixel-by-pixel are better than any photoshop render. btw, when I say Photoshop sigs, I do NOT mean pixel sigs drawn in photoshop.

Hm... I'm guessing you don't need me to make you a pin that fits the avatar, then... btw, gj.

Yes. That's why the "Sample" text on mine are usually watermark-style, semitransparent text that covers the whole image.
