AAAARGGH The Commies got me at last !!!! :lol: :lol: :lol: Based on : No commie was injured durning the making of this joke...

7/10 + Simple design + Many stats about you - Artisticaly poor - 2 much text spoils the bg - Font is a bit boring and abused on many sigs

5/10 The background doesn't fit the theme of a miner/crafter/smither at all and it's pretty boring and the color is a bit dead... The Rs pics look not well blended in the bg...and maybe they'r bad pics for themselves (maybe take 2 different ones with a slight rotation from the full frontal view you used here). I don't like the font...it floods out of the "text box", but not as frequently as a design choice could suggest.

the blade is way sharper than the body...maybe you have to fix one of the 2 (i'd say blade,making it rune color maybe). A bit 2 dark then...but wheeee you'r the only posting :) --->>> 100k for you <<<---

5/10 .... some gradient work and a bad text... sorry :cry:

well first of all...it's a recycled sig... then it's just a plastic wrap on some image.... plus 100k might be a bit expansive :D PS: U FORGOT THE LAST " ] " IN YOUR SIG...

If i'm not wrong u started both from a tutorial and then messed around with them... nothing impressive for the graphical aspect (maybe it's the image compression but they don't look much detailed or something...), but a nice idea to be improved i think.... :D

a cabbage

Bad camera choice in my opinion... The other problems are well under every1 eyes as the fact it's your first try so it's pretty pointless to criticise you on the graphical aspect...

Mmmm...pretty nice :) I personaly love "stressed reality" colors... Still the way the water is designed is kinda odd...2 bumpy and "solid" ... lower the roughness of your water and you'll get a nicer result.

Nad i'm personaly not mad at that guy or have some kind of anger towards him, just to be clear. I'm very cold blooded in many aspects of my mood, plus i'm not from spoken english countries so the mix might look a bit harder than it actualy is. Other than that...back on your post...i personaly had this kind of style in my mind and i made it. full stop. I'm not a guy that gets that much influenced from what other ppl does or doesn't. I try to respect other ppl work, of course, finding new ways, cause it would be 2 easy to take Azvy style, something he might have worked hard on...replicate it and implement it in the time i saved copying....that's unfair. We'r talking about smilies...Something pretty easy to do...Your style for example is very very easy(not that this is to be blamed, it's simply a style)...and has been replicated on a sig or two already (or you got inspired from those...or somewhere else you both copied from...dunno and personaly don't care). I could have used something like that, saving some time 2...but the result would have been similar to yours and that's not what i aim to. PS: about the Criticism...remember you and Witty-Fool in the latest threads ? :P

So, there you have it. :wink: And btw, I praised the latter image and gave some critic considering the style. For that you throw me with a flamatory comment boldly stating how superior you are to me and mock my intellect by talking like to a five-year-old. geez. I guess you can't handle some feedback. :? PS I changed my mind...they are both ugly. :D Where does the quote come from ? Who said those are smilies ? they are wallpaper...the smily version has no borders. And of course...are we surfing the same thread ? I didn't flame you. But it's in my right to answer to the critics expressing my own point of you. If you can't stand that...well have a walk on Disney's forums... If i post here is to have some criticism or to show something easy and funny i made, caring nothing about the ratings or such things simply cause they were some "spare time fillers" i wanted to share with you, hoping some1 might like. Having constructive criticism is ok. Having some feedback as yours (the style statement) requires an answer. Or do u expect you'r the only one that has the right to talk ? Moreover i wasn't hard in my asnwer nor i pointed at you comparing myself to you...maybe your ego wrote a big party of the story then.... And about your last message...i'm not sure who's the 5-years old guy here... :roll: and untill you show me something that deserve some rispect or show me you try hard on something artistic i'll never say i'm better than you or such bs...still i won't consider your non costructive criticism more than i consider an ant walking in my garden. Come back with some interesting comment and then we'r ok.... For example Nadril is a guy i realy respect over here, i don't say i love all his works or he has to love all mine, still i have no problems trying to criticise his work the good way in order to help him getting better (He does a lot of fixing) and all feedback from him is welcome cause he never says bs and focus on artistic stuff (he also has some pure spam sessions sometimes lol...whatever).

Erm....how's the SIN symbolized there ? :?:

I wonder if you know what you'r talking about...still...My style is whatever i want it to be since as u said it's mine (as to say son of a premade choice not of limits of any kind ). And it's not just that...but maybe u can't see that...Azva stuff is simply smoother and works in the small...that helps a lot. Where i place shadow he puts a smoothed borded/trace....so?...I personaly love that style, not that i can't make the same, but again i didn't want to follow the same style of some1 else, call it respect for other ppl...call it whatever you want. Hope this stays clearly in your mind in the future. I'm personaly against all the cloning stuff u see here, i mean...getting inspired from something is nice, copying the style is bad. And also i prefer ppl that experiment new ways rather than ppl doing the same things over and over and over maybe not working on quiality but quantity....missing to reach the goal of almost perfection that could make them "skip to next page".... And tell me a rule that states a border can't interact with the image....I'm not blind you know ?

ok i posted the image here.... Added a new one 2 :)

Well...mainly you made this lanscape...set an animation and waited for the (long) render process to do the rest of the thing... 2 Bad i personaly don't like the landscape and athmosphere...they don't fit an animation that much (overall boring output, almost all time in the dark) and the camera routing could have been more "impressive" to give some kind of thrill or surprise. Overall it's a respectable work for the effort and the lack of such things around...still artistically i personaly don't like it that much. (Just wondering what's the original quality of the movie? like that?If so have you ever considered asking on devart to those guys who help with big and long renders?)

Maybe that's the style... :roll: Didn't want to do something the same style as other ppl here (as to say : 2d as nad or totaly smoothed as Azvy) And don't want to be rated starting from a comparison :) As i said i looked for a Jappo style... Check Jap magazines and you'll find what i mean :P

The new trend in these pages about emoticon based works made me think about turning some old Display pictures i made into some bigger works. Here's one i like... (I gave it a japan-like style just to stay avay from others seen here.... and the new onw...WHEEEEEEEEEEE as i was asked to do due to devart probs :)

Totaly different choices but...mmm way better than before :) I think you could still fix something in the foreground image...but maybe your hands are tied by the "sharp" look it has...dunno...i'd try merging this level with a copied, slighly blurred (1-1.6 px) one... Good work however mate :)

i might just Redo the bottom part. Shouldnt be that hard, just gotta gather the stock photo again :) Yeah i think the same...might be faster and give better result :) I think the concept is interesting but that part spoils all the beauty in the image :) [Didn't mean to be hard btw...just that i know what you can do, and you can do way better than that :wink:]

Mmm the space part of the scene is very nice... only things i'd fix are : -add some nebulas cause the starfield is a bit flat -get rid of the small planet on the left...looks like a flat sticker on the image that way. The rest tends to be realy (and this time i mean REALY) bad according to me... There's so many problems i can hardly imagine u made that :shock: so let's start : -The bottom shore of the foreground land is way 2 sharp and saturated... -The Top part of the same land is blurry -Behind the trees there's a blurred thing i realy can't understand...and that i'd get rid off in a second.... Overall i can't give more than 6...

Not to be hard on you 2 but if you read the topic it says : VOTING UP NOW...so don't flame if i simply voted without reading all that spam you ppl set up among these thread (yeah it's mainly spam...or well out of topic...). Plus i don't like watching how the voting is going before i post mine, so i have totaly clear mind. Moreover i vote according to artistic aspects only while many ppl here voted according to the their relationship towards the artist...(some 2pac supporters i'd say). Personaly the 2 pics weren't even to compare...one was just that higher than the other...but didn't win... Don't bs me again with that kind of stuff...i don't like "dirty tricks" and i don't sleep with Nadril :roll:

erm...3rd one ? :roll: well if u realy have to choose i'd say second one...but i personaly won't use any of those as sig...it's a bit annoying.

now it looks flat and not defined...try duplicating the layer and playing with the blending settings or duplicate, place a 1-2 px blur and play again (this could give a nice angel aura effect)

I vote for Nadril's one for this reason : I don't particulary love any of those...still Nadril's only "big mistake" is in the water reflectivity.... 2Pac made 2 "big mistakes" that is....the foam ( ? ) of the water that looks like a solid plastic stuff and the world dimensions....as u know in terragen u can set the world dimension and the curved horizon effect...well in this case he must have messed with those settings cause it looks like the whole image is taken on a 1Km radius asteroid.... (on the left of the mountain u see nothing at all while you should see some terrain/water in a realistic view...) So summarizing...they both are not that much realistic...still Nad's one is more and...i have to say that the 2pac's one is pretty poor of feelings (well that's just subjective stuff so...whatever) >> I VOTE NAD <<
