apinagez Posted May 18, 2005 Share Posted May 18, 2005 Hi everyone, i just began to use Photoshop and made some sigs :D Could you rate them for me? :P Bear in mind that i'm a begginer sig maker while rating :wink: Any hints to make them better in the future? :) ^The most disturbing signature on Tip.it^Last.fm|HELLY KAYLA!|Oh the mehagurtz!|#Siencemakers"they care less about their spelling mistakes then I." - Lionheart"apinagez... let me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_k0m0d0_ Posted May 18, 2005 Share Posted May 18, 2005 The second one is my favorite!!! Awsome I suggest you add a pixel border in the last one :wink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ice_ring Posted May 18, 2005 Share Posted May 18, 2005 they are good for firsts...my firsts were a lot worse :?. best thing to do right now is go to some of the following places: http://www.good-tutorials.com http://www.tutorialized.com ratings for the sigs: none of them are really any good which can't be expected when first opening up photoshop, hell I'm still a noob after 6 months of it. These sigs aren't really part of a style so they can't really be improved on. uhh work on your text, add a 1 pixel black stroke to your text does wonders, just type your phrase/word and then simplify the layer then go select>all>stroke>1 pixel inside or outside depending on which looks better. hope I helped :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ic3dragon Posted May 18, 2005 Share Posted May 18, 2005 I like the first one you should put a border on them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan Posted May 18, 2005 Share Posted May 18, 2005 ice_ring nailed most of it, but you also need to research a little about complementary colors. The sigs are very appealing to the eyes because the colors don't go together. Also, it looks like you used the same effect in #2,3 an d something similar in 4. The effect doesn't help much so I woudln't suggest using it again. Just keep trying till you get what you want, don't settle for anything less.

axeraider70 Posted May 18, 2005 Share Posted May 18, 2005 doing one style and nothing else in abstract kinda gnaws away at your creativity and soon you cant do anything else... try to expand your horizons. axeraider70.deviantART.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryan Posted May 22, 2005 Share Posted May 22, 2005 A couple things: The term render is not used when talking about a drawing or 2d object. A render is the finished product of 3d work. I have seen this used in this thread and your other one about what you are selling. And yes, you should be very excited about making 42k for these sigs. I don't to be rude, but you are selling people sigs with a filter background and an image you didn't make. I know you're a beginner and that's why I think you should stop trying to make money on your first or second day and actually learn what you are doing. Right now, the only reason you are making any money is because you are taking images made by other people and slapping them into your sigs, which is illegal. They aren't stock photos and you don't have the consent of the author. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apinagez Posted May 22, 2005 Author Share Posted May 22, 2005 Wow Ryan you are such a nice person :roll: 84k is irrelevant money for me, you think i'm making money with my sigs? I make them for fun... Also, i DO know the rules, these are not copyrighted photos. You made me give up. You must be happy now. ^The most disturbing signature on Tip.it^Last.fm|HELLY KAYLA!|Oh the mehagurtz!|#Siencemakers"they care less about their spelling mistakes then I." - Lionheart"apinagez... let me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
