Guest Posted August 23, 2008 Share Posted August 23, 2008 I know its big, im getting it resized. Anyway, im new at sig making. I made this with the GIMP. I heard smudging was the only way to go background wise, so i did a basic attempt. The border was made with selecing a region, and using lava, i also experimented with multiple layers and blurs. Rate it if you'd like, and constructive critism would be helpfull. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Licky Kat Posted August 23, 2008 Share Posted August 23, 2008 I heard smudging was the only way to go background wise, so i did a basic attempt. That is so untrue. But anyway, you need to learn how to blend the render into the background so it doesn't look like its just pasted on top. The border does not fit at all. While it looks kinda neat, it doesn't fit this piece. And the text needs work. If you want a place that has lots of texts you can look through and download, try www.dafont.com Call me Kat, or Kathy Corkat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kaosmerchant Posted August 24, 2008 Share Posted August 24, 2008 Not bad, especially for a first! I'd suggest changing the font though, or do something about it - it doesn't stand out enough. Maybe even something as simple as adding a border color to the text. Overall, nice job. -KaosmerchantSend me a PM if you'd like any style of sig done - I'd be glad to help you out.

baalboy5 Posted August 24, 2008 Share Posted August 24, 2008 I don't like the different lighting on the ears. :geek: Don't you know the first rule of MMO's? Anyone higher level than you has no life, and anyone lower than you is a noob. People in OT eat glass when they are bored. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not going to go into detail since I think you need to get to grips with the basics more first, but overall it's a pretty average first signature (I don't necessarily mean that in a bad way) that needs work on render blending, backgrounds, text and borders. pixel avvy by me deviantART Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
