| whoah, 10 mins?! Does that include thinking about how you want the signature to look or do you sorta just wing it? Messing around with C4D as well as I learned how to apply image to a layer so messed around with that as well lol.  |

Messing around with C4D as well as I learned how to apply image to a layer so messed around with that as well lol. It includes thinking about how I want the signature to look included. I never wing it. .w. Or well, wait. I go by.. doing what feels right the most, even if it's incorrect and then, if it doesn't fit I think about it. It doesn't take much. D: Isa__ said: Nymil said: Eh? She answering your question, whether it is any better, with yes. lol And holy cow. 10 minutes. I have to admit, the result is better than anything I could do in 10 minutes, but you still see that it was rushed. I can't leave out the buts, can I..? orz I was confused as to what "yo" meant, I thought it was a greeting mfw stupid me But yeah, it's a literal 10 minute job. Most of the time was spent on finding that one fractal I like since there are 6 folders and they all have about 50 of them in each folder. qq Pain in my butt. I'll take some time with my sigs from now on. |
| I don't know if I am slow then, but my works take from 1-3 hours for signatures, gfx entries and such. Layouts around 15hours, lol. |
 |
| i wanted to practice making cards/claims so i whipped this up. thoughts? i could always use some advice. also, what are people's methods for dotted borders in photoshop? i've been using the selection + pattern method but only the left and top gets the border so i have to duplicate it and move the layer again to get the other two sides. i hope that makes sense.  |
| I have never made a dotted border that small but maybe going to the shape tool, select rectangle, set fill to empty, stroke the color of the border, 1 pt and then next to stroke should be stroke options and you can do dashed lines there as well as mess with the properties of it. |
been experimenting with gradient map q-q which one do you guys prefer + any tips ? |
Senpai said: been experimenting with gradient map q-q which one do you guys prefer + any tips ? That looks really cool. I personally prefer the 1st one, the colours and blending is superb. Although the lighting is a bit off, imo. The render looks a tinnnny bit grainy, but that's about it. The text could use some work. I like the effects, but it looks a bit grainy. Overall, good job. I'd love to find out how you did the effects. (º﹃º) |

Finished that c4d thing i made earlier... would love CnC since it's the first time I tried using c4ds  |

 I think I made lots of mistakes here, and I tried not to rush. ;-; About 20 minutes taken. |
| Bah, not sure how to un-blend him now LOL Lemme give this a shot maybe  |

Nymil said: Bah, not sure how to un-blend him now LOL Lemme give this a shot maybe I can't see the previous version and I'm not exactly sure how one can blend something in too much I like this sig, it looks awesome. *thumbs up* your best work so far, in my opinion |
 |
Any opinions on these?  Seems like the only thing I can manage(ish) is the more girly style. I was struggling with the text and the brightness again :/ |

| something simple |
| The border and text both kill it. |
|
Agreed, the text mainly, I don't mind the border as much, maybe just making it thinner and a different color? In progress since I need to figure out text... but thoughts? |
mcxynth said: Etto...I'm making a new signature....but I couldn't decide on three ideas. x.x Your thoughts would be very much appreciated~ >,< Looks quite cool. The 2nd and 3rd one are out of the questions, the glows are too weird. The text is awesome. The render is low quality, so you need to fix that, and overall the quality of the signature is very low. It's a bit too monotone, but I'd still choose the first one. KIU :) |
| Agreed, the light orbs don't really fit since it's a different color and doesn't add to the flow of the signature... though it's really easy to fix by just color adjusting them and removing orbs that do not create flow, and you can also make it flow better by having one side with less/thinner amount of orbs and as you reach the other side, increase/widen the amount there. Other than that, I think the sig looks wonderful :) |

I just want to say you guys are all super inspiring!!! ; v; I love your GFXs!!! They are simply amazing! <3 I just recently got PS, so I'm still trying to get the hang of it hahaha I've been working with GIMP for a very long time, so the switch is kind of tough hahaha! I'm too used to GIMP! XD But here's a recent profile, sig, and icons I just recently made! ; v; Any C+C is very much appreciated! <3     |
 |
| good stuff but the text on the middle picture is really unreadable. |
Sylinchen said: good stuff but the text on the middle picture is really unreadable. Thanks! c: Any text/font you would suggest I could use? o: (I like using pixels too much for text haha ; v; ) |
|
| the font is not the problem, rather its the style that you used. I would never use a 3px outside border on a pixelfont. I would suggest something like that:  |
| OHHH!!! THAT HELPS A LOT!!! Thank you so very much!!! How did you get the text like that? O: Did you use a glowy effect (and turned down the opacity)? Thank you so much ahaha I've always had trouble with how to make my text more visible (when it comes to profiles and using pixel fonts) when the background isn't dark or black ; v; |
|
| I just used a darker color for the border and the border is just 1px. |
| Ahhh that's where I went wrong hahaha I tried doing 1px with a white border. (Also I just opened up my file and the border was actually 2px haha I thought it was 3px for sure XD ) Here's the change!! It's definitely more readable now!! ;v ; Thank you so very much again!!  |
|
Re-did that Konno Yuuki signature I had earlier done... and gave up on. I really like how this one ended up, though I wish I could have given the text more depth... still a work in progress however. |
Opinions on these :3 ?  |
 |
| Well, I changed my profile layout. I'm not happy with it, that much but it's better than having a mini-layout people couldn't see that well. :) |
|
OK so :   Which would you prefer? |
|
Yorium said: OK so : Which would you prefer? None of those fonts, imo. I'd go with a script font, but that's just me. |
