See what I did here? To compliment the image better, I cleverly labeled where the aperture of the camera is.

Not only does it look stylish, it's a really small thing that made the image a whole lot better. The text you placed, GTM, was not only large and kinda ugly (though the blur effect to tie in with the rest of the image was good), it didn't even follow the line of the bottom of the camera exactly!
I also made another version where I had one letter of "aperture" in a different layer and then went about rotating each single piece of text slightly so that it followed the curve around the camera lens.
I was also going to label the camera with "aperture" but have the letters be upside-down and place it between those two round parts on the face of the camera.

There are a lot of things you can do with text, I just think that telling you what you could do wouldn't be quite as helpful as if I just showed you.
Ironically, I can't see the image atm given what computer I'm on, but thanks for the advice and w/e. Tbh, I did kind of rush that because I was under a lot of time pressure, and I'd done eveyrthing else I wanted with the sig apart from the text. I probably thought of it as an afterthought at the time, which was my undoing :/

Izzy's right in that I don't usually blend renders into my sigs, but I'd probably able to do that with the text. I do use layers and stuff, if I'm giving the impression otherwise.

Apse, pointless post.

I really wanted one. Anyway, if you find the time, I'd like a CoD WaW themed sig. Dominant colors - gray, red, etc.

When people say "Requests are closed" that means don't request. I've seen this happen on more than just GTM's image thread now (*cough//Zander'simagethreadcough*).

To reiterate what GTM has posted:
REQUESTS ARE CLOSED
So don't request anything.

Sorry I didn't pick it up. I've been off the forums for a while. I still like the sig. It makes me feel like one little thing against one huge thing. Thanks for making it!

Sig made by GTM. Thanks again!

Oh boo, transparency doesn't work with imageox. Maybe you could use it as a spoiler for the rest of sig instead? Otherwise, I'll happily make you a new one; I had no idea it'd come out like that.

Can I throw in a request for a sig for my mappacks, like Yungerkid has?
It would say 'Cosmic Matter' and 'Quantum Matter' with some cool blending of any of these images (or others, as you see fit)

When you get time, I'd also like a signature, with the words Unbaked Putto on it. Make it small. Thanks!

Gods Reaper, here's the last sig I'm ever making you. :P It was originally bigger, but I decided the bottom half was unnecessary.
