The Signature/Avatar Show Off Thread.

[Eiturlyf]

EDIT2: by the way, the reason today I used GIMP, is because of one frustration with Paint.NET, when I wanted to have more vivid reds, and I couldn't just enhance the reds (at least, easily and fast - I think I can do it with the graph, but I haven't tried), while with GIMP I can do it fast and easy.

Just so you know, there are plugins for that: http://paintdotnet.forumer.com/viewtopi ... =16&t=4394 and http://paintdotnet.forumer.com/viewtopi ... or+Balance

Wait, too clean?

[Donfuy]

Yes, too clean, as in the font is kind of boring, and there is that "empty" color, making that zone... well... empty. I think it would be better if it were lower.

But that's only my opinion, of course :P

[cheese15624]

my avatar is kinda.....meh. but i like my sigs even tho i didnt make any of them. :P

just......ya know.....look down.....

[otters]

As a tip, use less periods in the future.

[Eiturlyf]

I like the lower one. Stick figures FTW.

Nice, Donfuy. You earn respect points for this.

Nice!

For some reason though, I can't actually find a sig I want to use, but I don't want the one I have at the moment.[/dilemapanic]

[SkyRay]

Hm, my first sig in months, critique would be nice.. what styles have people been into lately?

[Pheidippides]

Haha. I love those Brawl sigs with the messed-up faces, SkyRay.

I've made a new set myself. Better or worse than my current set?

holy shit, dude! The colors in that are AMAZING.
Now if you can just get blending down and create a sharper image (not too sharp though *glares at Techno*) then you're definitely on your way to becoming really good. I think a lot of people have the hardest time with color but you seem to understand it well enough to make something pretty.

[Pheidippides]

You think so, pawz? Thanks. :D

What parts of the image could be better sharpened/blended? And how should I go about it? I'd love to get some advice. I'm using Photoshop Elements 2, if that helps.

QFE. But I still see the render sharp on it's own, so maybe Topaz on that would work.

Topaz? After a quick Google search, I found this. Is that what you're talking about, and if so, how do I use it? It also seems to require a purchase, which I wasn't planning on. Thanks for your help, guys.

Yeah, that's it. It's not really a necessity. The only thing it does well is remove specks created from over-sharpening. For some reason, my trial hasn't run out yet. ?_?

[Pheidippides]

If that's the case, then is there anything else I should do to polish this off? I'm considering swapping it with my current one, but I want to make sure it's perfect before then.

Edit: After looking at the set some more, I've come to really like it as-is. Swapped.

New Signature Me Owd. It's clickable :)

[Eiturlyf]

Oh yeah, best sig ever.

[Cheez]

You guys like my sig? I think I did a good job on it, if I say so myself.

[otters]

Is it actually pixel art or just oversharpened?

not enough contrast!

[Universezero]

Yet another space set. Thoughts?
