Whoops, my bad :S Ive edited it in now. Heres it is...

Postby **Sniperwhere** » 2008.10.23 (19:16)

I meant a sig bar as in long and thin, but okay.

I love it to death
But I can't open it, I always get redirected to some imageshack thing. Could you help me, so I can take it as my definite signature?:)

http://nmaps.net/user/Guitar_Hero_Matt · Postby **MattKestrel** » 2008.10.23 (20:03)

Ill add this to the first post, as this is the second time someones had problems. Ill edit the urls out of the images, but just to let you know...

The get one of these into your sig, right click it and go to properties. Then just paste the url into the signature as an IMG. You know the rest :P

And Sniperwhere, sorry if it was a little larger, I could make you a 300x 90 version instead. As for sigbars, theres no way a fractal would look good in one of those. :P

oh, posh. Get over your username :P

I really really like incluye's. Mine... I don't think the blur works well, but I do appreciate the time you spent on it. I can see how making letters out of fractals would be pretty difficult.

As for the others, they remind me of your other stuff. Can you make different shaped fractals? It seems like all the ones you've been making have been generally the same type of shape, if not exactly the same.

Unfortunately, thats the limitation of paint.net. Theres only two types of fractals, and the other one looks kinda oddly symetrical. Im sure I could remove that somehow, but I havent really tried it yet. The two sigs using it are IsaacX's and Erik-Player's, you tell me. However, Ive been working hard to make most of the sigs look distinct through various means, but inevitably theyll look similar. Imo thats a good thing, it basically associates me with excellent use of the mandelbrot :P

And about your sig, personally I found that the blur did a nice job with it. It looked horribly sharp and unrefined before, but imo the blur adds atmosphere to the sepia tones, almost making it look like a photo imo.

Try that and see if you can't get some cool stuff, or maybe just other fractals.

*gasps and faints*

"Sell a man a fish and youll feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish and youve lost a wonderful business opportunity"

Sorry, just thought that quote was hopelessly relevant :P

On an unrelated note, Rambo could be getting his sig today, possibly. Possibly not :P

There's a fern fractal plugin buried somewhere in there.
And I made this:

http://nmaps.net/user/Guitar_Hero_Matt · Postby **MattKestrel** » 2008.10.24 (16:54)

Yeah, I downloaded that plugin ages ago, but tbh its not that good. Ill have a look at the effects.

http://nmaps.net/user/crescor · Postby **crescor** » 2008.10.24 (17:20)

Still can't open my image:(

http://nmaps.net/user/Guitar_Hero_Matt · Postby **MattKestrel** » 2008.10.24 (17:29)

Are you sure? Ive right clicked, selected properties, and copied and pasted the url in here, and it works fine for me. Dont try right clicking and selecting open, that doesnt work. Just do what I outlined on the first page. On an unrelated note, Rambo's signature is ready.

Postby **Evil_Sire** » 2008.10.24 (17:36)

Works for me.

Probably because I have commanded it with my EVIL brain to give me the image.

http://nmaps.net/user/Guitar_Hero_Matt · Postby **MattKestrel** » 2008.10.24 (17:50)

:)

So, do you think Im making any interesting developments? Im really trying to get creative with some of these. Why dont I make you a sig for a change? On another unrelated note, Ive revised Yungerkid's a little bit; the revised version can be found in this post only.

Postby **Evil_Sire** » 2008.10.24 (18:00)

Ha, well thing is dude, when the USB ports on my comp are working, i'll be making loads on my lap-top.

But still, it'd be nice to see the results, I might even use it.

http://nmaps.net/user/Guitar_Hero_Matt · Postby **MattKestrel** » 2008.10.24 (18:27)

Sure thing, heres one to add to your collection :P

Postby **Evil_Sire** » 2008.10.24 (18:31)

That font is... EVIL

I like it, i'll be changing my siggy tomorrow to that.

http://nmaps.net/user/Guitar_Hero_Matt · Postby **MattKestrel** » 2008.10.24 (19:15)

Oooh, it appears I have made another sig for myself....

And thanks for the support Sire :P

http://nmaps.net/user/crescor · Postby **crescor** » 2008.10.24 (20:04)

thanks dude, it totally worked:)

http://nmaps.net/user/Guitar_Hero_Matt · Postby **MattKestrel** » 2008.10.25 (11:36)

Lol, I never realised that Izzy asked for a sig until just now. Ive tried to be really creative with the firey effects I can do, hope he likes the font :)

:(

http://nmaps.net/user/Guitar_Hero_Matt · Postby **MattKestrel** » 2008.10.27 (13:29)

I did the redraft ages ago, but imo I can still do better. Ill work on it Splinter! :)

On an unrelated note, here's Gods Reaper's sig after he requested it via PM

http://nmaps.net/user/Guitar_Hero_Matt · Postby **MattKestrel** » 2008.10.27 (14:39)

And heres you 2nd redraft Splinter, I think its pretty cool, tried some new stuff.

http://nmaps.net/user/Eiturlyf · Postby **Eiturlyf** » 2008.10.27 (14:59)

Yeah, you're pretty basically fucked.
