Why_Me's new Sig Thread

I decided to make a new sig thread, seeing as my old thread is really, really old. I've made two new sigs in the past two days (the first is better than the second), and I wanted to get back into making them. Now, keep in mind that, even if you make a request for a sig from me, I might not get around to it. Anyway, here are some samples of sigs that I've made:

I can make a sig for you using any of these styles, or I can experiment with new styles if you don't like any of these.

:O They're all amazing! And I really like that Paris one, you think maybe you could do one like that, ever so kindly, for me? :D

Thanks, guys. And @delta: sure. Do you want any specific city or location (i.e. mountains, fields, urban, rural) or do you want me to just attach your name to the Paris one?

I don't see why you couldn't use your old thread. A lot of imagers have their threads die for months and then just revive them with new images.

I like the one you're using now. It would've been great for SOTW.

True... but another reason is that there are a bunch of unfulfilled requests, and I'm a lazy teenager who doesn't want to have to do 9 sigs over the week.

And awesome. I'd join in, but I doubt I'd be allowed to use it now... Or would I be wrong? Or is it just that the week's competition is over? Either way, I might actually want to participate in a SOTW event for once.

And you very well may, soon enough.

Regardless, starting a new image thread is fine if you have a legitimate reason. I started a new image thread when I stopped using brushes, for example.

Well I think I am changing my style. I doubt I'll be using the grid-overlay style anymore.

:D Yay! And I like snow, and the extreme heat.. Do you think, if it isn't too much trouble, that you could make one of Vancouver, or a similar snowy city, sort of.. blending with someplace with extreme heat? I love to contrast. Thanks a million.

Okay, so how's this? I've also got it without a border, if you'd like to see it.

Tell me what you think. If you want it differently, I'll see what I can do.

I really like the image overall, but the white colour turning to actual colour is a bit quick, I mean you should expand the area where the colours change, also I think you might want to change the text's colour, it doesn't ift to rest of the image.

If you can manage to do these, this image would be superb.

Well I can't expand the shift between images, but I did put a black&white filter and messed with the hue/saturation of the right side:

What image program do you use? I might be able to help you out a bit if it is Photoshop. If it's GIMP, I hope the best for you.

I use Photoshop. I've got version CS4. But it's not that I don't know how, it's that I actually can't. a) For some reason I decided to cut the part of the blended pictures out of the large image and put it in it's own new file, so I can't go back to view the two pictures as separate layers, and b) Even if it was the original image, I don't think I'd be able to go back that many steps.

Slick: I tried a whole new style for your sig. If you don't like it, that's perfectly alright; I was just trying out this new style. If you do like it, though, then awesome. Either way, here it is:

New sig. Anyone can take it if they want it. Or I can slap your name on here, if you don't have any good fonts.

Just edit the text over there a bit, then that image will be perfect. Green doesn't fit. :/

Go to Edit > Preferences... > General

Look for "History States" and change the number in there to 100 or so.
