Official Graphics Comments & Criticism

Wiired said:
I vote number #2 based on the fact #1 isn't really a sig. Make #1 down into sig sort of dimensions and such, then I'd say that :)

Whaaa?? But Gym did it in the Anime week, you know that Linkin Park themed with white border... I'm sure that's not a problem for Stranger...
 
Stranger said:
bumpage!


okay, anyways.

I need opinions on tons of new stuff.

Ok, first things first.

Which of these should I enter into SOTW 9?

#1

or

#2
Optimus-Prime_Sig2.gif


So.....

Any critique or comments on any of this work?

Any at all is appreciated.

Thanks again,

-Brandon

For SOTW I think you need to go with the first one since the 2nd one is not actually from a movie released this year its a cartoon render from one of the transformers cartoon series. I also tend to agree with Wiired on the size thing...I looks more like just an image than a sig. It's a great design though I absolutely love it. Just change the size to look a bit more like a sig.

I didn't say he couldn't, I'm just saying I recon he should go for the other - based on which I prefer and what I think will get votes. Just expressing my opinion :rolleyes:

Ah ok

Yeah it's not really a sig, and people could not vote for it because it's different, different then the others.

Yes BRANDON!!! w00t. Best sig ever. The flow is amazingly well done and I can actually imagine him running through a forest like that. Amazing "Link" text. I would say this is your best sig ever if you would have just taken the "Sherwood" text out, it ruins it all!!!! Best sig ever though.

Thats a nice way to come to a conclusion. :lol:
Nice Sig by the way.
demonflair said:
Damm Tyler, your sig is awesome :D
Definitely your best sig so far...
We're cool + our posts are cool = our section is the kewliest

Thanks, I really do appreciate it since my past 3 or 4 sigs have...well, just plain out sucked ass. Thanks again. Any critique on my ghost rider sig?....Please don't even mention the text. :]

*BUMPFORSOMEREASON*

New sig, just for laughs. It didnt' take long, and I know it's very bright...i'll fix that. Anyways, I think this is one of my better text sigs, I usually make it look horrible. xD If anyone could critique about anything but the brightness, thanks. :]

Other than the brightness it's pretty good :] personally recon it could do with a 1 px border, that would look good. Other then that I recommend with future projects, having an initial light source, in which the sig goes from bright to dark, giving it a more lifelike effect, and with fonts, instead of looking for detailed ones (which you've done in the past) look for simple ones. Simple one I started off using was Arial Narrow, but you can just go on www.dafont.com and find some simple ones there. Though saying that, detailed fonts do look good with certain sigs. Sort out the lighting, and it should be great.

S'all gravy baby.
Here's sig I'm working on for SOTW.
I'm getting into this whole vector scene, so decided to vector the guy I'm doing (Common) to add more effect :)
This it so far:

woopwoop
thats vector style, but thats not a real vector, its low quality, and it didnt cling

http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/39784903/?qo=21&q=by:cknapp151&qh=sort:time+-in:scraps


theres are vector i started a long time ago, have no plans of ever finishing, the thing with vectors is it has to has a cling effect where if i shrunk that pic down, it wouldnt get all grainy, it would still look the same, the only tool in photoshop capible of doing true vectors is the pen tool

Yeah I know :) I use the select tool first when doing vectors, then I use the pen tool afterwards to straighten things out (I find it easier that way), only really vectored the hat properly so far. I'll post some of mine that I did for my Art project in the Art Thread sometime :] thanks for pointing it out nonetheless.

Edit: Forgot to say, loving your vectors, especially the ol' Charmander

Ya, you heard him Mike. Your vectors suck. :/



Thanks for your advice anywayzzz, it helps a lot. I started doing the whole light source schnizz, but then I stopped....maybe the light source can be his ass?
