Signature Gallery (Show us your work)

Did every mask of advice given to me by you fitkids, and came up with this:
new2rz6.jpg

Used a gradient overlay to give it more of a dark-to-light feel, though I feel using contrast and that, has make the right side to bright.. Used a sexy pinkish redish colour balance (well I think so, me be colourblind :]) and I'm rather happy with it, cept the whiter bit.. hmm.. thoughts please? Thanks lads.

Edit: also dan99iel, loving your newest sig, I think it's better than your current tbh :] Though I feel if you start experimenting with light sources and shade etc.. it will make your sigs even better :]

Brawny, you can set your color to a very light yellow or plain white and do a 'radial' 'FG to transparent' gradient. Hope you understood that :). Or you could just download a soft brush and lower the opacity of the brush and/or layer :).

And SSBB, i also think it's time for a sig update :).

Ok thanks...I will have to throw something together when I have time.

Btw: you using GIMP or PS? I want to know exactly the differences between the two and why opensource is looked down upon so much....

Nice sig! I too, like it better than current.
 
Ok people, I know I need to change!!! I want to get good first though...i'm reading some tuts, just give me a few more days...

Dan99iel, likin the kirby sig. :)
 
Stop procrastinating, ssbb_lover.

Also, excellent sig, Wiired. I was never a big fan of that style of edges, but the rest looks great.

Aye aye aye...I don't think i'm cut out for this sig making stuff. I guess I need to start out with more noob material...

Just made this....(I know it's bad bg, no text, etc. I was trying to focus on the image, but even that turned out to be crap. :/ )

*EDIT*

Wow, it looks even worse on here...*sigh*
 
A nice border would bring it out.
get some grunge/fractal brushes.
Render is a little blurry. Get a bigger one? planetrenders.net is a good alternative to gamerenders.com

Wiichat/Photobucket made it blurry. >.< It isn't that way in Photoshop.

Like I said, I was only focusing on the image, or I would done all that other stuff. :)

Maybe it was the exporting out of PS?

I guess, I tried saving as both a JPEG as well as a GIF. Neither of them had better quality then the other....which is unusual.
 
dude, png's the way to go.

Edit: Here's some more that I put together over the day. There's an avy too.

Comments please. Help me to understand why my mind is telling me that my sigs quail in comparison to wiired/bubbagump/gymdawg

Edit2: Ok, now I'm pissed. I can't edit my avatar or my usertitle..... I have to use a default one!! I can't pm i0n either. I need prez or something to do it for me.

1st avvy: babdly made tbh...it's a super simple bg with a render that doesn't match it put next to it...

2nd: bad

3rd: I like #2 much better

I would like to evaluate better but I have to go! Tomorrow, Brawny!

Like Brawny said, save it as a .png next time. That will give you the best quality possible and it'll look exactly like it does on your monitor.

Your avatar is mismatched, very mismatched; though I do like the Brawny guy.
Both of the sigs have renders that don't work with the background, much like your avatar. They could also use some blending. Basically, just take a look at some of the other banners you see around here, like mine or Wiired's or Mario Famous', for example, and you can get a good idea what I mean.
