Signature Gallery (Show us your work)

Heres some experimenting I've been doing to find a new style. Don't rip it apart, it's a prototype...

Commence Criticism.

btw: working on the text a little bit more.

Edit: yeah, I know his head is cut off....

Edit2: creds to lillem, the glassy sig tutorial writer.

I like the glassy style, but yours need some work. It's just that your edges are really jagged and you "glass" overlay doesn't fad out; rather, it just stops.
Try working on the edges, all of them are pretty jagged, and making that glass layer fade out a lot more. If you fade it right there should be no visible edge to it and pin-pointing it's end should be somewhat difficult.

Just my $0.02...
 
Hey I did three sigs today, it were my first sigs.

Did all the sigs with Photoshop CS2 ver.9.

Sorry, but the 1st one...it's just not that good. :/ The text is kinda cool though. :)

2nd one: Don't like the bg, the render doesn't mix with it anyways (or any attempt at blending), and the text also doesn't match.

3rd one: Definitely the best of the 3 (obviously, practice makes perfect); much improvement from your second one. However, the text is pretty simple and isn't placed well (IMO), I also think there's too many renders. If you could make a cool effect and just put the one big render, it could look nice.

Then again, this is all coming from a 1-day photoshopper...

*EDIT*

Brawny, you suck and you need to get a life....

:p

Lol, okay. The brawny man avatar is just...nothing. It's just a render cut + paste. :/

Take Gymdawg's advice on the sig. :)

Yeah, I agree with you. BTW what's bg, and render?

Hey, I sense some hating going on. Did I offend you somewhere else or something?

Isn't it a lot easier to say what's wrong with a final product than actually putting it together? lol

If that avy could actually go into the right place, it would look better. Might add the logo too.

Yes, I'm editing the .xcf right now, according to gymdawg. I can't get the blending side-to-side better. The gradient going down is no problem. Any ideas?

bg = background :)

render = the picture that you cut out :) (i.e. the robot in mine, the Link in your black one, etc....)

That's what I figured...can't be sure on the interwebs though.

BTW: what's YOUR take on the overall idea of a glassy sig?

Of A glassy sig...I never really thought about it tbh. :/ I guess they look cool, it makes them look clean (which I like)...now what do I think about YOUR glassy sig?.....:lol:

Honestly, I can't give you any advice except to take Gymdawg's advice. :/ I don't know anything about them, so I can't really tell you how it should look.

my question is A

Thanks, I like the "clean" look.
I as well...unlike my current. :/ It's not that I don't like anything but clean looking sigs, it's just that I do like them...I also like the not-so-clean sigs like my current as well.
