Yeah not bad, not bad, could I make a few requests though?

I need the letters to be more visible, sorta almost 3d like, and also the MC looks like a drawing lol.

Blah, Photoshop is so easy to learn.

http://img86.imageshack.us/img86/3281/beta1oc7.png not a final design, not sure about the colors just yet.


The text on that is HORRIBLE. So no, Photoshop is not "easy to learn". You don't become good overnight, and you have a long ways to go yet.

I haven't really done much in photoshop as far as sigs and stuff are concerned for about 6 months now, but here's some of my more recent stuff:

1
2
3
4
5


Also, ChaosGFX is easily the best site for tutorials, contests, and general knowledge of Photoshop. Great community too.

Now you're mixing the ability to use the program with what YOU can create with it.
I already said it wasnt final and I was not happy/sure with it. I know the text isnt great meaning it is not yet done.

And no offense to you but the text on those sigs is horrible, hard to read and hardly a sign.

Not to mention all of your sigs are incredibly cliched, they do not stand out at all, there is nothing unique and interesting about them.

Did I say I'm a photoshop master? No. I did not. Go read up on some text tuts. It's too large, the stroke looks like vomit, and it doesn't fit your "unique" sig at all. The background is bland, has no depth, everything looks faded, it's too dark, and it looks flat.

When I made mine they were unique. I didn't follow some ****ty tutorial to make them. I used my knowledge of the program to make them. They weren't cliched, although maybe now they are - I don't know what the new fad is, it was grunge when I was keeping up with the gfx world, but who knows what it is now.

Are you saying yours is unique, and stands out? Sorry, but that's laughable.

Nice 1 Xign, maybe a bit brither and a little more feather on the outline and that would be perfect.

The problem with your theory is, I am not making a sig, the text is supposed to stand out because it identifies who it is. Not to mention you dont address what I originally said in my first post: I know those colors are crap, i just wanted to put the layout out there and the general look.

dude, unless u have previous experience with programs like it, theres no way u can just pick up photoshop and use it. its not paint...


Paints not that bad. You just have to know how to use it (that was made entirely with paint.)

Don't use brown outlines, and never do what you did to the background again.

Try re-reading one of my previous posts.

Text doesn't fit. Needs more than a tweak - new font, etc. As you said, it needs to stand out. It needs to pop. Black text with an olive boarder = not what you're looking for. Background doesn't fit with the render. BG is dull, with little to no depth, looks very blah and flat. Brush in a BG and add some colors, levels and B&C layers to add depth.

Still not happy with it though, working on it now.
