[Hinode]

Mentioning alot of people but ditching me. I feel myself so hated.

It looks like you had a hard time with the rendering? :/

 

[zad38]

aww sorry, forgive me... ill throw you in now XD

 

[Rucking Fetard]

I've never even see both of you meet one another (maybe wrong but still how do you expect him to know someone that he has never even met or has but only for a very short while XD)

Practice eh.. keep doing it *thumbs up*

 

[Hinode]

[MENTION=41434]Nazaka[/MENTION]; Harvest Moon/Rune Factory thread :3

 

[zad38]

you'll like the natalie/elena one's then XD

 

[Rucking Fetard]

Oh, didn't know XD
but he probably thought you have no interest in sigs that much (considering the people he mentioned has talks about his sig at times)

 

[Hinode]

you'll like the natalie/elena one's then XD

I like the Elena one :3

Oh, didn't know XD
but he probably thought you have no interest in sigs that much (considering the people he mentioned has talks about his sig at times)

Yeah, I guess :< The only one I speak about siggys with is HG ^^

 

[zad38]

when i finished the elena one i rolled around my bed cuz it was my master piece and looks so cute <3 haha thats why i made a set from it XD

 

[Anistahp]

You (and a lot of members here) seem to think that a signature is a: 'complex'/c4d background coupled with a character render at the edge or somewhere, and a text slapped onto them.
A (great) signature is one that stands out with a new formula or idea, this is were one's creativity kicks in.

But to be honest, they are better than my first attempts at signatures; back in 2008, I made my first one, and it was more less the same formula as above, albeit a bit worse. I remember using PS to put the render in front of the background, then I used MS Paint and Arial font for my username.

For superior signature ideas, please have inspiration from mine :D.

 

[zad38]

ummm... thanks?

i will say though, im not going for a new look im attempting to find a anime signature style i like so i dont think that will be needed

 

[Rucking Fetard]

I don't even know what a signature (for forums) is, I just follow other people XD

 

[Dark Angel]

Zad keep going and trying and you will become better and better ;)

 

[zad38]

thanks angel XD

 

[Dark Angel]

you a re using GIMP or Photoshop (personaly) i had never used GIMP i din't even now it's existence

 

[zad38]

fair does i didn't know about it either at first

 

[Selvaria Bles]

Nice attempts

Pro tip: break the mold :p

Time to try a different formula.

 

[zad38]

different formula?

 

[Dark Angel]

i am thinking something withmultiple transparent from hair and clothes with two deferent ways :) i am thinking about Leo-Sama yea the Queen Leo of Dog Days :) i have render one very nice image :D

Also i have render Brioche d'Arquien and Yukikaze Panettone i have to think something good :D especialy fro Yukikaze and Leo-Sama :D

 

[Selvaria Bles]

Your currently using the basic formula in making a sig

A simple background with a pop out render with text.

It looks nice but you need to develop your own style which takes time.

Keep the basic foruma and add your personal touch to it and make it your own design.
Hence change the formula.

Creativity comes with risks, you need to experiment with the software in order figure out how you can be creative.

 

[zad38]

oh you mean different style's, yeah i think ill perfect what im doing the now before i try that sort of stuff

 

[Selvaria Bles]

Basically yeah you need to perfect what your doing first definitely.

Also everytime you create a sig try adding something new to it, that's how you will learn.


I never make the same sigs all time.

 

[Dark Angel]

i suggest you trying many diferent effects ;) and other tools also trying mix diferent walppapers for background and play with opticality, also try redering diferent background to make some effect that you can use with transparency at the image like the leaves from seraphim's siggy and flower i made ;) i have many things that i can suggest you,

Personal (do not take as bad thing or badmouthing the rounding around the background) PERSONAL OPINION DO NOT TAKE IT THE BAD WAY!!! It's just that i don't like it.
It's the same for other that maybe they don't like that i using the outglowing effect and dropping shadow effect :)

So Basicaly do whatever your heart wants !!!

 

[zad38]

hmm, then dark, in your other sig, you used a leave boarder, can i ask how you done that?

 

[Selvaria Bles]

You know da you can remove the glowing effect and drop down shadow effect as well :p
