First Ever Sig, Inevitably Not The Best Of Sigs - I thought that i should learn.

Bkag
So, i thought that i have been depriving myself of the knowledge of making sigs for too long, so i had my first attempt, i have done abit with photo shopping and photo editing (all in gimp) but never a sig.

So i made a sig in GIMP, i also (for the sig) made a pattern for scan lines which seemed to work well.

Please give me some constructive comments, bearing in mind that i am a complete n00b biggrin.gif

Ps, if anybody is interested, check out my Rc truck bash video i made yestereday biggrin.gif its quite good i think tongue.gif http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2rW1zAHt9rA

EDIT:: Missed off the boarder tongue.gif, that is now on biggrin.gif

biggrin.gif Thanks, i am going to try another one later today, but i will be using my own picture of my truck, so that the sig can be for my forum biggrin.gif

I have a question (since you seem quite/very experienced) the way i built it up was with the red swirly bit as a layer, then a layer of randomness, using a lot of different brushes, all black, but when i tried to change the color balance of that layer, nothing changed, whats up with that wacko.gif

Reply

Clessi
Lol. Cause you cant colour balance black areas. You can always try Hue/Saturation instead - Tick colorize and shift the lightness up. Vary the hue/saturation to your desire.

Bkag
Ahh ok, got it, thanks biggrin.gif

Now the next one should, in theory be better tongue.gif

I agree that sig is actually pretty good.. just a few things that could be done are Blending the render just a bit. and also try using differnt text and also try blending the text in to kinda match the sig

Reply

Bkag
Now how would i blend the render, just abit of blur around the edges blink.gif i will experiment with the text abit biggrin.gif

It's very cool actually! smile.gif Why are you putting yourself down for nothing? tongue.gif Keep designing, I'd love to see more sigs by you! smile.gif

Reply

Bkag
Thanks Ink, i actually wrote the title before it was done, and was predicting it to be horriable, i have changed it to "not the best of sigs" tongue.gif

I was going to be doing another tonight of a pic of my truck, but it started raining sad.gif

Ill do another one at about 10 tonight (uk time)

Reply

Bkag
Yey, did another sig, as promised, and i think this one is much better, went abit funky on the text tongue.gif

Constructive criticisms?

    look to catch a glimpse of a girl's *bottom* 20 yards behind him or that feeling you get when
    someone is present but you can't see them. Our brains pick up on each other's fields of

    impact of what was recently thought about non-human primates. The truth to the matter is that these
    animals are actually more intelligent and mentally capable than recently thought to be. Some
    researchers are even saying that these primates’ poses levels and types of intelligence thought only
    to be used by humans. These tests and studies conducted show unequivocal demonstr....

    matter what point it will be in it will always have more weight on one side that the other. As seen
    here As we can see here. There is three on the right and two on the left. This will make it

    There are many ideas that come up in this world that science has either failed to or just simply

    Human beings for some reason, must know exactly how this world works and the reasons as to why such
    a creation is able to function in some sort of way. Through this reasoning, people constantly try to
    find ways to believe in what they want to believe, and therefore turn to some sort of religion to
    explain the world to them. With this in mind, there have been many religions creat....

    Polish minister of education as the only one, criticized the idea. He is some kind of nationalist
    but this is not the point. The point is - do you think that it is possible to create the same
    handbook for all European countries keeping in mind their completely different histories? Do you
    think that is is possible to make a list of most importan events in European history that cou....

    games, however, manage to do a bit of both. Flight Simulator X is a good example: it’s not
    only fun, you just might learn something. The vast scope of this Microsoft game will overwhelm at
    first, especially if you’ve never played a flight simulator before. This latest version in
