Test your Skills

Anyone think they can make a sig out of this picture. I won't use it I would just like to see some good art. Trunks might like it though who knows.

[Toshiro]

Good pic.. I might attempt some thing.. Doubt it'll be good thou. Should be up tomorrowish.

Like Sauzaa said, it would be difficult to sig it. You could put it on the left, but then the sword would be cut off on the right. I could turn it into an awesome avatar, though.

Utilising the magic of rotation, 18 wins
Seriously though that's awesome, I love the effects on the right, works with the font too.

do somethin different, they all look the same.

[Android-18]

Shut up Kami. If you don't have anything nice to say don't say anything at all.

[Burter Jr]

I don't agree that they all look the same. Same border doesn't mean same sig

I like the boarders I use, they're simple. I'd rather use it than plan 1px black, or funky bulky ones.

learn to take criticism with a grain of salt instead of becoming defensive everytime someone gives you input that you disagree with

His imput wasn't very custructive. Maybe if he made suggestions as to HOW I could change things, then I'd take his advice.

*cough*

You have a very distinctive style with your signatures as of late. The turned up brightness, the blurred pictures, brush stroke esque backgrounds, it's all very nice. Really, they look nice, and while this seems to be the current artistic niche you're exploring, I emplore you to expand a bit more, and try some new things. You obviously have this style and form down pact, I would like to see someone who shows the potential to create many wonderful things to do so, what I'm not telling you is that everything sucks and that you should change your style completely.

I'm no signature expert, but from what I have done I know that creating a differenciation from one sig to another can be troublesome if you're making many, many signatures. I always started with different shapes and colors, working within the limitations of my photo editing software (MS Paint). You have photoshop, you clearly know your way around a little bit.

SO

Do something different.

I've done many styles and I like this one, I appreciate your suggestion of me picking a new style, but I will change when I feel the need for it.

That was a better reply, your last one just didn't sound very serious, so I took it the wrong way.

Everyone has their own kind of sig style, like Retanes is bright crazy brush style.

I have changed from 3D rendered BG's, to stockphoto manipulated BG's, to brush BG's. I have yet to find any other kind to explore, even if I do have Photoshop, I can't just change to something uber and cool unless I see a style I like and want to try and make something out of it.

This is just what happened when I was making sigs with my 3Dsmax renders, someone said "do something new they all look the same" well, I guess this is some viscious cycle or something.

*cough* Once I get my PhotoShop running, I'll try it. Really like that pic personally.
