Hey guys,

I just made my first signature. Of course it's not good/great.
That's why I'm asking you guys for tips.

All tips are welcome, but please ,don't flame me with hate messages that I suck or what ever Thanks!

The pictures awesome but you should get a good text from dafont.com and associate the text coulor with either brown or the orange on his arm.

U SUX!

j.k, it looks good! A rule of thum for me, everything looks better with a thin black border.

Mushu thanks for the compliment and the link!


Oh double post... sorry :O

 

[Facey]

not bad.. i liked it w/o the blur.. maybe a lil perspective blur instead on the parts further away..

aaand yes a border unless you intend to make a transparency towards the end there.. which wouldnt look bad

Samus is a girl

Nice sig btw :3 (an yes, every sig looks better with a black frame)

 

[Full Grizzly]

Thanks guys!

And yes Samus is indeed a girl, people tend to forget;P

Is this your first sig?
It's actually quite good.
But like everyone has already said, a not too thick (I would use 2px)
and a good font that flows with the sig nicely, and the colors make it blend.

 

[Simon]

You should've seen my first sig >.< was horrific


All you really needed to do was change the text up, add a border, sharpen the focal and make it flow a bit more.

Great job for a first!

 

[Full Grizzly]

Thanks all <3

I'm trying to get rid off the Blur effect but It won't come off lawl.

 

[Full Grizzly]

Thanks all <3

The blur won't come off, and I find the render quite stupid. I only used it because Danielle ( the person who made The Ultimate Tutorial) used it too.

Another question, when I download fonts off dafont.com, I can't find them in my photoshop. How can I put the font in there?

You put fonts in c:\Windows\Fonts your operating system shouldn't matter. After you have done this, open up PS and see if they're there. If not, a quick system restart should fix it so they do show up.

 

[Ph?bus]

Or if you have Vista or 7 (I'm not sure with XP), you could click the font file, and it will have a pop-up window with a preview, and you can just click on the install button.

And why are you trying to remove the blur? It looks good. Blurs are pro.

 

[Grimm911]

just having the plain white blank spot on the right just seems odd. just my opinion. But for your first sig it is pretty good, im sure you will be able to improve your skills and be a great sig maker!

Thanks And about the white spot, it was supposed to be a background, with gold, white and blue.. Looked great! But then I over did in on the Blur I didn't get the point of the smudging at firts, because it wasn't covering up the whole render. I thought maybe I needed to do around it in oderder for the render to go blurry aswell, didn't work lol. So that's why the white spot just looks like a white spot

Well, I hope I'll improve lol

Oh and thanks for the help about the fonts Milwaukee and BASSdoken!

You guys are great!!

 

[Full Grizzly]

Guys, I made a new one, the render might not be WOW SO COOL nor the combination of the background/render But It's something

I finally know how to get new fonts into photoshop, thanks Milwaukee and BASSdoken

I'm off to do some homework so bye bye I'll be back in a bout an hour or so to keep on making sigs

Btw I'm looking for a test person! if you want to be this test person just reply on this thread, I'd be very happy to make my first sig for someone else And no lol I don't expect you to wear my sig if you're the test person. Thanks!

 

[Ph?bus]

I'll be your test person.
And also for the border,

Make a new layer,
Hit Control+A (Or Select All)
And then add the 2px inner stroke.

 

[Full Grizzly]
