Hows my new sig?

[nomi]

Hows my new sig? all it was, was a learning experience for me and this is the final product...
Criticize away!

[Triv1um]

Not too bad...

The dude is wayyyy to blurey, and im not a big fan of the text.

Slap a boarder on it, and darken it up.

Hows this? which ones better?! i tried making the guy a little less blurry...

[Triv1um]

Whats with all the textures that your using?

I suggest starting again. Use a sig that is the full 120px high, and make it more narrow.

Use a high res render, and dont shrink it too much. Remember the render is going to be the main eye catch part.

Add a light source with a large soft brush.

Stay away from those funky textures. Are you using photoshop?

Yours is smart Triv1um, you got any other stuff you've done online?

Anyway, Nomi - you're learning, and it shows. I'd agree with the points above, just arse about with Photoshop for a while and you'll naturally improve. Then you can go back and laugh at how shoddy your beginning stuff is in comparison lol.

Emphasize Kratos a bit more, too....his image is kinda blurred.

Yeah, he looks like from a 1998's 3D game

Yes I'm using photoshop.. Thanks for all your help I will start over on another version and upload it.. Then you may criticize again! Thanks again!


EDIT: Here is the new signature that came up with your help!

Triv1um: what did you mean by high res render, and the light source with a soft brush. (I am just a beginner) Thanks

as in start of with a higher quality image of kratos from somewhere like this:
http://planetrenders.net/

as for lighting, i thin he means make a new layer and set it to linear dodge (others will work try experimenting) then using a soft edge brush on a low opactiy paint on that layer with a colour the same as the light source you want to make.
