OLD GALLERY PAGES

[VwC Venom]

not bad work here...my one suggestion is to make sure that your renders or stocks arent too stretched out horizontally because thats how some of them look...other than that keep up the good work...what program do you use?

 

[WorldsOnlyHope]

Really can you give me an example of one that you think looks really obvious?

And sadly, for all of these, I was only able to use Adobe Elements 5.0. Yep oldschool! LOL I don't even have CS2 anymore....sad times. But I got to make with what I got.

Thanks for stopping by.

maybe its not that it is stretched to far, it might be that you are enlarging it so much because the render looks like it is really low quality...if you have a render that starts off small dont enlarge it too much because it will start to look kind of weird like this one

 

[VwC Venom]

oh and another cool thing you do, with the WH set it to overlay so that you can barely see it...it will look so much cooler...i do the same thing in my sigs, if you go look at my album in the design forum on my last three sigs i have hidden messages

Good job with the wallpaper Tidal. The only thing I would sugest is use something less drull for the backround. Maybe an explosion or a scenery? But I do love the concept of a Spartan carrying an Elite. Very nice.

Also good work on your sigs.

Thanks, I appreciate it. I'm still learning and creating a graphical background on any scale (especially a large one like a wallpaper) presents quite a challenge for me.

hey where do you fined renders like the one in your sig and the wallpaper. its very nice and just a quesrtion any time i upload a sig i make its always blurry and its not on anyother sights other than this one?

 

[KEVO241]

why is that

 

[Deadly Pandaman]

That is pretty B.A. That would be an awesome Banner!!! 10/10

MY SECOND TRY AT A SIG.

My second try at a sig.

This is my second attempt at making sigs if you would i would really like for you guys to give some good criticism so i can become a better sig. maker and if you think of anything that would make it better plz post it.


This is 1.2 of that sig. I used "The King and Queen" font and the Lucida Calligraphy like you suggested Chocobo. Aan i also put a border around it like you guys suggested. I also tried blending in the render a little more so here is the new one.

 

[XGC Chocobo]

Well, in this case it works out really well actually, but you've done very little if any blending of the render INTO the background. Try adding layers with blurs and different blending modes on top of renders to make them "fit" the background better.

Also, pet peeve of mine, the FONT. College profs allow Arial, Veranda, and Times New Roman only for a REASON. Well, two reasons actually *cough*, but one of the reasons is that they're clean and easy to read. Almost ALWAYS use a simple font so it's easy to read, I typically only use fancy ones as the first letters in the word or here and there randomly. For a sig like this, I would probably use "The King & Queen" font as the first letters and then use Lucida Calligraphy, which has a cursive/itallic flare to it but is yet read easily enough.

Also, almost ALWAYS use black, white, or transparent text in your images as opposed to colored, and try to use only one color per sig.

Last thing based of this piece, there's no border. Play with beveling and embossing and/or using the rectangle and oval selection tools to give your images a more polished edge.

Yeah, sadly the render was very low quality... I liked the picture but I had to pull it from a television analog capture. Wasn't the high def pic I would have wanted. It was a huge resolution though just poor quality.

Maybe I should just avoid those kind of images. Thanks

LOL Nice, I'll take a look at that. You should probably put a link to your album on your signature so that it would be more accessible to viewers.

So, what you want me to do is play with the opacity of the text?

[SYN Cheddarbob]

New Sigs!

 

[VwC Venom]

you work is getting much better keep it up

 

[VwC Venom]

the coolest thing to do is set it on a new layer and set that layer to overlay

 

[VwC Venom]

i love that second vector sig that you have

 

[SYN Cheddarbob]

Thanks, it took hours to get right lol

 

[VwC Venom]

i bet, vectoring is hard
