Waaaaay too much text. Work on colors and lighting.

For colors, use adjustments. I have a lot of trouble with colors as well. Simply experiment with different Gradient Maps on different modes and opacities. For lighting, well this tag is a tough one. You could dodge/burn for it and make it in one particular area. The bright area is sort of all over the focal. On most it is in one part of it. I know it's kinda confusing lol. If you need help ask me.

Lmao I loving this drama haha!
But anyways MasterBrent I ****ing love this sig. The flow, the colors, the effects, its all good dude!
But I believe v2 is my favorite out of all of them.
Now the only problem is the ****load of txt. May I recommend using some after effects to it. Like animate for each line to appear and disappear in the same spot or whatever. I think it would lok badass if you did that.
But overall MasterBrent ****ing Amazing!!!

@ Sandman:
I HATE it when people do this. Ticket didn't do ANYTHING wrong, and when he was asked for more explanation he was very helpful in his criticism and suggestions. He certainly wasn't impolite.
If you don't want someone to bring constructive criticism to your work, don't post it in the gallery.
@ the sig:
The greyscale and blue versions don't have enough contrast to support the focal. Make the tattoos more visible, for one. There's too much on top of them, move your blending effects to the outer edges of the focal rather than across it.
You did better on this in the orange tinted version, but it could use some of the same work.
I don't mind the AMOUNT of text, but in this case it doesn't all need to be readable. I would do a bottom to top fadeout gradient over the text layer, so the lyrics fade into view. Really only the last two lines need to be plainly visible.
In the blue version, there's just too much whiteout, reduce the amount of light coming from the left side and the flash in the middle.
BORDERS, it amazes me how few people use them these days. Even if it's just a slight inner glow, giving the image a visible end keeps it from looking like it's been "cut off".

Not starting anymore drama or anything but i see this misconception alot. The Graphic Gallery is a place for an any designers to show there work. CnC does occur alot in some of these threads but it is not necessary. Again not trying to start anything by saying this but i felt it necessary since im supposed to be keeping an eye on the gallery section per XGC KillnTym XD.

I notice that there is a thread explaining CnC and that there are prefixes one should use if they don't want their work critiqued.
Furthermore, it WAS asked for in this thread in the first post.
I'm not trying to stir drama either, I'm just pointing out that it is clearly stated CnC happens in the gallery and that there is a thread prefix to insert if you don't want critique on your work. So people either need to use it, or expect CnC to happen.

I agree with Chocobo.

It is true that there are prefixes that were originally intended for that purpose. However it was also determined a couple of months ago because of drama that if CnC is not asked for then not to offer it. My original post was not pertaining to this thread in particular yes brent did ask for CnC. I am not going against or with anyone merely stating that unless someone asks for CnC, like brent did, then please do not offer it. Sorry for any misunderstanding of the original post but as i said in this one, My posts in this thread are pertaining to all of the graphic gallery not just this thread.

okay people. i wanted to settle this for everyone. CnC is for the Artist that made the image and design team members only. If this continues to be a problem i will no long allow cnc in this area, period.

lol so I can't CnC anymore?
XGC Chocobo

Upfront, I want to say I agree with that ruling.
That aside, KillnTym, I didn't know there was anything to be settled. There was no "fighting" that I saw going on, we were discussing, I've learned from this discussion that the CnC options in the CnC thread are no longer being used, so this has been a good thing. (I do recommend, though, that this being the case, the CnC thread should be changed to make this clear, and should also include that only design team members should offer CnC.)

It actually is made clear on that sticky thread "What is CnC?". But what I really think is that we should start using the abbrievations that were placed in there like, ACE(Advanced Critique Encouraged), CW(Critique Welcomed), and CD(Critique Discouraged).

BK, those are the "prefixes" we've been discussing. From what's been said here, it seems those are no longer to be used and comments are not to be made unless the artist clearly asks for them. Also, I don't see anything after reading over it five times that says only design team members should offer CnC.

You are correct Chocobo the CnC thread does need to be changed it was one of the things brought up in the meeting and is being worked on at this moment. I also agree about the "fighting" thing i talked with kill some about it last night. I pointed out that there hasnt been any fighting since sandman and tickets little debate. That I was merely restating what we've talked about since all the drama and everything concering the gallery and a few individuals a while back. It got to the point that no one was listening to anyone and everyone was just continually ripping everything apart while no one said anything positive. After we got everything settled down we let everyone who was posting at the time know that CnC was no longer in threads unless it was asked for.
On a side note its good to see you back in action Chocobo nice to have another experienced designer back with us.
