TRAINING GROUNDS DISCUSSION

[FireSaver82]

What exactly are we supposed to be doing in here. you posted the two links to the vert. and horizontal assasins creed sig. I went through those but the ones others have posted are not even from those tuts at all. do we just post stuff we have done from tuts or the specified ones you post?

they may not have used the images in the tuts but they did follow one of the tutorials. each week i post either an image or a tutorial, sometimes every other week, and you make a signature or banner or whatever with the image or tutorial provided. you then post your result in a new thread and youll receive cnc on it. this is basically just a place to follow a tutorial or work with an image you wouldnt normally choose yourself.

ok thanks for the clarifacation.

btw I got some cool fireworkpics tonight.I managed to do some awsome abstract images with mycamera thatI foresee using in some sigs. they look kinda like c4d's.

That's the fun of tuts riiight it's like taking apart a transmission once it's all apart all your thinking is how the **** do I put this back together

What file type do you need for sigs. I am trying to get one on from the GIMP, but the file types aren't accepted on the site. Any suggestions.

 

[xxThanatosx89]

For saving .png .jpg also export image to desktop if you save it will be a .xcf wich is pretty much save all layers and effects so you can edit it later if needed I'd recommend you upload them to photobucket it's way easier and you can get an img code right then and there

 

[XGC DMZ44]

Thanks, but i have motion to my pictures and when i export them, they don't have the motion. any other suggestions?

 

[xxThanatosx89]

By motion do you mean animation? You would have to save as .gif for the animation to stay

 

[XGC DMZ44]

Yes sorry, but is there a way to convert it so it works on the forms?

 

[xxThanatosx89]

I can probably figure it out think you could email it to me?

[XGC DMZ44]

I sent the message, if you could please tell me what you did so i can learn how to do it. Thanks again

 

[xxThanatosx89]

hows this?

 

[XGC DMZ44]

Great, how did you do it?

 

[xxThanatosx89]

Exported as .gif did like 300millisecond frames then uploaded it to photobucket

 

[XGC DMZ44]

[xxThanatosx89]

No problem hit me up if you have any more questions

Question for everyone:

What are your favourite/go to fonts when creating signatures?

 

[XGC TOMMYGUN XC]

I like Birth of a hero or anything simple like Architext, Blake, Century Gothic, Avanti. So there is a few pretty good Fonts, Some of them you can get here http://www.dafont.com/ and some of them should be defaults in your program you use to edit!! Hope this helps!!

This is my first one using different features from GIMP accepting any advice lol

 

[XGC DeWhit69]

Im not really all that good at blending a render into the background and all. in my signature block you'll see some of my works. Ive used photo shop for about 2 years on and off. any advice would be awesome.
