Assistance/Advice on Sigs

[H2O BloodyHoofz]

So I tried my hand at making a couple GRFS themed sigs for myself. Not sure how much I like either of them, cause I know for a fact they both could be tons better (just that I currently don't have the skill/know-how to get it done).

Let me know what you think:





Also any tips, tricks, etc would be greatly appreciated.

Put together a couple more, I know they need some work, but I don't know much about how to use GIMP





This one was done by one of the guys on the UBI forums

If you are looking for good tutorials on how to use GIMP, check out GimpTricks a channel on youtube. She doesn't necessarily do signature tutorials, but she gets you comfortable doing some different techniques that you can use when making sigs. She has taught me everything I know about making sigs =D Hope that helps. =D

Well I finally got one that I like
.

But the guy did offer one other that looked really good as well:



Also I added that link to my bookmarks and will start trying to see what all I can throw together.

Something that I started toying with this morning at work:



Only thing I really don't like about them is that they look a little too plain in the middle around my name. That will change once I finish my recruitment, but for now they look a little blah.

[H2O BloodyHoofz]

Would this sig be allowed for me seeing as though I'm still only a recruit?

Very nice! Yea you can definitely use it

[H2O BloodyHoofz]

Updated it a little:

*see current sig*

Trying to make the "Tom Clancy's" & "Future Soldier" text pop out a little better

Seems I'm still tweaking it, trying to add more without making it look over crowded...

Ok I'm done touching this one... anymore and it'll look like my kid's room.

Working on an avatar right now, still not done but this is what I've got so far:



Thoughts/comments???

Newest edition to something I'm putting together

[H2O Marine77]

That's a cool one

[H2O BloodyHoofz]

I like it, but it still needs some tweaking. I was mainly trying to focus on the textured background image I made, trying to see how it blends and works with my text/renders. Here's the textured background I made that I'm working with:

You are definately getting better... I think that the sig that you and Marine are using look pretty awesome! Just be carefule on your text. I have found that the fancier the text is the harder it is to read it. I found a really cool one on Dafont It is called Varsity Playbook. It is the text that I used on my current sig.

Also remeber that your sigs can only be 500 x 150 and I think like 750 kb... You will get an infraction if they are larger.

[H2O BloodyHoofz]

The text that I did on the one that I'm working with kinda looks hard to read mainly cause I made it beveled with a chrome effect, then turned it a shade of GR blue. which almost blends too well with my background.

[H2O Marine77]

dafont does have some nice fonts n ty pnk..

[H2O BloodyHoofz]

New image to my render collection:


Now gotta think of a way to incorporate it into a sig...
