That looks great KitKat, but Im not feeling the green bg, but Im in love with the stary bg behind it. The only
other advice I could offer is to lower the opasity for the text. Great job otherwise. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

Kitkat: Something about the thick strokes of the character combined with the thin details of the background seem to clash to me. That's the type of character render that would be tough to make a good sig with unless you specifically made a more simplified bg....like mine
Nice on KitKat. I agree with Assert about the background... and the text seems too thick... hard to make out the letters (the "a" and "r" at least). Other than that, it's lookin good.
Nice wallpaper as well Dragun. And that's some badass shit made from scratch Splash.
I've spent the past few days working (on and off) on my Shadow sig, using the advice you mentioned Kage, and still can't get it to look better than it is. So... I'll probably just keep it as it is. I need to find some more abstract renders to use as backgrounds.... Which, speaking of your advice Kage; you mentioned copying the layer, doing a few radial blurs, and then messing with the opacity. You also mentioned you changed your colours around to get multicoloured. My question is this: Do you use Image>Variations to change the colours or Image>Colour Balance? I've tried both... and done what you said to do... and it doesn't work. Any colour I notice looks like crap. Care to elaborate?
Thanks for the advice guys. Yeah, I've been noticing the clash too, and I've been trying to resolve it in different ways, but nothing so far has seemed really great. I'll keep working on it and I'll update you when I find a better solution.
I don't really like the Kairi text. And the render feels flat with the bg, it needs some lighting. I don't like the green stuff either, sorry KitKat, this one's just not doing anything for me.

1st sig: pretty cool, imo byakuya needs to be stretched out a bit, and the text needs to be a little darker and brighter
2nd sig: better then the first, although there is some parts from the original render around the hair on the left, nice text selection
3rd sig: the best of the three, I would say to change the text that goes with the style(try some opacity crap).
If you were going to use any of them, use the third one and if you don't I will KILL YOU!!!
yeah i love my thrid one but the Itachi render, i found the render left with white shot on the hair
the font for the last sig was Adorable, i think
new sig hmmmmm
so what's the deal with shadow the hedgehog anyway?
hes sic pro
now comment on the sig you graphic art college bastard
Yeah, who is the hedgehog. Is he somehow related to Sonic?
hah, well judging from alhuim's sig....it's hard to tell how much extra was done in addition to the original render. I'm not a big fan of the placement of your name, though.
BTW, check your PM frogking
Assert... I took that advice (along with some other about using different fonts in the name... couldn't find where you posted it though) and made a simplified sig... in a style like yours. And here it is...Quote:

Of course... I'm not the best at using different fonts for different letters... and making them run together smoothly... so it's in no way as good as yours... But I thought the simpilicity of the overall sig might make for a nice change this time. Congratulations... you inspired me!
Lookin good Alhuin. Nice use of text, although at first glance, I didn't even realize you were mixing font types [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img]
For some reason I get the feeling the bg would be better as the same shade of teal as the fireball though.
Yeah... I had it like that at first. It just seemed too... cluttered to me. Towards the left, where the fireball and bg are seperated by the black line... that's where I felt the problem was. So, I jsut inverted it and ended up with that pink. I also forgot to lower the opacity on the text... I think it would look better faded instead of bold like it is.
They look good, but you should try a little lighting in there.
Love the Christmas one AznRoyale!
Heh, you inspired me to do a Christmas sig of my own.
