Well then just keep the first version. I didn't think anything was wrong with it. The hand didn't look too out of place, but you were asking about what to do so I just mentioned something. But I think the first version still looks fuckin awesome! As does Lucifius from what I gathered in his posts. I say keep the first one.
Alright, final decision. Here are #1 (modified) and #3. Slight differences.
I still like the first one!
I was bored today so I decided to rewatch this weeks episode of naruto. I found this episode a little humorous, so I decided to make some sigs from some screens I took. Two of them are just goofy sigs because I was in goofy mood when I made them.
First one: Hinata and Naruto, this is the serious one. It occurs after hinata does her jutsu and almost passes out, and she comes to rest on naruto's shoulder. I think it turned out pretty nice!
Second one: Hinata and Naruto again. I had to do this, as soon as I saw the episode the idea was stuck in my head and this is the result. Once again I don't think it turned out too shabby.
Third one: I just loved the expression on naruto's face and since I couldn't come up with a good text line I just decided to show some love for the site and parody the got milk commercials since hes got toast in his mouth. I like this one alot too.
Ironically todays goofyness turned out to be some of the best work i've done in the last week or so. What do you guys think?

I like the first two, the third one is alittle boring. I don't like you avy, but that's just because everytime I see it I wanna puke.
hahahaha Its the gums isn't it... I can see what you mean with the third one. You'd almost be like "WTF" if I didn't explain it prehand. Any recommendations for the third sig?
I don't know, my sigs haven't been turning out great recently.Make the render bigger? Make the background more complicated and interesting. You should also think about adding borders to your sigs.
The wife beater one is by far the best.
Yeah I usually add a white border but have just been leaving them out lately. I pm'd you back, and I'll play around with the third sig to see if I can manage to think of something to do with the render, because I really want to use it.
Edit: ^ Yeah it seemed like too much of a good idea to abandon so I went for it and it turned out better than I thought

Hey, whatdya think of this, just had to do one after seeing it, but It doesn't feel right. Gonna try a different background and render if you guys don't lke it. Did three different versions.
Edit: My god, this got blurry. Can anyone tell how or direct me to info on how to save JPG equal to the quality of PNG according to Assertnfailure..... Or at least a more decent JPG then this....
I like it, but I am unaware of a way to save png quaility in a jpeg. I just take the hit and lose 50 pixels in my sigs so that I can save them as pngs. I would rather the work look better than have more area...
Edit: I have decided! I am going to use the render in the third sig as my avatar once I get around to making a new one Then I'm going to be updating my current sigs with borders because seeing the newones with out one is really bugging the hell out of me lol.

Bah, I'm watching too much One Piece, you guys have pulled way ahead of me.Got to start practicing with Photoshop again but One Piece is just so f*cking good... And they're so many Episodes already out for me to watch. Least I have a inspiration for sigs from One Piece, but no time. T-T
Judging from the filesizes of your JPGs, you saved them as very low quality. The thing about JPG format is that you can select the image quality. A high quality JPG should be about the same size as its PNG counterpart, while a low quality JPG would be about the size of your sigs. You are using Photoshop right? When you choose to save as JPG it should give you a quality selection window with quality on a scale of 1-12. A quality of 12 is almost lossless and is about the same size as PNG, while a size of 1 generates 400x100 of utter crap. It seems like you're saving them at about 3-5 quality.Originally Posted by Lucifus
My latest sig:
I really like how this one turned out. Comments would be appreciated.

IFHTT: Wife beater all the way man. That shit is hilarious. Just have to get a better background fo rit.
Lucifus: I don't know what kind of program you are using or what file type you're saving it as, but NONE of those are good quality. I like to go wiht .png (or at worst .gif) files, but ever since I switched from GIMP to Photoshop I've been at a loss as how to save quality files... I also recommend checking out NarutoMaster's Quality Enhancing thread (Gaussian Blue 2.5 to duplicat layer, set it on Overlay) for the first sig you posted.
XDark: I love the contrast going on in that sig and the background is good. But the text ('Best inthe World') is a little hard to read and the random cross shape is almost too intricate/prominent in the sig also, the color on the text for your name could be a little better/ more unique, dont ya think?
Humans are different from animals. We must die for a reason. Now is the time for us to regulate ourselves and reclaim our dignity. The one who holds endless potential and displays his strength and kindness to the world. Only mankind has God, a power that allows us to go above and beyond what we are now, a God that we call "possibility".
-Edit out the neon green feathers because they are very distracting.My latest sig:
I really like how this one turned out. Comments would be appreciated.
-Find a better picture of his sword if you want to use that. You could even try using a really big picture of it and blending it right into the background.
-Text color doesn't math the overall color scheme.
Like I said, JPG at 11 or 12 quality is very sufficient. The quality selection window pops up when you save as JPG, so I don't know how you miss that.

Thanks for the advice, not sure I chenged my own name too much because I don't want it to draw too much attention.
Hmm, what do you mean?
I also have two diff versions...

I think the second kicks ass. On the first I couldn't really tell that his sillouette was in the background w/ the sword, but the side shot on the second one looks cool.
I finally got my sigs some borders...
That is an awesome sig xdarkmaster. Keep up the good work.
The first one is better Darkmaster. The sillouette of him in it works very well but you need to work more with the background in the sig and the text. The Background is to flat and simple and the text just doesn't fit.
Okay, here's another fix...
Thanks for all the comments guys, please keep 'em coming.
