Unlike Masa, Im a huge fan of desaturation. I can also see the text clearly, I dont know what Lucifus is talking about. But one thing I can add is that the sig is too big, you have too much worthless space. Try shortening it a little, or making your render bigger. It'd be cool to see the text over the flowers.
Good points people. Thanks alot. Although i don't agree with the last opinion that the sig is to big. It would kill it if i made it shorter in my opinion..
Hey guys, been a long time since i dropped by this forum. But I figured I'll drop back in the same way I started with a ...narutoxsakura sig... just a simple fanart render, but i needed a sig and finally got some time to jump into photoshop.... comments plx...
ehhh i kinda felt like the saturation of the render was a bit much in the first one heres the updated one.

Is that a carnival attraction or something in the background? The main problem i have with it is that the background feels depressing while the render is cheerful, it's a nice idea you got going but the bg and render got very diffrent moods which spoils it for me. Keep trying though, you got something there.
So here's my newest work, i'm experimenting with white backgrounds so give me some comments on this piece.
PSJ - the desaturation works very well on the right behind the hair. There's alot going on with the background (that a c4d, correct?) and so it seems weird that further out in the sig, her hand is sorta out of focus and colored that way. The lighting on it just seems a bit off. Also, bump the text over to the right a bit more so we can see that 'P'
IFHTT- the less saturated version is better (also the TT in the corner). I don't get the feeling that the background is depressing, but the lack of colors might give people that... I dunno, maybe try some blurred colors and set the layer to 'Color' over the right portion of the background.
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".
Actually it's not a c4d i have created all of the background simply by using the render a couple of times and a brush.
Thanks for the input, i'll be sure to think about it. I'm not sure if i will try to fix this sig up though as i don't like it all that much now after seeing it a few times.
Made this from Lucifus' tutorial... I tried to find a nice text, but couldn't find what I was looking for inside of CS3's text database. Text effects were drop shadow, inner glow, and bevel/emboss.
Anyway, it's Illidan, from World of Warcraft: The Burning Crusade, and if you've seen the intro video you'll get the text. Comments are welcome.
EDIT: I plan on making an Arthas Menethil sig in commemoration of "Wrath of the Lich King", as soon as I find a proper render...

Maybe you should try changing the text color, and making the ripples more visible since the background seems a bit plain. Red and green seems to clash a bit too much, and the upper left corner is kinda blank. I like the render though.
Peace.
I see what you mean about the corner, and I'm thinking of modifying this as soon as I can get my computer back up and running (it crashed earlier tonight, and I'm seeking to repair it)Originally Posted by shinta|hikari
Anyway, the render is the pretty much overused pic of Illidan, I just modifyed it a bit, so that the eyes slanted a bit more, and it looked as if he were in heat fumes. Just minor touch-ups, really... and about the red text, I sorta liked the contrast, but I'll see about other color choices...
EDIT: Compare this to Original, which is my current

Did a render with Urahara and thought it would be fitting for a new banner because the render is pretty small.
Again I'm not so sure about the background though... Comments are welcome
All i can say is that your current one with naruto is very cool, haven't seen that one before.
i don't like it, just because of the empty background. The render is good though, as is the font. I'm not a big fan of the blood splotch though... seems to clash with the colors in the Urahara render... Good lighting behind the splotch, though.
Python, the one with the logo on it is better, simply because there's less emptyness that way. The blurry one could have a better 'intimidation factor' than the sharp one, if you work on it more and incorporate the blurriness as a theme throughout the sig. The patch of red/brown on the left hand side needs to go. The text needs to be improved on both, and I'd suggest you go look for some fonts.

Two new sets with greater dimensions courtesy of DF's Farewell Contest.
Clare:
Galatea:
Also made this for the contest but since thats done with I slapped my name on it.

the Galatea avatar is great, but I'm not a big fan of the sig itself. The Clare one, however, is great. The C in the Saber sig is a little weird.
it's been a long time since i've come up with anything... but don't be afraid to be harsh; just tell me what needs changing...
and an already slightly different second version... (just some added color to the black)
The character is Reinhard von Lohengramm, from Legend of the Galactic Heroes, the best goddamn space opera ever.
third attempt... fails with lighting...

I'm official.
I can barly tell what the robot was if I didn't watch FLCL.
But I guess that was what you were going for. I say its a win.
I really like this set. But I must stay faithful to C.C.
And yes...I did replace Clares eyes with Rigardo. The eyes just own.
Christ I wish Random Images.net was still around......
I see you're having fun with your sig increasements. Nice sig and why is my internet so slow?
And play some Lunia!
Yes I am. =) And I have been playing Lunia! You havn't been on.
Also, why didnt you enter you bastard.
And why I didn't enter the contest? I didn't have time to photoshop. I was way too busy with school (im a college man you know) and work. Also, I was too scared of your leet photoshopping skills and I didn't want to embarass myself.
Well I have been on actually
Level 28 now and I made a +9 Dimly Shining Sword! Its so sexy haha
