Great work on Archie's sig Lucifus! But really...he should've used that Pikachu. XD
And I love the new work. Rei, Haruhi and KOS MOS!
I really like the text in the Rei signature, the way the L stretches. ^^;
Random note: My signature NOW features Lili from Tekken.
I honestly think I change sets too often.
Omg peer pressure!! ill use the pikachu!!!
Amazing set btw junior i really like it. Id steal it from u if it wasnt pink
Haha, thanks muchieZ my lady.
KitKatZ got that role in my life alreadies. O, and I do like your signature btws.
Flash them colaz AA. I mainly didn't make you a avatar because I couldn't find anything that could be linked to a male angel and be fit into a 100x100 avatar; I also couldn't find another image o that guy in your signature and I dont like using the same image for both Ava/Sig. So, I suggest you start training that little yellow rat.
Oh My God Saya!!!!!!!

Your set is epic. I prefer the banner in your signature to the other one. it feels more...harsh. *shrugs*
I love both avatars but I'm glad you went with the eye one. It's so...creepy.
>.> This set is not my best. Seriously. I WAS going to go with a different set but I chose this hoping the pink would irrirate everyone and make their eyes bleed.
Lucifus, God of photoshop, I seek your advice.
Should I change? D: I feel like giving the impression I'm a guy.

Good, then less guys will stop hitting on you Im starting to get jelous :P
Besides , that sig looks awsome
Btw lucifus you'll be happy to know that my pikachu is already at lvl 10
Junior, I'll make you specifically a tutorial on my latest if you promise to give it a shot. I'll make er as simple as I can.
It's a deal. I have free time now and I'm looking to try new styles. =)
OMG THANK YOU LUCIFUS. Dx
haha, thanks Archie. XD Nice work. You will soon be a Pokemon Master! Gotta catch'em all~
Luci back in the photoshopZ! Here's my comments:
I like the two Saya sigs with the clean lines, warm colours, and faded bits. You always have a really good sense of which colours go well together, and your backgrounds have lovely colour gradients which match your renders. The first Saya avatar though seems too harsh. It doesn't seem to match with the colour scheme. Maybe it's just the render being coloured and lighted fairly differently. I also really like the 'pretend text' effect on the first sig.
Going back to your previous set you made, I feel like the generic C4D render background just isn't that exciting for the first two. It's just kind of there, but not really complementing your renders in the first two. The Haruhi one has promise, however (and this applies to the first of that set as well) the text has got to go. It's too big, partially unreadable, and just looks shoddy. I know very well the trials and tribulations of text. You can usually make your text look professional and polished though, as you demonstrated quite nicely in your most recent set. If you fix the text on the Haruhi one, you'll have a very nice sig.
And I second the call for a tutorial. I'd make a siggy from it if you wrote up another tut for gotwoot, and you know how hard it is to drag me away from my knitting these days. :P
Hehehe! Thank yee so very much for the comments and critique!
Glad ya pointed out my 'errors'. I think they would be okay, if I used them in moderation. I'm applying too much stuff and taking up too much space.
Gotta keep er simplistic.
Halfway through said tutorial and I'm thinking its my best one yet.
But now, I gotta ask....why aren't you in bed?

Lucifus, I just wanted to thank you for that tutorial. ^^ I went through it this afternoon, but...I needed to stock up on renders.(thanks for giving that render site btw)
It's a really great and useful tutorial!
I'll probably have results tomorrow. >3
Where is the tutorial posted?? I need some help fast my sigs suck :P
Enjoy
Well...I tried the tutorial a few times, followed bits of it and sometimes the full.
>.>
Last one WAS still in progress...but it was outcome after first trying the tutorial.
...I need more practise.
hum the first one looks nearly perfect
the text in the botten left however is too much and a bit annoying in my eyes..
and the left side is a bit "too" black

I agree that the first one there is the best out of that set. One thing that I think you could work on that would make your sigs stand out a lot more is putting some more light-dark variation into your backgrounds. What makes the first sig the most visually appealing is that your background moves from dark to light. If you go back in this thread and look at the different sigs Luci has made, you'll notice that his backgrounds are never uniform but always incorporate some light areas and some dark areas. Ideally, you want to design this contrast so that it brings more focus to your render.
Looking good though. I think you've got lots of potential. I'm looking forward to seeing more sigs from you!
I get what you're saying...they feel too...monotone. There's nothing...eye catching and there's no emphasis.
I'll go back to PS and play around a bit more to see if I can improve in the lighting department...and the composition department.
Lighting... So THAT'S his ultimate secret. =o
Thanks for helping me out KitKat. <3
Well, I tried out your new tutorial, Luci! I thought that it was a tad confusing in a couple places, but overall very well done. My outcome from the tut is my new current.
Go Darker than Black Sig!!! I just wish I have photoshop. Are these done on the second least costly package? The cheapest package sounds really basic.
172 My first appearance...
100 pages later....I've come a long way...
Loving it KK; Junior, will comment later; in the middle of a CSS clan war. ^^
Edit: Buffalo, torrent you pansy!
rofl @ Luci's pansy comment
But yeah, I tried using GIMP for a while, cause I decided I wanted to make my software more legal, but it was just so frustrating. The simplest things that I could do in 2 seconds in PS took way too much effort. So I went back to good ol' CS2. It's just too awesome for you not to use it.
