None of which have anything to do with any FFs.
 Prolly the best drawing I've ever made. I really have no skills outside of computer art. I tried digitally colouring it in, but the program crashed halfway through.    The best sigs I've made to date. Heck, I might actually try and draw something FF-related for once. I can't do faces to save my life though. Oh, and I AM goldenquagsire, FYI. Just in case any members of Psypoke happen to stumble across here. This post has been edited by Sinslayer on 24th July 2007 16:18 -------------------- |

Haha, I love the Li'l Cactus signature image. I particularly like that one and the "goldenquagsire" image. It seems you have a nice talent towards that sort of art.

Heh, those are only my latest sigs! I used to be REALLY bad at them.
 THAT bad. IMO, the sigs don't look too bad considering I don't have Photoshop. A little project is being worked on... Wait and see if I don't go insane trying to reach the end... -------------------- |

Personally I think the "Don't be so Prickly" sig looks the best.
The two beneath it look good, but i don't know what they are. And the Team Rocket one looks pretty good, but It's missing something, and I don't know what. -------------------- "Have you ever seen a baby do that before?" |

I also liked the "Don't be so Prickly" sig the best, too. Not a fan of pokemon, but when it comes to sigs you're quite talented. Team Rocket one looked good for sometihng done with MSPaint. I used to get so many pictures and cram them all into one big banner with a whole colored background and text.

I was using it as an example of my early (crap) work. I tried to draw Kain last night. [FAILED] Quote ("NeoEx-Death") Team Rocket one looked good for sometihng done with MSPaint. I know it looks rough, but I actually used a different program - GIMP. Google it if you don't know what it is. -------------------- |

The "don't be so prickly" sig is a little hard to read, in my opinion. Regardless, you show that you have an eye for combining colors.
And hey, if you want to learn how to draw faces, there are lots of good art tutorials online to help you. Just do a google search for it. -------------------- |

 An updated version of the "Kroot_Lord" sig, with glow effects on the text and higher contrast on the background. -------------------- |

The drawing's no great shakes, but hey, I can't draw either. At least you're trying.
 I used to make sigs by the dozens when I belonged to a forum to which I no longer go. I ceased to see the utility, you know? Plus, they competed on them, and I liked the competition. These are all pretty solid, nothing groundbreaking but they look just fine. The Cactus one is my favorite as well though I think the text could use some polishing so it's more legible. -------------------- "To create something great, you need the means to make a lot of really bad crap." - Kevin Kelly Why aren't you shopping AmaCoN? |

 I've discovered the Cloud function of GIMP. I'll have a new sig by the end of the night, even if I quit my French homework. Oh, and is it just me or is the Topic Reply notification not working? I only just found R51's post because I was in this forum updating the thread.. -------------------- |

For once, I think my own hand drawn artwork could match that of a submission here.
However, your sigs are another matter entirely. Extremely well done.  -------------------- Join the Army, see the world, meet interesting people - and kill them. ~Pacifist Badge, 1978 |

First off, I'd like to say thanks to everyone for the encouragement.
I've finally done it. My best sig to date. I've used just about every trick in the book, and here is the result:  And yet still, I find the render annoying... -------------------- |

Is that what that is? You overfiltered that image quite a bit, you pretty much lost everything that was in it.

I'm gonna have to go with R51 here. You've got some skill in design and aesthetic organization, but your rendering itself is far too convoluted for me to exalt on high. I'd say the biggest trap in image editing is over-filtering.
Of course, I come from a somewhat "less is more" school of thinking. -------------------- I find your lack of faith disturbing... |

Hm. I took your guys' opinions into mind, and I procuced this:
 OMG, something actually FF-related! -------------------- |

Took me a good thirty seconds to realize that there was anything there but the green and red. I still don't know if it's actually FF-related, I just can't tell? I see what might be a nose...

Ah. Looking at it now, I see I over-used the transparency settings.
It's Vincent Valentine, BTW. If I get a chance in-between my parents shutting off the power every five minutes, I'll remake it. I still have the background and the render. This post has been edited by Sinslayer on 22nd January 2007 20:10 -------------------- |

Okay, I made two versions.

I liked the second one better. Not really a fan of seeing Vincent's face covered in.

I like it, especially how Vincent fades into the background to bring an even more mysterious part to his character. All your sigs are awesome, and cannot even give any advice because your doing nothing wrong has I see as of yet. Your drawings aren't bad, just use a little more detail and shading.
Very well done! -------------------- Acts 2:38 Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Chrsit for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost Acts 4:12 Matthew 28:19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost |

I like the black and white one that you just did. The sharpened one you did before that, not so much.
Before that, I like the greenish gold one that's under the word and, but don't like the one above it, and I really don't like the red and green one. The problem with the ones I don't like is that there's stuff blocking Vincent's face, so he's in the background. And I don't like the red and green one additionally because I just don't like that colour combo. My favourite is the black and white one. -------------------- I had an old signature. Now I've changed it. |

I agree, I think if you're adamant on using that Vincent image, the black and white one is definitely a step in the right direction. It's the nicest looking of all of them.

I always find that the darker and fewer colours, the better.
Yep, I can't be bothered to find a new render. ;; Nah, my next sig will have a different piccie. -------------------- |
