    Re: My first long hours work

    render looks way to blurred. i would suggest a better one, i have a really hard time seeing it. learn to blend better, try lowering the opacity sense your a novice, might work a lil' better. choose better text/colors

    if i had to chose one, it would be the middle one, color's go a little better

    2, you could use some tut's. I don't know what you did with the first one but it looks awfully bad. DB5 is the best looking and the highest quality. Try to go for (high)quality signatures. Well, the size is to big too it kinda looks like a banner. For a border you probably should use a 1px black/white line depending on the signature. The text..putting text on a signature is easy but making it look good, that is where the trouble start. Yet try to find some quality renders on for example Planet Renders v3, or just check the resource sticky. I hope this helps you a bit.

    Try to use stocks as background instead of makin them yourself(saves a shitload of time).

    Re: My first long hours work

    only good thing is the typo..
    but it dosn't match to the render and background..

    Tutorials - MMORPG Development Forums - RaGEZONE (sponsored by TFN.gr) maybe take a look here ;)
    or use google.

    and a few hints..
    dont belevel and embos renders.. looks terrible...
    + only filters for the bg isn't the best :/

    maybe try to get some brushes and custom shapes for the start.

    Less Filters version

    Rate my new work now
    5. Much better
    4. Improved indeed
    3. Can see an attempt
    2. No big differences
    1. Much worst than use to be

    I finished this faster, cause i cant find any ways/think of anythings to make it better. Theres only a 2 or 3 filters on the bg and a Neon Glow filter on the render and I cant think of anything else to add.
    Would anyone continue suggesting please..

    Well i guess ill just keep trying until some pure positive post comes up.

    More Filters version


    Continue with it..

    I had been creating borders via puting up a new layer of Solid Colour behind the image and smaller the real image abit estimating myself. Is there a way where I can choose the real mathematic thickness of the border?

    BTW a more anti black version,

    Re: My first long hours work

    I wasn't spamming, he told us to rate the sig and I rated it. How can that be a long hours work?

    Anyways, sorry if I sounded rude, but it is really bad. Make the sigs smaller, choose better renders with higher quality, choose better colors, go to dafont.com and choose a better font as well, blend the renders, and many other things.

    There are some good tuts in the tuts section, you should check them out

    Hey rate my new work now, btw all my fonts were dled, not from the origin of my formated system.

    BTW does anyone know a real way for a better border? cause i saw a creating border guide on the resource thread but the link was dead, so I was thinking if a professional way existed anot..

    Well Tutorials would help. Get familiar with the the options on PS and am sure you'll come up with good signatures.
