[Sig] Just another sig

[SpadN]

Alrighty, here's my sig that I made.
Now I want to know how much it suck so I can learn from my mistakes and make a better.

And the first thing people notice is the Lens Flare that just looks like shit. Well, I didn't know how to make it properly so I just tried, and it kinda worked out Oo'

EDIT:
Time for Round 2!

[Matt]

It looks great.

[SpadN]

Thanks, any suggestions to what I should add or think of next time?

[gan_187]

I kinda suck big time at Photoshop so i'll say that ur sig is cool but try to change the font or smth at ur nick and do smth about the black zone, its a little big the rest is fine :)

[SpadN]

Yeah I thought so too, I'll try to re do it tomorrow and see if I can do it any better =)

[badessmagic]

take that jpeg and filter > sharpen > sharpen it and itll look more detailed in my opinion

[ElMarshal]

It just looks like
lens flare, light brush, render...

[Skycut]

1.too big
2.background is too basic. as elmarshal said brush and flare
3.the font seems a bit off

[silence1]

render blending is also needed...

[SpadN]

Thanks guys, i'll try to do following:
1. Fix the font style.
2. Fix the black hole in the left upper corner.
3. Change the size a bit?
4. Blend that Render!
5. ... umm, New background? :P we'll see if I can make it any better.

[ElMarshal]

Heres a quick tip on blending the render.

1- Start with your render on a single layer and switch it to luminosity.
2- Duplicate the render so you now have 2 renders on seperate layers (make sure the dup is above the luminosity), and switch the new duplicated render to normal with around 60% opacity (play with the amount some need more or less.)
3- Duplicate the luminosity again and put it on the top, now switch this duplicate to overlay, and hopefully the render will look alot more intune with the background set.

Continue to play with more duplicates and effects to make the render stand out more.

[SpadN]

Thx for the tip, I really need it because i'm stuck at the blending the render part

This is how it looks at the moment.



I know the font style suck but it's hopefully better than the other one.
So, any improvements? And what I should think of next. Except for the render part.

[SpadN]

Ok, some changes. I followed ElMarshals tip and it looks like this. Now i'm quite satisfied with the render. So now I need tips on how to get the font to look good. =/

[Ytys Vynsan]

your gettin there =] just look at my ones xD

[Pieman]

the quality of the render is horrible, fix that, and blend it more. as for the text dont use all those fancy flashy fonts, just use arial or something, make it white and put the opacity on 70% or whatever. and blend the ragezone text more

[SpadN]

I can't find a better image of the render atm. If anyone knows where I can find, post it here, jsut don't say google because i've searched. And how exactly do you think I should blend the Ragezone text? And the arial text just sux. But I know what you mean, i've been thinking of what font I should use but i can't find the one I want.

[ElMarshal]

render just needs sharpening to improve its quality.
Spadn text is good, but another font is needed for the ragezone area. Something basic like visitor might do the trick..
I also think that the whitish part thats ment to make the render stand out more, could do with lowering its opacity.

[SpadN]

Uhum.. The Ragezone text IS the Visitor font :P But it looks like crap, i've fixed it now though.

As for the Sharping part, I don't think it got so much sharpened =/

[ElMarshal]

Looks better now, i'd move on to your next work now.

[SpadN]

Hell yeah, this sig is now closed.
