My first sig - suggestions plz

tsukemaru · 09-02-2008, 02:07 PM

hello, my first time, can anyone give me suggestions?

HappyMojo · 09-02-2008, 04:40 PM

I haven't really made any sigs in a LONG time. Though one thing I found very useful were tutorials.(I hope this doesn't upset you, I gave this suggestion once before and people gave me a lot of trouble for it)

One things I always tried to remember was that you should never use filters. It's not a big deal if you do, I know I have certainly used them before. Also try going online and downloading brushes, or make your own. It isn't to hard to install them. Just go into Program Files>Adobe>Adobe Photoshop>Presets>Brushes and stick your brush in there.

One little thing, text. It can be helpful to use different text. To install new ones just download then go to your control panel and then find something that's says either "Fonts" or "Texts" and drop in whatever text you downloaded there.

I hope that helps. I think the most important thing is to keep at it. The more you experiment and keep at it the better you'll come get. Let me know if you have any questions.

yams ... it's yet another megabyte sig >.>"

looks quite good imo... maybe make the font a bit larger so it s easier to read or take one that is easy to read to begin with ( not supposed to look like "handscript" )

I didn't make that. All the sigs I ever made are LONG gone.

tsukemaru · 09-02-2008, 05:24 PM

simple, cause it looks like a rendered image which has nothing done to it, and text and some lines and inner glow... if you could make it something like...

*looks for example*

Spoiler!

that, try to use some brushes, try to experiment to see if its good or not... that what i did even before i started to read any tut... thats just one of the sig i made for the SOTW.

over all, its good ^^

tsukemaru · 09-02-2008, 08:44 PM

nice.... well i added some brushes but im still have trouble doing sumthing to the girl... >_>"

this is wat i have so far...

hm... y is it smaller here than wat i have in 100% in PS window?

de-kun · 09-02-2008, 09:21 PM

nice, version two is very nice..but for me it looks like a button or something because of the size xD
but that is just my personal taste....well, about the tuts..they help you to get new techniques and all, but i never read one myself...techniques you can learn with people here in the forum, but i recomend you to read the tuts, they are an easy way to learn...i'm just a studborn xD
anwyay, keep practicing, try new effects and see hoe they looks like..post your results here like you are doing and keep on rising...that is the best way^^

tsukemaru · 09-03-2008, 06:55 AM
