When Gunz stole the sigs and tutorials from the members here I contacted Sublime former jag member who was in the new clan where gunz posted all this stuff on their forums. He deleted all the graphics gunz was saying were his own and the tutorials... Also had the person remove the sig who was wearing it that belived gunz infact made it....

So I desided while I was looking at my renders today I would make him a gift Signature... After all its the thought that counts thank god lol my skill needs work.

I presented this to him on their forums as a thank you...


Comments welcome as well as tips to be better...

I will admit I just basicly fooled around with alot of new settings to me. Mostly blending options and blur and tried something new with the borders didnt know how it would come out but I dont think for being my 2nd sig its all that bad.

hrm...brutally honest eh?

well it's not bad for your second, i've seen people make worse on their first few.

some things
- the border is a little over the top, you could probably take off the innermost black stroke and it'll probably look better.
it's best to stick with the 1-2 px black stroke (blending type/opacity varies)
- the bg is too blurry and indistinct compared to the render. you'll proly want to redo it. and the colors don't look very good either, too much of a pinkish red. doesn't go well with the render.
- add a level adjustment layer at the very top of your work, and tweak it a little, it'll instantly make your sig look more vibrant and better.
- the motion blur around the render isn't doing much for it, you might as well take it off.
- the text is terrible. using the default yellow colored outer glow = bleh. if you want to keep that look, at least change the color of the glow to white.
you might also want to find a more suitable font.

Ok ill try and look up what this is and how this is done.

I agree after I made it I didnt like the border but wanted to try something. It didnt come out the way I wanted.


- the bg is too blurry and indistinct compared to the render. you'll proly want to redo it. and the colors don't look very good either, too much of a pinkish red. doesn't go well with the render.

Yea I didnt like the bg in the begining but figured I could fix it with the hue adjustment but yea I see your point.


- the motion blur around the render isn't doing much for it, you might as well take it off.

Yea I was hoping for a different effect but somewhere in the middle I took a wrong turn lol.


- the text is terrible. using the default yellow colored outer glow = bleh. if you want to keep that look, at least change the color of the glow to white.
you might also want to find a more suitable font.

Yea text seems to be really hard to me ill be looking for better fonts and read up on some text tutorials.


Thanks for the advice ill learn from it.
