I don't think I'll post an attempt for this one since I'm VERY new to making sigs and the last time I posted one of mine up against some of 'The Greats'.. Mine actually got picked, and I felt like an ass lol :lol:


DO IT.

Is that Kevin Spacey? :shock:

Who are those people in the back round? They look scary. The back round and the animated dude look cool though! :shock:

Also, what does that saying mean? :shock:

Please Give Feedback

First one looks good but I'm still looking for something that stands out more. Kind of reminds me of Black Hawk Down..hmm..*Ponders*

*Bangs head on desk* I hate being picky. Makes me feel like an ass. :(

I guarantee that if you upload the sig here (just in case it doesn't occur to you, I thought I'd better tell you to click this link) instead of using photobucket your sig will look fine. If I'm wrong then give me your ID and I'll send you 100Bil and 50k UU.

[spoiler]When I gave you my take on the issue, I assumed you were using photoshop correctly. If my diagnosis is wrong, though, then you've shrunk the render or sig without constraining the proportions first. In other words, the assumption at the beginning of this paragraph is wrong. When you shrink images you need to make sure that the percentage you are shrinking the length and width by are identical - length and width percentages are near the top when you're in photoshop in case you didn't know. Check the box beside the length and width, which should say "constrain proportions", to do this automatically. Reinsert the render and constrain the proportions when you shrink it.[/spoiler]


It wont be photobucket. I have used Photobucket for years with my signatures and they have come out fine. I originally used Pizco! lmao...

It can be photobucket, because they made the default image size smaller and if you upload an iamge which is too large it simply shrinks it, making it stretched. It's either than or what's in the spoiler, anyways.

what exactly on there is blurry?

cause I didn't add any effects to the spartan render :P

I don't know, it just looks a bit blurry. Maybe I'm insane, I don't know. :lol:

Tell me if you like this sample and/or what would you like to change:

Now that one I like, just the names would need to stand out more and I'd probably pick it. I like the phrase too! :lol:


Ok, i made a few adjustments to the text, colors and borders and came up with these:

Let me know which one is more apealing and what can i do more to improve it... personally i think they`re all awesome (but the one in front of the last one, is standing out more, because of the cooler blueish color). :-D

Thanks for the overall positive reaction.
No.. it's not Kevin Spacey, it's Kevin Sorbo. Andromeda star, and also Hercules. From the television series.
Female is Lucy Lawless, this particular picture is of her in her latest role as D'Anna in Battlestar Galactica, but she's also Xena. And has a few cross-over episodes with Hercules. Her series being a spin-off of Hercules'..

The saying is the actual wording used by Cicero, now deformed into the present day saying of "Inter arma enim silent leges". "For among (times of) arms, the law falls mute".

I'd pick Nigatsu's sig if I were you btw, it's the most in line with your current one.. very stable. People won't be confused. :P

I like the third very much. What about the font? Anything super cool you can do? :-D :shock:

SuperSaiyan wrote:hows this?

I shortened the width, and checked the proportions (twas fine)

so I have no idea whats causing the blurryness, must just be the pic I am using :P

I reckon the back round is what threw me. The white light distorts the photo. The name needs to stand out more.

But! Even if I don't pick anyone of these people above, I'll still give naquadah to people who deserve it and tried hard. Won't be as much as the one I do pick..but at least it will be some. :shock:

Super, have you ever tried Abstract?

I`ll search for a nice font to fit in. If not, i have another suggestion: would you like a frozen text effect to make it stand up a little more?
