    Eh, the concept is a little iffy. I'm not too sure it's actually "ironic" but I thought it was clever at the time!

    Some things:
    -I tried to get the shadows right. I thought a little bend would make it more interesting
    -Tried to keep it as simple as possible

    Do you really need a stock...

    Looks pretty cool. I know nothing about minecraft so I wouldn't get it. If would try making another version with all the shadows to one side and see how that looks. Would make more sense if you ask me.

    I don't play with the default texture pack, so correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe that block is an iron ore block, which is probably why its slightly Ironic.

    If the joke is what I think it is and I'm not halucinating from lack of sleep then you mistook a coal block for iron.
    If you meant to have a coal block and it relates to having a coal torch on a block of coal then I don't get it.

    This. As I said before, it seemed clever at the time. It's just very basic, dry humor.

    I got what you were going for immediately, and I thought it was pretty cool. Otherwise, there's nothing really notable, but the sig overall looks very nice. Nice font, composition, etc.

    Correct me if I am wrong, but it looks as if you have two separate shadows: one for the text and one for the block. The text seems like it's radial and the block seems like the light source comes from above.

    I may be mistaken, it's 6:32am.

    @Rorak, glad you understand it lol
    @QKT, Yeah..... don't flames produce random sorta "dancing" shadows too? I'd feel like an idiot if i were wrong..
    @Nox, yep, the light source is supposed to be the torch.. a little early for ya ;)

    Edit: removed the shadow behind the torch
