    For that crappy of sig? I don't know where to start man. The sig could use a border, better text color. I didn't even know the brumak existed in that sig. The "particle" things look very misplaced too. I guess you couldn't help that though.

    2/5. The two because the size of the sig was good.

    I made two changes to it. I think it looks slightly better.

    Also, not to confuse anyone, but I used this rendered car and this stock. I added some C4Ds and such for other lights.

    Good job first of all.

    I like the C4D and car, along with the background. This does not mean they could be better.

    The text isn't all that great, and neither is the color of it. All of the picture blends too much, and nothing really stands out.

    3/5.

    true the text is awful and the lighting is dull
    unfortunately its the lighting on the stock so you can do much now...

    Great job, but it looks like at the right that the eye is cut or something. Other then that the effects are awesome.

    Once again the text is terrible. The color doesn't flow, and the font is ugly. Simple is better than being complex most of the times. The sig itself doesn't have too much flow, and looks a tad over-contrasted on my screen. You should do something to make the eye stand out more.

    Not much going on here, just a BG with a render. And some crappy text. What program do you use? If you use photoshop, try some gradient maps. They're harder to do in Gimp, but you can do them. And also check out some tuts.

    GimpTalk • Ultimate gimp tutorials and premier gimp community forum has some great stuff.
    Planet Renders v3 For Photoshop tutorials.

    Both sigs 1/5 for me.

    Harsh, Zombie. I guess that the only way they'll learn though. I'm sad face that noone commented on my graphics though. If someone could it'd be great. Zombie does have some points though...

    A Taco Bell, you can tell from your render that you pretty much just pasted it in...there is turqoise kind of color on the back-end of the render. I also think the text could be better too.

    DaFont.com has some cool ones

    @Furry;

    I think out of the three you posted here, the last is definitely the best (Your sig).
    The colours match nicely, and don't clash too much, although it looks like you only added a few overlay filters and smudged around the edges of each Spartan a little with a random brush.
    Regardless of what you did, I definitely think it works, and as I said before, apart from your various ideas and logos you've mocked up [for H3C] it's probably one of your best works so far.
    The only gripe I have with it is that I think it would look better with the 'f' in furry capitalised, so it's 'Furry' similar to the first image you posted.

    Overall I'd give it a 4.3/5, because I like the style of it, and while it's simple, I think it works nicely!

    The lighting effects coming from the bottom right really help with the flow of the sig. The lighting effects on the render are also good. I would rate this sig a 4.8/5.

    My first GIMP sig.

    Great first attempt. The sig also has great potential. A few problems first.

    The text does not match the sig as whole. It should be more medieval to match the theme. The sig is far too wide, and if you wish to keep it like that, you really need to put more into it. A good example would be more text, effects, or a background full of people. Work on that. More effects would help the signature a great amount, and help it show it's greatness. Try putting more C4D's in there to raise the "wow" factor of the signature.

    Overall, it equals a 2/5.

    There's plenty in GIMP that fulfill that need. Try Chartwell, or something. Otherwise use the stickies.

    Ahh. This signature is intresting. The colors are great, and there is some flow. The lighting could be a little better, but it's pretty good. The text still sucks. That font is getting old and it never looked good in the first place. And a tip to tall, text looks terrible in signatures corners.. Try getting the text involved in the signature(s).
    1.5/5
    [​IMG] The text is completely out of place. The sig itself is quite big. Some nice sizes are: 400x100, 370 x 125, and things like that. Those may even bee too wide for liking. There isn't really any flow, and the colors are yecky. Using simple fonts & colors are more affective. .5/5

    not bad, the background looks nice. Text looks out of place i agree with LOL. Try something simple and try moving it around and look for a nice spot. I dont like how the effects are overlapping the guy. Maybe try erasing that bit.

    havnt made a sig in too long ><
