    I thought I would make a sig for my favorite strategy game on the 360. Please give feedback.

    The text is pixelated, and does not fit in with the BG. There are weird auras around the characters that make them look badly cut and pasted. The spartan has obvious eraser marks, and is badly placed, meaning the spartan is just sitting at the side, with no obvious reason for being there, but rather again just looking copy pasted.

    My main recommendation is fix the text, make it fit in, and dont let it be pixelated.

    Save as High quality Jpeg or Png.
    First off, stay away from using more than one render/stock in an image, it gives the viewer two focals, and you want the signature to have as much emphasis on ONE particular focal, that way it isn't sloppy/messy looking.

    Anywho, Try and make the text apart of the signature! Here take a look at this:

    Notice the text (referring to the bottom signature) is there, but it's apart of the sig, as if its in the background, which was accomplished by keeping it blurry, but still readable.
    This was made in a few minutes, so of course the sig doesn't look spectacular but it get's my point across. Crop that bad boy down to average signature size, and you got a decent signature actually! aha:

    Anywho, Instead of slapping some text on the sig after you are done, build it INTO the signature! And I can guarantee you, your signatures will start to look better and better :)

    Hope that helps! KIU

    ^^ yes! exactly ^_^ keep your font fairly simple and your colors equivelent to that of the colors on your signature. but still different enough to read
