Here's a sig I've been working on. Tell me what you think. Spoiler Different text: Spoiler I know they're a little big, I'll size them down. EDIT: New Version: Spoiler
Other than size down you should rework the proportions. E.G. make it wider. I understand that with that picture making it wider would leave some extra space on one of the sides, but depending on your stock (you should post the original image as well) that negative space could be worked out and actually employed. As for the actual image, without the stock we have no way of knowing just what you did other then the font and border. Both of which could use some addressing. The font on the first one, lose the underline. The font on the second, ... do something completely different. Those streaks make it confusing to look at. As a whole both of the fonts need to be working into the actual image better, they distract from the focal and have no flow within the piece whatsoever. A suggestion about what to do with the font would be to blend and curve it along the lines of the mouth. Oh, and your border, slim it down. one pixel is plenty on any signature IMO. Hope I don't sound rude, just pointing out what I would do differently.
The text in the second one fits better with the style imo. Underlining and skinny text looks out of place. Overall well done.
No you don't sound rude, thanks for the advice. Here's the stock image: I added a gradient, new eyes, custom glow on the eyes, and grittiness on the teeth. I like your idea of making the text flow with the teeth. I'll work on another variant and post it up.
