The NEW Daryn Make Over Thread!

[eternalshiva]

*copy pastes from saved thread*
Attention all sig makers [and those interested!]
*whispers* Leeza said this was ok and she might sticky it for a while!

It has been brought to my attention in the Signature Section (http://forums.eyesonff.com/showthread.php?t=42968) that a fine member of the EoFF community is looking to have a make over, a face lift of some kind that would be quite challenging for those who are willing and eager *I'm even coming out of retirement for this so >.< PARTICIPATE*

Here is the request:

I'm looking to see if anyone is willing to make me over. Name, sig, avatar and help me come up with something to represent me. Right now I'm just me...Daryn. Xander was nice enough to get Raincloud to host my sig, but I'm looking for something more me, and less Final Fantasy. I'm thinking of a theme centered around fusion, or that biohazard sign, or wolves. I like the colors, blue, green, red, black, cream, white, orange, and anything pastel.

I know this is something pretty big to ask of anyone, so I don't expect it to be done for me, but it would be nice.

This feels weird stating this again.

I think the color scheme of black, cream, and navy would look good.

[eternalshiva]

lol I know.

I think he mentioned something about a yin yan symbol too, in the last thread.

[Baloki]

*Had it saved but has lost it, sorry*

[Kirobaito]

Vince, there's nothing there.

[Stayin Dizzy]

*sigh*

I've been throwing away a lot of sketches based of the original ideas. I'm a pretty decent artist, but am having trouble finding what I want from myself

[eternalshiva]

^^ I'll have something for you Daryn tonight! I've been thinking about you and your sig and I'm taking a break from coding stuff for Site Staff tonight, I'll make one for you SINCE EVERYONE ELSE GOT LAZY >.<

A mod can close this thread or unsticky it I guess, I'll just post my thing in the Signature thread.

*hate for lazy people* :love:

Hey I'm playing around with ideas, is that too little effort for you?

[zacks_clone]

I have been browsing for images about the web.Stuff i can toss together and edit and maybe get something from it...Sadly,im so flippen confuzed to gdo much more. If you would like,i could try my hand at a drawing...but I warn you,i am not that good.

:: is one of lazy peoples :D ::

[eternalshiva]

xD

You guys don't have to DRAW anything, do a sig and avantar with nothing holding you back! ^^ he suggested a few themes to play around with that's all xD

sillies xD

So I had to threaten to get the thread closed to get answers >:/ and any effort is great Baloki ;p I'm just being cranky. SHUSH FM!!

and Zacks_clone I love your siggy! It still makes me want to read CxZ yaoi they look like such a cute boy couple xD *sigh* what doujinshi is that from?

[Baloki]

Signature Image and Avatar Attached :)


Now theres my effort, I hope its all right. I tried to combine all the stuff you wanted into the images, and still keep it not too cluttered. Although I didn't finish the sig image by adding the username to it because I didn't know what you wanted it to be. If you decide to use my sig tell me the name you want logo'd on it and I'll do it :)

[zacks_clone]

xD

Oh goodness...What was it from...Honestly I have no clue.Yubinbasya is the artist. Thats about all I know. I got the images from papercut (http://paper.nii-jyeni.org/). If i do manage to find what it's from,i'll tell you. Sorry.

Ahhh!Baloki, i really like the looks of that. Great job!Wounderful

Ya know, Baloki, I hate people like you.

You can make good looking sigs and make it look like you did nothing at all. It took me a week to make my stupid piece of crap sig.

[eternalshiva]

holy s**t Baloki! 0_0'

Could you take a suggstion? maybe make the what do you call it image in the back ground darker, I can't really tell what it is. but I say again

Holy s**t!

[Phil]

I just need somebody to help me attatch the new sig I made. ITs too big, and I cant save it as a .gif. If I could i.m. it to somebody over aim my sn is vincentc06. Thanks-

Hey as I said earlier its taken me two weeks so quit your complaining.

I'll see if I can add a darker layer if I get a chance.

Edit: Very cool sig btw Vincent

[Phil]

thanks :D

[Stayin Dizzy]

Wow, I almost gave up onm this but thought I'd check back to see if anyone went at it. tnx a lot so far to everyone.

I feel like a jerk, because it's hard expressing what you want without trying to ask the artist to change, so I'll just say it.

Boloki has the imaging idea down pat. I want something crisp like that, but a lot less purple. It makes me feel girly.

Vince's sketch incorporates the themes I like but I really don't want my name in it, and I'd drop the word wolf at the bottom. It just stands alone screaming "WOLF!!!" at me. LoL. I've been toying with the idea of like an anime drawing meets vince. like the site zacks_clone offered (papercut) style, but with the yin-yang. Like scribbled clean and crisp, is the best I can say. And exagerate the lines on the biohazard sign. like make the archs thin and when the tips at the end jut out, make them long and jagged like a blade I just drew it on paper (I have no scanner), and the biohazard sign looks almost like a throwing star.. I'm seeing all this in my mind in grayscale, all shaded (like the style Leeza's is in ((the unne drawing))).

Alright, after more drawing I have what I want essentially. But I need a good artist, or a great gif finder with good photoshop skills. I continued from the biohazard sign and added the shaded yin-yang in the center of it. So as an artist myself, I wanted it to have depth so I made the yin yang my forground, the biohazard my middle ground and put a cross as my background. It's looks good to me, but I'm open to new ideas as well. I was thinking maybe streaking a name (my new one) across it in the background as well, but as I can't think of one its hard to get the image in mind. I'm thinking of something in sharp letters though, or perhaps like (psychotics lettering is the only example of lettering I can think of that looks different in the sense i'm thinking) or something of the sort.

Anyone wanna take a whack at that?? I'm still thinking for a name and avatar as well, and I feel really rewarded that all you guys are trying to help out. Kepp any ideas posted :D

[Baloki]

I'll need a few days though

[zacks_clone]

i'll hack away at it while i can. Vacation is almost over for me and i am leaving for the day,but i'll do my best.Also, what type of cross?X cross or T like cross?-.-;; heck,i'll do both.hehe.

About an hour later: Dang it.:: kicks yin yang :: It wont behave!It wont go on.:: mutters :: so i gave up. I found a brunning cross...But I had an odd feeling such would get you in trouble with some people. So,i played with the biohazard. It looked nothing like what you described,and so I have decided that perhaps i shall try my hand at doodling it out. Anyways,if you wish to see what I did...:: glances :: come...:: shivers :: up with...By all means,go ahead.

[Phil]

okay cool! I'll try to go in and make the changes and stuff.
daryn-I feel like a jerk, because it's hard expressing what you want without trying to ask the artist to change, so I'll just say it.

PS- Daryn, no offense taken

[Phil]

I was thinking of makign the circle in the background a yin-yang and then writing your name in the back with sword letters like you said. Hows them apples?

[Stayin Dizzy]

I like both those biohazard signs. the only thing i'd add to either is to make the points more jagged. Think "biohazard sign meets dragon ball Z".

[Baloki]

FAZAR!!!

[eternalshiva]

:choc: ok here's what I came up with.

^^ It's purple but not girly. and yes, that's a chinese poem in the background over the Yin Yang sign but it's fairly faint. I tried :/

It's hard to come up with a name for you when you can't decide on a sig. Biohazzard or Dragon's Breath would be neat... and it matches my theme xD

If you won't use it let me know, I'll post it in the signature thread and myabe someone else can use it.

[zacks_clone]

Very nice Baloki,Shiva. Good job you to:P

[Stayin Dizzy]

OMG!! Those are too awesome! And Baloki, I have no idea what FAZAR!! means but that would make an awesome new name

All these sigs are really good. More importantly many of you put a lot of hard work into these. But I think the sig that EternalShiva's sig is calling to me. the only things I'd change is have another shadow in front of the dragon (like the shadow of a lone warrior prepared to battle the dragon).Either that or a cross of sort (I just had a vision from the FF:CC commercial with the people holding lights in their hands...that might look cool too) Also the biohazard sign in front of the dragon was a great idea. But it's still so purple. I wonder if you could use the biohazard sign Zacks_Clone had in his sig. I think the red would "mesh" (for lack of better word) well with the purple

I'm still looking for an avatar though. somehow tied with the sig, but not just a square of the sig

[eternalshiva]

Sure I can make the changes. I can change the colour too, I'll find a crouching warrior image for the sig, I figured something was missing when I posted it and I knew you'd point it out.

I can get you a different av, I wasn't sure what you wanted but I'll leep digging around.

Fazar would be a neat name xD *goes off to image search*

EDIT: The only reason why it seems so purple-ee is because the dragon is watching the sunset and the moon is starting to rise, it's like twilight dusk but I didn't crop the image to add the sun in there ^^ I'll try to make it more *manly* with some darker shades of blue. BUT I will add one that is the same with a red BH sign, just to see okies? *and goes off*

[Kirobaito]

I wonder if you could use the biohazard sign Zacks_Clone had in his sig.

zacks_clone is a girl. :p She'll eat you for that. :beer:

[Baloki]

So you've come to stir things up and do no work, in the eternal words of a clever person:


Buzz off you dispicable laz arist!

[zacks_clone]

lol!Atleast hes checking back in to see how progress is going.

FEMALE DARYN!FEMALE!

:: stirs giant stew pot and wounders how Daryn would taste in chunky bits or if she should send his body threw a shreader :: hm...Carrots or onions?

Shiva,i still have the original image, all its layers and such for PSP all saved if you want me to send it or something,if it would be of any help.

[eternalshiva]

yeah! That would be great, you can find me on MSN or AOL *profile me* I'll leave them on so you can transfer then to me. or post them here, what ever.

I want onions and mushrooms in that pot.

[eternalshiva]

How's this?

[Kirobaito]

What's up with the whole random square motif, maw? You've been doin' that a lot. It looks like characters in a different encoding, like Arche's custom title. :p

-.-;; stole the idea from Shiva. Its just new and crisp and cool looking KB:P

Shiva,the signature looks great!

[eternalshiva]

I like the squares xD It's just a thing I'm going through, when I get bored with it, I'll change it up xD Why? You don't like the squares I put on yours?

And z_c it looks like we went to the same website to get the symbols xD heheh

And I did want to make it look like the sig couldn't support the font so I made it square like wee! Originality!

[Kirobaito]

I like it, I just noticed the slight obsession with them. :p

[eternalshiva]

xD I have tendency to obssess over things xD

[Kirobaito]

Yeah, we know that. :p

[Stayin Dizzy]

Sweetness ES. still wanna see it with the bh sign Zacks_clone had in HER sig (I hadn't read HER profile to see if SHE was a girl or guy) lol. other than that it seems ready to go. I just gotta find someone to host the sig, and see if a mod will change my name

[Kirobaito]

Well, mods don't change your names. Admins do. So don't PM a mod, or they will tell an Admin, and the Admin will ban you.

I guess <i>a while</i> is up so I'm going to unsticky this thread now. I like that sig...it's a little too dark me though. :)

Daryn, PM an Admin if you want to get a name change. Mods still can't do that job. :)
