i think people will agree that to make a signature properly complete u need to add the finishing touches that gives it the X factor,it takes a lot of time to make it on paint shop pro, and i needed my friends help when i was making it listening to there instructions online, does anyone agree or like to show some signatures that they made or made with there friends help?! :)

There are some great signatures at EoFF - some real works of art, with a lot of artistic skill and time involved.

Then there are those who take the simplistic approach - PeeGee's cow collection, for instance, or my basic sig. Originally, I just had the text and hyperlinks; the photo is a recent addition. It's cheap, but effective enough.:)

I actually prefer making avatars, but PG has only had....I think one avatar since I joined: the pikachu slapping pikachu gif. I don't have it any more, but here are some of my other sigs...lol

I can't make sigs look all nice so I usually get someone else to do it.

I don't want to show my signatures that I've made. I'm too lazy.

But, uh, I just take pictures and do bunch of weird stuff to them. Like, make them blurry and stuff, then they magically become my signature.

yayyyyyy.

My sig is the best. It features anime and Legos. eternalshiva made it from a crazy picture I found. It's the best.

I don't think I've had an original signature picture made by me that was more than just a picture with my user name on it. I had one other one that Psy made (viva la Trio Of Insanity :)), but otherwise it's been just text, or linked text, or linked text plus crazy image. :D

In my opinion, shrinking it ruins it, but that's just me. It's like manga writers who don't like their art flopped.

I have a thread similar to this on in Art and Writing but I suppose I'll post them again. :)

I've had two signatures. Both were text only (and one of them for a while linked to my short-lived, now defunct LJ).

I realized I'm too picky/lazy for a picture signature, so I'll stick with crappy lyrics and links. :love:

I like making sigs ^_^ It's my sig day tomorrow. If you want one, just PM me. Or request in the signature thread. :P

lol Fire of Avalon, I liked making yours, Cowboy Beebop in Legos rules.

All I do is find a picture on the internet, then hack and paste a little bit with MS Paint. Voila, signature!

I had one other one that Psy made (viva la Trio Of Insanity :))
Also don't forget the one with penguins on a Danish flag.

I've only ever used 3 sigs that weren't my own, as far as I can remember. One was the BAoTW logo (eternalshiva), one was an oval one with a walrus (Rye) and one was...well....GEE I DUNNO :rolleyes2

I hate making sigs. Or I did, until I got Photoshop. But this is my bestest sig ever and I made it not in Photoshop so whee :D

Slick, no? But I have a nice series of sigs coming up, so look out for 'em. Or maybe I'll bring that one back!

EDIT: Plus I've made sigs for Rye and Triple T! I make sigs on demand. In exchange for lurve :)

oh crap I forgot ^_^

I've had so many sigs that they all blend together, and I'll forget some.

And I still give you much lurve. :p

In my opinion, some of the simplest sigs look the best. As long as they have a good quality image with a nice font, that's all you need for a nice looking signature.

Images take effort, I have better things to do with my life, text has a more understated style anyway.

Urgh, scanlines. *shot to the heart*

I made my signatuire in five minutes in MSPaint. And I've won two 'Best Signature' awards. I so rule.

I tried about a billion different signatures before I found one that I could stick with. This one I'm never planning on changing. It's the album cover to Toby Keith's "Unleashed," with my name where Toby Keith's was. It was actually pretty hard switching the names.

I'm very selective with the sigs I make. It's hard for me, still. I don't get how to use a lot of the features on PSP.

These have all been signatures of mine at one time or another. I've had others, but I can't remember them all.
