Comments are welcome. :3
Very good Raebus. I specially like the Ifrit, the pink and the last blue one. Very creative style. Nice work!
Thanks. :3
The next sig might take a while, the idea blocker strikes again.
No prob :D
Its the other way round with me. I watch a film or an anime, listen to music or read a book and Im making a sig on the subject. Its a pain cause they are usually nothing to go crazy over. Just an image, some brushes and the odd piece of text.
But your style is decent and unique, so I can understand if you hit like an artists brick wall :D Im sure the next one will be great :D
gj. I liked the first, the Ifrite and the last one. they are all cool man. keep coing.
they're all good, i started making one in my sister's house yesterday, coz all my computer's good for is the internet, but i didn't get it finished, but when i do i'll post it somewhere to show it to you all, it's not that good though.it's my first try
oh my god you have a hard gay sig i love you
Edit: It makes me want to use my Hard Gay sig again. But I just put up Slick. :{
Much <3 to the hard gay fan.
Thanks for all your comments. :)
AHEM, sorry for double posting but it can't be helped. A new sig!
http://img527.imageshack.us/img527/3907/skull8da.jpg
nice sig with just three colours , and good use of texters ^_~.
good work.
Nice sig, Raebus! As usual, it's artistic! I like the use of colours and textures, the placing is good and everything works well! ^_^ I can just see the border there too! :p Very well done.
The one you're using currently is my favourite, aside from the hard gay one. So many sigs these days are cluttered up with everything, or have the same old grunge brush carp, it's pants. Yours is nice and simple and clean, and it looks hawt.
Hmm, what does this mean:confused: ?Quote:

MORE TO COME.
What does WHAT mean?
Lookin' forward to it. I demand more Hard Gay action.
http://img92.imageshack.us/img92/217...ahacopy2zj.jpg
Sorry kyono, I'll do a hardgay sig next. :3
I don't like it much, but good whatsover.
keep up the good work, Raebus ^_~.
Its different from your others. Nice choice of colours, but its not my fav.
Hey what do I know :D
I didnt expect it to be everyones fave, I was just having fun making it really. :3
Ignoring the very dodgy pun, this sig is nice. Colours work well and it all blends together well. The brushing is nice. Text is nice. I feel the girl could have been blended a bit better, especially on the right side. I agree you can do better. ;P
Every sig I make doesent have to be better than the last or be just as good, sometimes I just want to have fun with a sig. Thanks for your comments though. :)
that's the point, just have fun. I had fun with that horrible Italy one *_*.
keep up, I will always support you raebus ^_~.
Probably my worst sig yet but discuss.
http://img141.imageshack.us/img141/7615/riku11wt.jpg
I guess, we are all losing our touch ^^.
but no, this one is so good, I love it Raebus, nice for it being balck and white, but just a suggestion, lower your font.
nice sig, and good brushs.
PS: what is you PS version? and if PS7, from where do you get your brushs? ^^.
Hmm, it's Adobe Photoshop CS2? :3
As for the brushes, either from Aethereality (the brush I used was one i got from her at the start) or...deviant art, I THINK. Oh and thanks. :)
I also like this sig. I think it looks nice black and white and I feel the text works. Brushing is really nice and having one side dark and one side light works well with Riku.
I like it, its dark, eerie, the text is gorgeous and the cut of Riku is excellent. Its a nice size and I see nothing wrong with it :D
Thanks Yuna/sapphire. :heart:
I'm not coming up with enough whilst everyone else churns them out. :3
Stick some music on your PC and just sit at Photoshop. Trust me something will pop up. Ive been listening to Muse's new album alot and Im churning stuff out to the beat :D
i like the ifirit one!! it's cool with the fire blast:D
Thanks! :)
http://img331.imageshack.us/img331/808/first14vs.gif
My first transparent sig, what'cha think?
Thats your first go? Its beautiful, some little white, but who cares for a first attempt. It happens all the time. The background is lush and goes well with your image.
Good job :D
Hmm, the white? I think it's the border :3 BUT thanks. :)!
First try?0_0. it is great, yes that is your border, I see it now that you pointed to it ^^. but it is so great, good work.
Thanks, it's actually pretty easy. :3
Yes, it is easy. I like transperancy.
again good work Raebus, it is amazing.
your sigs are cool
For your last signature, the edges seem very jagged and blocky for the hair and the left wisp on the feather. The jaggedness can not really be avoided if you choose to use .gif format, but you can certainly go over the image again and help it not look so blocky so when you apply a border, it is not so obtrusive.
Try .png next time; it will allow not only for transparency, but several opacities as well. It does mean a larger filesize, however.
Thanks for the tip, Majesty. :3
Png doesn't keep transprancy, i tried it. but there's a way to make the edges somoother, layer>merge visible. that helps a little with gif.
good luck raebus ^_~.
http://img90.imageshack.us/img90/9173/untitled1bf3.gif
Now it's annoying >_<
Edit: Owen, theres only one layer sooo I suppose I can't merge?
Actually it depends on the png and the program.Quote:

Anyways for png's I believe the color Palette has to be 256 in order for IE to display the transparency. However, I may be wrong, I only did some quick google searches. But PNG DOES support transparancy. However, some browsers DON'T fully support PNG.
That would be correct unless Owen is refering to flatten image. I doubt it though cause that always kills my transparancy.Quote:

wow, just look at your background it is great.
lt me guess, you make the sig then you delete around it right, that is why there is these white spiks around it.
I use different way so i get clearer edges.
look, make your background in a small canvas then copy it and paste it into an already transperant canvas. that helps better.
Thanks and here it is saved as png 24 (plus, i'm using firefox...sooo it should be better to me *hopes*)
Edit: Nvm -_-
Lol, Raebus, don't worry they are just your first tries, you will get there in the end, who made these awesome sigs can't do stupid transperancy, you will make it, just wait. I know you can.
Your right, thanks again. ^_^
There is supposed to be a way to force IE to read png's(that is done through html so you know your viewers see it). However, I gave it a quick go and it doesn't seem to work on these forums. Though I could have put it in wrong.
Anyways it is a neat sig and would be really cool if you could get your gif to look smoother(it is possible just takes work).
http://img157.imageshack.us/img157/8708/blahfu5.gif
Latest effort.
NIceeeeeeeeee. I love it, it is so beautiful. though you still need to work on the edges. but very nice sig.
http://img184.imageshack.us/img184/4...oo1copyvh7.jpg
Comments are welcomed with open arms. :3
Now, this background is just so nice... it is so calm and fantasy looking. great job Raebus.
Thanks.
I work WAY better with non transparent sigs, definetly. :3
Nice colouring, has a calm feeling to it, serene and, as Owen Macwere said, fantasy looking. You used the brushes very well and the lighting is very nice. ^_^
Your current sig still comes up top though. ;)
Well, don't give up on transperancy either, just work a little harder with it and you will get there. ^_~.
again this background is awesome.
http://img99.imageshack.us/img99/5751/tryws1.gif
Discuss. :3
Aweeeeeeeee, it looks very nice.. awesome ideas you get there. but it would have looked alot better if it was transperance. anyway, excelent shape.
Well, I saved it as gif sooo it should have come out as transparent? I think the whiteness adds something anyway. Thanks aswell.
Nice sig!! The colours work well and the placing was obviously well thought out. It's ALMOST there with your current sig, I'd say. Brushing all works well and the transparency is awesome! ^_^
What the hell do you mean by Better? it is awesome, very clean edges, and as I told you before i love the style.:love:Quote:

A slighly spaced out version, someone said it might look better this way. Thanks again. :3
hmm... that is a tough call.
But I think I will agree that it is somewhat better spaced out. Or at least it appeals more to me.
Oh, yes giving more spaces between the lines gave it a boost. good work :).
I love this new style :love:
Thanks again, your all so kind. :3
Don't say i am kind, people will think i am lying about my opinion about your sigs.
I am just saying the truth, your new sig is awesome.
thanks though :)

It is transparent, saved as atleast. I THINK it has something to do with eoff sucking in the avvie department, the background might always be there even with transparency or i'm sooooo wrong. Nvm
Well, it is transperant in FFI, why isn't it here??? I wonder.
It's got something to do with eoff then. :)
Yes, I think. well, the avy is just as awesome as the sig, nice work. :D
It deserves 100 by 100, DESERVES. Most avvies get squashed/lose there beauty with 60 by 60.
True, the 60 x 60 size(smallest of all the forums I visit) here as always left me bewhildered particually since your sigs can be 550w x 250h, which is bigger then just about every forum I visit. Heh.Quote:

Anyways sweet avatar :D
http://img45.imageshack.us/img45/856...ithtextxy2.gif
I got carried away. :3
Hmmm... I guess. :D
but this sig is just as great as the previouse. good work, this was what I used to do when I first started to make transperncy sigs. you will make awesomer soon. ;)
Your avatar, Raebus, is a .jpg. You probably screwed up when trying to save it as a .gif, because your filename reads: avatar21230_6.gif.jpg
No, it just read .gif, I checked it out also he/she is using it in another forum and it is transperant there.
Now THIS is wierd. I saved it without a problem as GIF.
Owen, unless you know what you are talking about, please do not say anything. If anyone were to right-click right now on Raebus's avatar and save the image, the filename would end in .jpg. It is a .jpg. This cannot be argued.
Raebus, there are two fixes for this:
The first is the hard way, which would be to reopen your avatar's file, rasterize the layer, select the entire background and delete it, and then go back over your image, re-doing the color palette because of artifacts and color bleeding. Then, instead of saving, make sure that you select "Save As..." and make sure that the second box "Save as type" has .gif highlighted. Give it whatever filename you want and you are gold.
The second is a bit easier if you can do it. If you have kept a previous .psd or .pspimage file of your work (I recommend that you start doing so if you do not!), simply reopen that file and if there is no editing that you need to do, save that as a .gif.
Always try to remember that throwing on ".gif" at the end of a file that you are saving does not guarantee that you are saving it as a .gif; that second box in the Save dialouge box does.
An attachment too, for a visual aid as to what I am talking about.
Well I dunno about the save option(mine is doing the dumb double file extension save as well[.gif.png when the link clearly show's it saved as a .gif]). However, the properties, the image link, the view image command all show his avvy as a .gif. In addition unless he is using some real funky program .jpg's tend to have white bg's and not grey.
Reabus, try uploading your avatar to imageshack as a gif and link from it there. I think this forum does something funky when you save the avatar directly to it(from how my avie is a .gif.png when I KNOW I saved it as a png-24 as usual). And I see alot of people who have the double extension on this forum... and I doubt that every single one of us doesn't know how to save properly.
Your avatar is a .png. No amount of extra extensions tacked on before the real extension is going to change that. The same follows for Raebus's. Fro example, 09528-40528.gif.jpg.exe.txt.png is still a .png and 09528-40528.png.jpg.exe.txt.gif is still a .gif, regardless of what comes before them. The problem may arise from the fact that you both probably have Windows to hide extensions of known file types.
I disagree with you; I feel that many here do not know the least bit about saving image files properly, "signature artists" not excluded.
You don't have to explain that double file extension to me. I am not an idiot, only been studying computers since I was in 7th'ish grade afterall. What I am saying is that THE PROPERTIES SHOWS IT CLEARLY AS A .GIF. That is where everyone is getting the .gif from. It says one thing in the properties(and when you view the image) and another when you download. That is the wacky thing that I think the forum is doing to it. It does it to my png as well(in addition to tacking on an extra .gif before the .png), and I have seen several avatars on these forums having the same issue(I went through and checked).
I have windows displaying everything. Anyone worth their salt would, if they had the power, on thier admin account and/or the account they use. Displaying system files is also not a bad idea if you know what your doing. Also the registry can be quite fun at times as well depending on what you need done.
Anyways it isn't a .png if you look at properties of it. Then it is a gif. this is what I was refering to. I want to know what the in the galaxy this .gif crap is doing in my avatar(as well as what the heck the forums is doing to it to cause it(this DOES not happen every forum I am on[and I use the same avvie and file for each of them], it is something this forum is goofing up). Part of the reason being anyone taking a curasory look will see that it is a .gif. However, it is really a .png. I want to know why it is doing this.
As for you last statement. I know I for one DO know how to save files properly, I am majoring in computers and do quite well with them afterall.
Also as for you filename extension.... you are and aren't right. It isn't always the last extension that is the real one. That is just the one that tells windows/the program what to use to try and read it. so if you make your .wpl playlist a .wpl.m3u playlist by tacking on the filename it is not an m3u but rather a wpl that now won't read because the programs will be using the wrong tools to try and read it.
so in this example you gave 09528-40528.gif.jpg.exe.txt.png it could actually be any of the extensions in the list(or one not in it if people are really screwing things up), not neccisarily just a png. Such as this file tidussig.gif.png.jpg the last extension reads as .jpg. However it is in reality a .gif, and is actually read as such in my web browser(in other words the transpancy and other stuff still work).
Hey, come on. you are ruining this thread.
go on raebus, make more great sigs. I can't wait to see what you got to show us next. :D
PS: her majesty, don't talk to us as though we are idiots, please.
MY lovely thread, being ruined. :(
Edit: I'll wip something up later.
Sorry:cry:Quote:

I like that. It's simple but pretty. :)
Thank you Raebus for my sig, it is awesome... thanks...
Thanks so much. ^____^
Nice :) I like the whole design of it, and its size. Only thing I can see that you may be able to fix is that the boxes on the left don't line up with each other. No big deal, just thought to bring it up. Its very very awesome though!
Wow, Raebus. I love the colours and background. I like how you mixed the colours, you have done a great job there. it is awesome :)
Thanks. :3
Not at all, and well this sig desirve the best comments, it is awesome... :D

Wow, it is such a new style. I like everything, your colours are great.
nice drawing... :D
Thanks Owen, I was just messing about really but it turned out good. :3
Yes, it turned out very good... keep working, I love your sigs Raebus. :)
People post in here too rarely. :(
Don't worry, Raebus. your sigs rock, many people will come here soon, I am sure. ;)
just keep working.

Wow, you have great style in sigs!! I love them!! I especially love the one you are using now :love:
Thanks. :3
Hey Raebus stop using this smily, :3.
cheer up your sigs are great buddy. ;)
Great sigs, dude. Simplistic but nice. Keep them coming!
Heres me when I'm not really trying but having LOTS of fun:

Hey. Well done, I like all of your sigs! I agree with everyone else, you do really well on them. Your newest ones are really cute! Good luck in any upcoming sigs you may be making and thanks for commenting on mine.
:laugh: :laugh: :laugh: I love it!! It made me lol :D
Thats all that matters ^__________^
Thanks for your comments.
Lol, Raebus. this is so cool... and so much fun. you are great at these stuff...
No - Posted by a random pussy.
The sig description for those who won't be able to see it again, it depicts someone killing another person with a single punch and someone else cutting there wrist with two smurfs and a something racist people call black people.
I'm not even sure if it'll be allowed to stay up, i've got a sneaking suspicion someones going to take it down and in doing so, destroy the last badassness of the world. Here anyway.
ROFL WTF
Lol, thsi one is really really cool, Raebus. I love it. :3 Lol
Thanks. :3
Owen: I'll post in yours later.
Great work again, this one also made me lol :D ^.^
Well done on another great sig!
Haha, it's amusing. One little smurf and nigger and it gets removed, as if eoff is trying to protect people of eoff from something they WILL hear in real life. As for the images, cartoon violence. Pussys.
That attitude won't get you very far, Raebus. This is a private site and we're well within our rights to choose what we do and do not allow. I don't want to see any more signatures like posted up. Consider yourself warned.
My bad...
Hey raebus, there's no need to close this, you can just start all over again.
don't repeat my mistake.
When creativity gets destroyed by rules, thats when I pretty much lose hope on continueing to make sigs here.
You are not leaving, are you?. come on just calm down, everything is gonna be alright.
I love this! Well done Raebus!
YES, Raebus is back. (start a firework).
good job on that one, it is great, keep up, and never give up, buddy. ;)
I imagine it did.... nice job *thumbs up*Quote:

That Vincent one is so cool!! I like how you completley changed the colour of it^^ Its simple but really cool, well done :D
I love it Raebus! :love: That text in the corner finishes it off, well done. Looking forward to your next one.
Yup, really like the colours and everything, you are walking back to your old style which I love so much, I like to see more soon. :)
The Revived one is beautiful Reabus, nice one :D
Yeh you've got a really unauthordox style (Cant be spelt right).
http://img321.imageshack.us/img321/5192/mehcopyks4.jpg
My only problem with this one is that it's just a render with a border.
Like RIMM said. The Vincent one has a very, unvincent like colour. Yet is very efefctive. That's good. I also like how its a reallly long shot of him. Like you've squeezed a huge picture into a small sig size. That takes talent.
Thorn, I spent my time looking for that spot, getting up in the morning to take a picture of it and scanning it onto the pc. THEN it was edited and used in that sig. Even if I didnt spend time doing it on the pc from scratch, the added time of actually spending most of the day taking it (with the walk) makes up for it. Then, you add the time took drawing the figure.
My defense is that there is no way I could've known that. And that you probally should've said this earlier or else you'll get people like me coming along saying what I said.
Sorry. :3

I tried to add animation, my first attempt anyway. It's probably [img]/xxx.gif[/img][img]/xxx.gif[/img][img]/xxx.gif[/img][img]/xxx.gif[/img]. :3
Thats really cool! I wish I could do that, though I don't have the slightest clue how you animate XP Anyway great work and can't wait for more from you.
No, I think it is cool, but if you have made the head of the shootingstar yellow and the edges red, it would have looked more realistic.
I like it though..
I wasnt going for realism, it just looked pretty like that. Thanks for the comments.
That looks like a pritrate, but I don't understand its meaning. hmmm... nice wierd work raebus.
It has no meaning. :3
:Oo: you mean it is random??!!!.
It came to Raebus in a dream :D Excellent work mate and I think it looks great with no text!

So yeah, comment away.
Hey!! That's cool!. I like the colour alot and wow, it is very neat, and the text is matching.
Keep it up Raebus, mate. :)
Thanks owen. I'm actually pretty proud of it, considering I didnt use any filters or brushes, just the bare basics. Oh and these were a must, he was very picky. :3
I am proud of it too, as it is my friends work. I am looking forward for more, oh, gosh. I am so greedy. :D
Hey, this is a cool siggy. I love the text, and the image is pretty.
Good work Raebus. :D
Yay! You put them both on here! I love them both! So pretty, great work and looking forward to more.
These are cool raebus, I like them. ^^ Keep them coming dude.
They're really cool! I love them! Keep up the great work, looking forward to your next work.

Yes, look at the wonderful sig Raebus made for yours truly :D
Oi, Raebus, what movie is your personal sig from? It looks cheesy, Japanese, and altogether B, and I wanna see it.
Oh wow! I like like that one you made for Saph! :)
ooooh I like all the colours in it :D Thats a funky sig! :bigsmile:
Ryu - It's from zebraman. :3
Thanks for your all comments. ^__^
Thats really cool :p I love how theres like two sides to it and then the word 'Split' in the corner :bigsmile: Very nice. :up:
I love the images and the text used.
Just one word "Split", perfect! Sums up the whole signature.
Cooly. ^^
I like how it have two sides of good and evil.
That's nice, Raebus. I like the BG and text. good job, Mate!. =)
That's so cool. :bigsmile:
I love it. ^.^
