The good news is that there are many new faces nominated for Best Graphic Designer this year compared to the End of Year
Ciddies 2005, with Rye and ff7+ff10 gurl 100 being the only two members left from 2005. Last time Rye won by a good margin (38 points – 11 points in front of second place Xander). However, everything is still open and anyone could be the winner!
Most of the graphic design from these people have been signatures/banners/wallpapers so try to ignore the tragillion amount of times I write those words.
ff7+ff10 gurl 100. A great graphic designer that has been spotted in numerous other Artist awards as well as last years Best Graphic Designer. She came in second-last that time, but she has not been discouraged and has continued working and producing fine quality graphic designs, that include many signatures. She started off by making simple signatures with one, two or more pictures aligned together (as all of us do), but has with hard work been producing top quality signatures making use of all sorts of brushes and filters and vibrant colours.
Genius Lynx's work can curiously hardly be seen in the Artist's Forum for the past three months, and I've personally never seen any of his graphic design, apart from the appropriate and very cool signatures and avatars he has equipped himself with, and lets face it, signatures and avatars play one of the biggest roles in graphic design.
Olette produces some of the best signatures, wallpapers and the works. She may not have shown THAT many, but for what she lacks in quantity she more than makes up with quality. The Backgrounds in her sigs and wallpapers are simply amazing, often having bright vibrant colours and making good use of lighting and blending. She has a great way of getting an image, and building the whole signature around it and manages to stick with and develop a very good theme.
Owen Macwere is the new boy in town and has shown great skill for how long he has been making signatures. Everyone seems to like him too, which helps
He has already produced a mass amount of signatures and seems to make a few every day. His signatures have grown very good because he has kept at it and never got tired of making them! I'm sure many people will be rooting for Owen, so good luck to him!
Rye is the winner of the Best Graphic Designer at the End of Year 2005
Ciddies by a large amount of votes, and she hasn't stopped creating work and improving since then. Her signatures are often full of vibrant colours and good ideas and are certainly a inspiration for everyone else. Rye is the master at variation and no one piece of work is like the other. Her trademark colour seems to be pink if I am correct, which stands out a lot. ^_~
Spiffing Cheese is the master of fading characters and people in her signatures to give them a more blended feel. And she often has many pictures of the same character on one signature. The last 10 or something signatures of hers were my favourite because, well, they were just awesome.
However, as far as i'm aware (and I could easily be wrong), apart from the animated gif she has now, she has NOT produced a Clark Gable signature. tz tz tz
Zeldy produces some of the best (hope you dont mind me saying this
gothic signatures around and they are often darkly coloured and themed. However, she also produces some very 'fluffy' ones with sugar coating or just normal but great looking ones, so she knows variation. She often makes signatures of her favourite band, but unfortunately I cant tell what band it is by looking at them (call me ignorant)
Her wallpapers are of the same brilliant quality!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
So who will win? To me it is still very open, even if most of the votes have been collected
Break a leg or two everyone!
