Critique this sig in progress.

First new buisness. Is it too pink?

The render in this one was not cut as well(grabbed from render world) and I would like. They left it with alot of feathering so I would have to redo the cut in order to get a border that looked right with the image edges. So I said forget the border. Also thought of cutting out the tail on the cat costume.... feathering really messed with it.

Got a suggestion to darkify the left render.

And more touch up

And then old buisness. Miss Pillage and burn with black border.

I actually had been in a toss up between black and red when I did the first border. Went with red since that was what my foreground was already set to. Lazyness decided that one.

[ShunNakamura]

Alright new one. This one is textless for lack of any ideas to put on it.

[Torak]

New black border one is definatley better.

As for the pink one. The 3rd version is obviously the best, and no it's not too pink. Pink is one of few colours that you can use alot of.

As for this symetrical one. It's ok, thought I aint a big fan of symetrical ones.

[ShunNakamura]

This one did not come out the way I invisioned it. Text color is off I think(but I was having issues finding one that was both readable AND good looking with the sig). Plus the images I think are subtracting more from it then they are giving to it.

So if anyone has pic suggestions for this go ahead. More of a concept piece right now than anything.

What I will be doing sometime[likely tonight after I rest a bit]:

-Testing different types of grays to see if I can get a decent font color.
-Shift the e-mail image to gray base to match it with the Vi image and the text.

A fall banner that I am making to someone else's specifications. I am not much liking it.

I hate working with such large banners. It still feels too empty.

I am thinking of putting some leaves falling in the foreground. And maybe a Pumpkin or Jack-O-Latern in the middle. I also need a border yet.

[ShunNakamura]

Made my first animated sig.... critique as you will.

hmmm... this thread is starting to feel clogged up. Maybe I should go try and trim it back a bit sometime.

[ShunNakamura]

Alright need to learn how do a vector sig. Bad part is from the tuts I have seen I really won't like the style. Here was shot number one at incorporating vector into a sig(I doubt it qualifies as a full blown vector).

Not great, but playing with a new style can be tricky.

Edit-- Got another that I hope qualifies as vector.

[ShunNakamura]

Got a couple new ones.

Didn't much like how this one came out. The edges are ROUGH.... I don't believe it I thought I fixed up that ugly tendacy long ago. My skills feel really rough as I worked with this one.

[Owen Macwere]

Sorry mate, I wasn't around much lately. These sigs are great, I love this one of the love theme, and the mail one was really cooly.
Good to see you again, mate!.

[ShunNakamura]

I gave up playing with the dream photograph one. Haven't come up with a good way to give it that picture frame border.

I did come up with a new one though.

Tried something different. I placed/used/whatever the render in a way that isn't my usual(I tend to prefer to show the render in the majority of its entirety, here I cut off quite a bit of it).

@Owen

Good to see you again as well, you vanished on us for a while there .

[Owen Macwere]

Nice colours, but the text is kind of boring!. Nice border BTW.

Note: I can't cope on making my posts as long as yours.

[ShunNakamura]

Here is a vertical sig I did on another forum(since some forums don't set a height limit that is too restricting.

This was mainly a photo-manipulation exercise. I did all right I think(and as a note the bear's expresion is supposed to be comedic(or laughable)).

[Owen Macwere]

Lol, it is funny. What days when the bears get scared of cats!!. Nice work, cool border and colours and blending.

[ShunNakamura]

Actually I based that one off of a news story I read in the National Geographic about a cat that chased a bear up a tree TWICE. I felt I just had to do something about that(that photo that is the majority of the sig is the one that accompanied the article).

Anyways, since I can't read my computer monitor anymore all that well(dog ate my glasses ) I was bored and decided that I could at least through general graphics together(I can still see colors just words get blurry). Though even doing this is causing me an eyestrain headache.

Edit- pointed out to me that it looked vertically compressed(the render). So I stretched the sig vertically by just a tad. Dunno if it helped or hurt it though.

It's a nice sig...But what's the text in the lower right of the sig?Is this Gimp?If it is...this is great ones...Well I think either Kinimaka Sakura or Card Captor Sakura would be nice...just opinion..
