My first attempt at sigs

**starseeker** · 09-02-2006, 03:11 PM

These are my first attempts at using GIMP to make sigs. Any advice on how to improve would be most appreciated.

wow, very good

They're actually very good. You could possibly make them a little smaller, but thats up to you. A border would be nice too. You have potential, just keep practicing.

I love the brushes used on the Ryoko one

I haven't worked out how to add borders yet.

I found them on deviantArt.

Yeah, deviantArt is where I get mine. I love the brushes there. Keep working at them, you definately have talent.

I say the text is a little too hard to read colourwise on the Washuu one

**starseeker** · 09-02-2006, 07:10 PM

I just made this. I was too lazy to figure out borders.

Very nice. You know the Overlay tool? I always use that to make my sigs very photoshopy.

I haven't found that yet, how do I use it?

2 more I made because I was bored.

Starseeker, If your using Photo shop, go around the entire sig with the rectangle tool and right click, then go on stroke. As for overlay, it should be in the blending options.

I'm using GIMP

**Raebus** · 09-02-2006, 10:12 PM

Ah, my bad. Oh and nice sigs btw.

Edit: Try looking for a few tutorials on borders/overlay.

**starseeker** · 09-02-2006, 10:26 PM

Thanks, I'm currently working out what all the buttons do. I haven't even touched the filters yet.

**Owen Macwere** · 09-03-2006, 08:24 PM

These are cool, and you say, you hadn't figure out everything about Gimp?. You'd soon, jut play around, and try to find some tuts.
I like them alot, just the size bit too big, go on making them, I will look forward for more.

And I like your thread's name. It reminds me of my old sigs thread. *drifts daydreaming*
