lol Wow I never really noticed it but you made a lot of graphics eh Mishy?

 

Yeah, I have. The first 4 were done using PaintShop Pro that a friend let me use. The rest were all used in GIMP. I'm kind of happy by how much I've progressed though.

 

Yeah I can really see the differences and progression. Great job!

 

Your the only that seems to think so.

 

its nice to see that SOTW is helping you to deviate from the bulk of RO sigs lol.

 

I would think that's my main reason for having a slump.

I kind of got tired of making a RO signature like every few days/weeks.

I might even take said SOTW renders and make new signatures for them trying different methods.

 

No I swear a lot of people commented in the Signature thread saying how much you're improving.. Am I right?

 

I guess. I think I paid more attention to the harsh criticism majority of the time. Plus, I was really shy in the beginning. Now, I don't mind so much.

 

Well the only reason you paid attention to the harsh criticism most of the time was to get better, and you did right?

 

Wow! You can see how much you have improved!
Overrall very nice work

 

Yeah, I do appreciate it though. Without it, I think I would have been stuck doing terrible signatures.

Thank you CJ. I didn't think I could get better in the amount of time I have.

 

It's not about time, it's about skill and effort.
That's why you do well, BTW when did you start?

 

Not long after I joined...In September last year.

 

Well thats not bad, considering how good those graphics look compared to my crappy ones I only made like 5 or 6 sigs and 4 were from MS Paint... lol
The other 2 were from GIMP but they weren't that great... I just like other people making sigs for me because they look way better than what I can do... I can ask you to make me one sometime lol

 

Hey cool, I started in November I think... (i'll dig around my PB account) You improve fast , you surpassed me in like 2 months

 

I won't have a problem with that, just shoot me a PM and the render you want used.

Well, everyone learns at their own pace. I'm still trying to find more GIMP tutorials though. Quite hard I might add.

 

Tutorials? People actually use them? I felt like a noob reading what layers are so I stopped

I might read a few if people that are talented use them because that's not noobish...

 

I don't find anything noobish when you want to learn something. I wouldn't have got better at using GIMP if I didn't take the time to:

-Play around with the program
-Watch YouTube videos demonstrating techniques.
-Reading tutorials with visuals to help me learn about the technique being used.

Like they say, "Knowledge is Power". And I apply that to every signature now-a-days.

 

Hmm, well I'll look around if I can make sigs as good as you by using tutorials ^_^

Though I get a strange feeling of satisfaction doing things without any sort of explanation or help...
