    pretty interesting but im not sure where the pieces are breaking off from, seems to be too random

    it is random. I wanted to get the fragment explosion effect .-.

    The fragment dispersion could use a bit more work... My suprematist intuition tells me something is off.

    While we're at it, how about my current signature? It's been a while since I've done anything, so I'm wondering where I should start polishing up.

    I don't know if you should polish up or just give up

    I give up then XD

    But you think there's a spot I've got to work on? Like, next time should I add a specific effect or something?

    For selfish reasons I will refrain from making a joke about phallic symbols.

    The Gaara signature could use a border... Plus there's a lot of negative space around it.

    Re: The Signature Thread

    I don't like all the dots that are overlaying the sig, and i cant figure out the focus of the sig.

    We supposed to focus on the weapon? If so then its just wayyyy too bright and i cant notice any details on it.

    I greatly dislike the background

    Did you do the outer glow on Tidus? Some spots in the outer glow look neat(his right elbow), others looks just stretched out and ugly(his right shoulder).

    Make a new sig, i hate your current one a great deal

    ...Damn. That's the best and most specific constructive criticism I've ever had. Thanks, I'll be sure to focus on the points you mentioned later on.

    Hopefully this is more to your liking XD

    Yes. I was too lazy to do anything else. That and for some reason the PCs lagging like hell so I can't really do anything but use MS Paint or MS Word.

    Re: The Signature Thread

    The first is nice I think.

    The second one is nice too, especially for a first sprite sig.

    Uhm I'm not good at criticism and advice unless I don't really like the stuff so...

    Oh but there is something that bugs me about your first sig, unless someone asks me too I never usually put borders on my stuff. It usually just bothers me. I do admit that sometimes certain stuff looks better with borders, but I dunno it sort of bothers me in your Zexion one. Oh and I just noticed your second one has a border too, I think that would look nice without one too. But that's just my opinion.

    I'm not really that great at making siggies per se, I take what criticism and advice I can and go from there. So at least I know I'm much better then before. For the most part I rarely make them, but here's something recent I made for a contest on another board. The contest is a 'tube contest' which if you don't know, renders, used to be called tubes. So the contest creator would pick out a tube, to make a graphic(Sig/Banner, Icon or anything else we could think of)then the members of the board would vote on whichever one they think is best. For the most part I do icons, but very rarely for the tube contest, I will do banners.

    So here's mine, tell me what you think okay?

    I apologize for the corny-ness. I just happened to be listening to a very mushy song at the time so...Yeah.

    Re: The Signature Thread

    Anyone like my signature? I partly made it, basically I made a signature (which looked like crap) and showed it to a friend. He asked to fix it up a bit and he did. He made it very sexy. :p I've made like 5 signatures in my life that I was satisfied with. I'm more of a photo manipulation guy, I like to use Photoshop with real images and what not.

    Re: The Signature Thread

    Which parts did you make?

    I like yours, it's very pretty. The colors are gorgeous and the text isn't annoying out in your face. So it's nice.

    Hm...I'll say what I liked about Rock91's, since I couldn't find anything wrong with it.
    I like how the first one was simple, I mean I'm not saying it doesn't look nice. Because it does, I like how there's a lighting effect around his hand and book. It's a nice touch. And your second was is simple and I find it adorable, though I'm sure you weren't going for adorable.
