Whats the difference between Fill and Opacity?

Also, i always used that gradient the other way around

[Krip]

I believe 'shining' the signature does not look very good, and can be overused very easily as I see you do Venomous. The 'shine' can be very nice if used at the right time... but overusing it can ruin the signature.
I already knew how this works... it's better just to shine up the signature and then magic select the text and delete all of the shine everywhere else so then just the text shines.
Also, the shine in the tutorial was not needed as it got in the way.

- Careful shining everyone!

I need to showoff my new sig

No Shine

Shine:


I think it looks quite nice with Venomous sigs, i just think you should lower the Opacity about 10%,

I like the Shine on your tut xP

Where did you get that Vista frame from?

Nice tut Vem, I didn't know how to do this yet... *sits and plays in photoshop with shine*

Narudan awesome sig!!!. the vista thing i tried to do all by myself i couldn't get the buttons at the top right good but i tried (Dam you windows and their good dam graphics).

Krip we all have different styles which we prefer to in photoshop i prefer shines on my sigs it's different. i do "overuse" them but thats because i think it looks better that way it makes it look real. i do it to my liking on my sigs. The shine over the TuT was to get that "vista" theme in there even though vista doesn't do that i tried to make it shiny like vista anyway. Piers prefers to sharpen his sigs which looks pretty dam awesome. But i don't think shines ruin sigs that much, it's to give a realistic touch to the sig.

Good tut, toobad the shine often destroy the sig. Best to only use it at banners imo. :P

Yeah.

By the way... your signature is sick. Is that a stock or what? How'd you do that? That style is nasty.
