Try to improve the text as it doe not match the sig. Background is odd, doesnt really match with sonic. Thats preety much it. But you did way better than my second sig

[Shinyshoes]

Thanks for the feedback man. I made some other signatures with a tutorial and I think I got the colors down pretty well. Here are two more signatures, I used a tutorial for the 1st one then did my own+tut on the second mario. Tell me if they are improvements . - Note: The text isn't made to match, I'm just marking it as mine just like a signature on a painting :wave:

Sigs:






I like the mario one, the spider-man black one was alright, but I Could've done more

kool the last two look very nice i prefer the mario one because of the colours and brushing. remember to add lighting and blending to create depth. i.e on your spider man sig there's weird lighting go across the background which mucks up the depth. but on the mario one its better, helped because of the render but also because of the lighting youve added at the top.
also i would say work on blending your text with the signature more so it looks like it should be there. and try to blend the render with the background abit more

but they are all very good if youve only just started i hope my 3rd sig can be as good as your mario one because i think thats really kool

[Shinyshoes]

Wow, Thanks man I appreciate the comments, Yeah the spiderman ones lighting is a bit off, I couldn't decide whether to leave in the lighting or add more effects. And yes I'm going to look up a few tuts on how to effectively use text in my signatures, once I've got my skill with PS up I think I can start making sigs for people

These are damn nice man keep it up, i have to agree with carl, nice depth and the mario one has nice colors, the spiderman one is nice and id have to say these are 20X better what i could make in 2 weeks of photoshop. Keep it up .

ps: like the ripple effects on spider man, and what is that purple thing above wario ?

[Shinyshoes]

Thanks so much for those comments, It means alot to hear that. Oh, and the thing above Wario I think is part of the render, it was sort of the makers trademark thingy. I tried to burn/smudge it but I guess it still shows, I didn't think I really needed to remove it, it adds more color I thought. Sadly I'm away from my comp and can't make another sig until late tommorow, I started a Hellboy one right before I left, I will post maybe 1-2 new ones by Sunday night . :wave:

[Shinyshoes]

My newest addition to my signatures, got back from a trip and made this one. I tried desperately to make the text look nicer, hope it worked. I like this one but I'm not sure about it's final outcome. I need your opinions!



EDIT: Eh.. I really don't like it now that I uploaded it, the CD4 I used showed up way to much since the quality of the pic (JPEG) went down, oh well! I'm trying new things, so bear with me.

Love the Mario one

[Shinyshoes]

Thanks, (If someone wants a specific sig, just for them just post a reply with render (no backrounds please i.e. "Mario" just mario no black background behind render.) specs, and text. I'll try to make one in my spare time.

[Shinyshoes]

This is my FIRST animation . I made it from maricks tutorial and added a animated pic. Tell me what you guys think. It only loops once cause I accidentally saved it that way but oh well!

You need to take your signatures a step further. You just find a gaming pic, cut it out and add it to a colorful background and write some simple text.

Try getting an edge for your pictures, and try working on the text more, it looks very boring. Good for just starting with PS though.
