So there you go. A list of sigs from the first to the last. I ripped stock images. I ripped sigs, i ripped all kinds and it got me no where until i found tutorials. Throughout time, i have found more and more tutorials and used them to my advantage to become a better photoshopper.

Hopefully when someone reads this and is as stupid as i was back then (ripping stocks etc.). They should see the light and that they need to find tutorials; otherwise they will go no where with GFX.

Thanks for reading,

Amazing work Minority. they all look stunning.

 

To mono-toned on a lot of them. And so small

 

I loved #41. Nice work!

 

I do not understand on how they can be 'too small'
They are all standard sizes: 300x110 or around the 3X0/1X0 margins. Professional / Advanced GFX artists have always told me to stay within these ranges and not to go beyond unless you're doing a popout signature.

Edit: Fixed images

 

Great Work! Just Some Ideas.

Hey There,

Hey man i love your work, ive been using photoshop for
about 5-6 years now and i've just started work on signatures so i'm a bit scratchy but it comes easily because im used to the program. It seems that you've nailed the whole essence of using fractrals and C4D's to layer your backgrounds and match the colours, but I think your work would be greatly improved if you did some work on custom text effects. These text effects greatly improve how your signature comes together and I would HIGHLY recommend that you take a few of these tutorials and start incorporating them into your signatures. I like your most recent work and I hope that you continue to improve.

Thanks,
Mesmar.

hey mesmar i've seen some of your sigs they look great and you too minority = )

can one of you 2 make me a sig i posted on the request but never got one made = (

 

No worries man, i've just been taking a break so I thought someone else would get onto it, but i guess not. I'll start on one now.

 

I like your 'recommendation' but as taught via. Tutorials and other various photoshoppers; The more basic your text is, the better it will be.

For some time i have used special effect text and seen other people use it. Special effect text can only be used if it matched the background and in many cases will not work on pretty much 85% of the sigs ive done.
Thanks for your offer though.

 

You ever think about making sigs for people?

 

I have made sigs for other people and will continue to make sigs for over people if they give requests within reasonable sizes.

For now, i dont touch any request that goes beyond: 340x140 (WxH)

For example, your request is:

So therefor im not even going to touch yours or download any images you requested.
700px width wise is almost as big as the banner above. It would be 2x the size of the sigs i normally make.

 

Minority = Picky >.> No one can ever please him.

 

Seriously man, if you ever want to make anyone happy, stick to their wanted sizes, it makes no change in difficulty if you do change the size, and it really doesn't compromise the images quality as a signature. Just because your so called signature "masters" told you to stick it to 310x100 doesn't mean they're right, it looks way too undersized and it just looks ridiculous.

 

I have to agree the image is barely really "pretty", because its so small it hard to see the work you put in it.

 

All of those look pretty good. I wish I could make sigs like that D:

 

Whoah you really got better and better from 1 to the last...

Nice job

Maybe i should try finding some Tuturials again and get busy with Photoshop...
Got rusty =\

 

You can try using the photoshop section of tutorialized.com. It's a great way to get started off. But if you want to work specifically with signatures SigTutorials.com is devoted to signature tutorials so that's your best bet.

 

sigtutorials is a website i visite during my reign. A site worth visiting
