First sig attempt Redone

Al3X · **Posted:** November 22nd, 2008, 12:56 pm

well I just made my first sig from scratch. Butchered the Firefox logo in the process though.

C&C please.

Spoiler for original:

edit: I just noticed a major mistake i hadnt seen before, made the firefox logo a little too high and theres a bit of a gap at the bottom :oops:

hopefully I won;t do that again. Can't be bothered to fix it now.

edit:

So I redid the signature, used different brushes, coloration, font, and cropped the render better. Heres the finished product:

Spoiler for Redone:

Compare to original please ^.^

revised a bit more: (blurred edges of render, changed font to black)

Spoiler for Redone V2:

Its an ok first signature.

But you need to work more on the background and making it interesting. Your text is a little dull too, there are some great font sites out there with thousands of fonts to choose from so check some out like dafont.
And also, you can easily get a firefox logo render here, aswell as a whole lot of other useful renders.

I like the background, but as said before the font isn't the best choice.

Ya I didn't know how to get new fonts when I made it but thanks to Humus for that sight.

Thanks for the thoughts guys, I might do sortve a "rework" of it later, probably not though.

cool, but i don't really think that the background goes with that well.

I did that with several of my sigs, they improve. Give it a shot.

Firefox is horrible in my opinion

Off-topic, yes?

But I agree anyway.

The signature is okay though.

Just redid it.

Don't let your dislike of the render bias your opinion

Looks good, but I think you should turn the font to either White or Black, whichever is more visible. Blue doesn't seem to work with the signature. But the background is greatly improved. Try just going round the edges of the firefox logo with the blur tool so it's not like you just dumped a render on a background.

Ok, Ill try that.

edit: ok done.

Looks much better, now.
Black font improves it by a lot.

Wham94 · **Posted:** November 23rd, 2008, 2:36 pm

Congratulations, an excellent piece of work

Have fun making more.
