They're both great, especially the first.

Most people are gonna suggest that you try to move away from confining your sigs to boxes, so try and work on that. The one King James did for you is a perfect example of how great sigs can be if they're not stuck in a rectangle.

And what fonts are those?

Nightdragon
02-27-2008, 01:31 AM
Cheers! I was thinking about that, james' does look alot better than mine ;)

The first font is El-Font Gothic:

Second is Bleeding Cowboys (from DMC I believe):

No problem, and thanks. :p

You'll get there soon, you already did a great job with the background in the first sig.

Hooray for the Dark Sector one!
I'm not anything special with Photoshop, but I have wanted to make one using that same render for a while now.. I'm just too lazy. :P

This stuff looks good man, especially for just starting.

See you on COD4 on the weekend maybe?
I have had no time for XBox this week. :(

It's a pretty good start mate, take some tuts and you will be fine :).

narcolepticshee
02-27-2008, 05:51 PM
very good start. Alot better than most first sigs. They both look a little blurry though (the text on both and the master chief render). Also, on the master chief one, make the border the top most layer because currently the master chief is on top of it - it looks a bit more polished that way :)

and of course - what everyone will say to you (and i strongly suggest you follow):
1) Download LOADS of brushes and LOADS of fonts
2) Follow as many tutorials as possible
3) Ask for help! If you see someone's style you like, then message them and ask them how they did it!

Real good start :) Nice one :)

Peace

02-27-2008, 06:04 PM
I'm shocked. I expected your first signature to be a black or colored plain background with a render and some text on top.

Nice job. They could use some work but they're really good for a first start.

I can't give out any tips that haven't already been pointed out. Work on them and you'll do fine.

Cheers, i went a bit overboard with the gaussian blur i know...

As for the master chief border, i was sitting with sprostini when i made it and he liked it with him over the border (???) so it was just to spec hehe.

Im browsing deviantart for some more brushes as we speak, love these things ^_^

Sorry for the double post, i updated the first sig for my SOTF entry and i think it looks okay now. Thoughts?

Alot of the best photoshoppers use default brushes. I wouldn't recommend becoming dependent on custom brushes as it would only ruin your creativity.

But thats just me.

I also recommend just fooling around with photoshop and learning it for yourself. You never forget how to do something if you figure it out yourself. You can always ask for pointers, but becoming dependent on tutorials is just as bad as becoming depending on custom brushes.

Just my two cents though.

Nightdragon
02-28-2008, 02:57 AM
Looks pretty freaking amazing, but I am biased because I can't wait for Dark Sector.
To be honest though, changing the font will give you a better chance.
You'll learn that less obtrusive and simpler fonts will make the signature better.
Test is meant to be a tag to let people know you made it, not a major feature of the signature itself.
Kind of like how painters just sign their name or initials at the bottom, not scrawled all over the place.

Or at least that's what I think.

Heh, it does look like a damn good game!!

I felt that the font sorta keeps with the theme but i dunno, we'll see how it goes. A boring font would take from it a bit, maybe downsize it?

RogueVasion
02-28-2008, 03:05 AM
You're a pretty good beginner, I must say. If I ever tried to get into this, I would fail this as fast as I first played Dragonforce on expert. You will get better, guaranteed!

The Halo one is a pretty cool one. I hope to see more in the future! :D

Im not sure if I like it or not, it was pretty much just fucking about with brushes but I don't know...

They are not to bad .. i like the background on the halo one but somehow master chief doesn't seem to fit with the color scheme and the font .. but i like the pop out dark sector one.

SOTF10 entry (photo manip):

Night Dragon :). T'wwas good playing Rawk Band today with you. Now, onto your signatures . I'll start with your latest, the SOTF 10 entry. It looks AMAZING. The photo looked purdy good to begin with and you took and made it awesome. I think the text could do without the italics but thats just my opinion. The depth is really good in this signature and the light coming through the leaves looks pretty good. I think the rainbow butterflies look good in this signature and it works really well with a kind of rainforest background. Overall I think this is really good to say you haven't been using photoshop for long.
Yours faithfully, MW.

Nightdragon
06-05-2008, 12:53 AM
Cheers man, I always appreciate input. Im also not sure on the text, I might have a fiddle before sotf10 closes so I can improve it a little bit.

Been rather bored this evening and played GRID pretty much all day, Just created this:

http://i269.photobucket.com/albums/jj42/NDrag0n/gridsig-v3.png


Not sure about the smudging, trying to think of something to replace it...

Blackjaw x
06-05-2008, 12:53 AM
I think instead of the smudging you should do some sort of wind effect. Make that part of the car its own layer and add the wind filter.

kiwi18
06-05-2008, 05:37 AM
I gotta agree with Blackjaw on this one. It will look better and will be able to see the car better and overall neatness. Keep up the good work.

Cool sigs!! I love your last two! I started with photoshop last week...could you tell me how you did the thing with the render going out the border (you know what I mean, right? 'cause I don't exactly know how to explain it in English!)?? Or perhaps there is a tutorial about it?? Thanks in advance! And hopefully you can comment on my sigs one day ;)!

Dan (3:36):
Chris, it's terrible.

Or it can be 3:32 :P hahaha. Nice work on that Incredible Perp one you did there that everyone seems to love so much ;) Sick work though. The card on the Gambit one is fantastic. Major step up from Dark Sector to my signature. Did you take photoshop steroids? YOU DID DIDN'T YOU?! Bastard.

By the way, you should toss up the original render of the Hulk to show you made him look so dark. If you request anything from this man people, let it be known that he will some how implement it. The Incredible Hulk render he showed me was kind of cartoony, so I asked him to make the whole signature look dark and broodish, so he did a nice solid job of making me look badass.. I mean hulk. Oh my god I let it out I am the hulk!

i really love the gears one, must be very talented into actually putting the locust and marcus out of the actual sig. very well done with all of them.

Thanks everyone for the compliments. Love you too Perp!! There are alot more people more talented than me, supergaz and skillet etc, but I do what I can!!

@Otis & Perp, inner shadow and toying with levels ftw!!

@Corpse, while I like the gears one, I don't think its one of my best. The background is really poor imo.

Got a new one finished earlier from a request:

http://i47.photobucket.com/albums/f186/DialexAirbus14/whiteknight-v1.png

I went a little out of my comfort zone for this one, not sure how I feel about it. Mike likes it which is what matters though right??

Im gunna try and venture around some non pop-out sigs too, but it seems my requests all seem to want them ;)

I recently just started messing around with Photoshop again and I'm absolute shit. Could I get a sig made by you?

Render: http://planetrenders.net/renders/displayimage.php?pos=-21667
BG: I dont care, make it artsy-ish, make it whatever color you think looks good.
Text: Tenaci0us Dan somewhere on the bottom, x360a somewhere in the sig, I don't care where, if you want to sign/watermark it go ahead.

Thanks bud :)

EDIT: Could I have a matching avatar as well? That'd be neato torpedo

Teh_Evil, please send a PM as I forgot about your request because it was in here :p

Time for another big update, not done one in a while with gfx team stuff & moddingness. This will include sigs and a couple of gfx stuff if I deem it worthy.

Lol!!

Im embarrased, because there are a few guys on here that posses far more skill and creativity than I will ever have. I'm one of those guys that has the technical ability but no vision. I create what will look good, but has no spark in comparison to say Gaz's work. Who I would say is the best on the site ;)

Well, you can add this one to the gallery my friend. Thanks so much for this sig Night. And believe me, I asked you to do this for a reason and not anyone else, and its cause I wanted mine done by the best. You did just exactly what I asked for, but made it look so much better than I had pictured it! Great piece of work Night, I'll wear it proudly!:woop:

You really need to work on blending, depth, and the text.
The text on most of them sticks out a lot and kind of conflicts with the sigs' style.
Some of the sigs look like you just brushed all over the place.

Also, I don't think its fair to say he's the best sig maker on the site when you haven't seen every sig maker on the site, which clearly, no one has.

Wow, you have no idea what you're talking about. I'm not going to get into an argument about this, but seriously. Stop criticizing my criticisms incorrectly. There is little depth on most. On some there is plenty, yes, but on most, there's not enough. I'm beginning to think you're conceited and you think you know everything about gfx, which you don't. Once again, you can't rightfully call him one of the best sig makers on the forum without seeing all of them. Its like calling a a midget the tallest person ever because you've only experienced midgets, and you've never seen a person of normal height.
But don't get me wrong, Night is a good sig maker.

So yeah. Whenever you respond to this post, I probably won't read it and I'm not going to respond for the sake of this topic remaining about the critique of the signatures, not the critique of other's critique.

Because i make sigs, i look at other peoples sigs, to see where i can improve mine...
I have looked at most peoples galleries and posted in alot of them.

Im on here nearly every day have and probably seen about 80% or more of all the sig makers on here. So i CAN say what i said.

Firstly, no need to have an arguement guys.

Now:

Text doesn't HAVE to blend. A LOT of my requests actually state that they want visible text. I try wherever possible to blend it though (jappe, evasive, aidank93 for example)

Also, pop-outs are very hard to correctly add depth to. Don't know if you've tried, but it depends on the render. If you have an image that is in essence flat (profile), theres not much you can do to add the illusion of depth. You also don't want to over blur any part of an image that pops out, as it ruins the efffect. Again, a lot of my requests call for pop-out sigs, but I try where I can to make "classic" sigs. Personally I think Aidan's is one of my best.

Also, I don't think you have the right to tell other people I'm not the best. I know I am not the best, I am not saying I am, but let people think what they think. Saying that they cannot is rather harsh don't you think?

I admit I overbrush as well, but as with all of us, I AM still learning...

Sorry for the rant.

Wow, why argue over something stupid like this. Just because someone says "Your one of the best sig makers", doesn't have to mean he has to be, it's called a compliment.

Thanks for the sig anyway Night :p

I don't think it's your place to start criticising a sig maker that is well known throughout the site and is respected greatly. I mean you are telling him that is sigs don't have depth, i haven't seen any of your signatures anywhere on the forums. So before you start criticising anyone of the sig makers on the site show us your work and maybe let us criticise yours. I am an avid sig maker and have had people give me constructive criticsm but there is no need to post something like that.

Rant over.

So because someone has more posts than me I'm not allowed to criticize them? That makes perfect sense.

You haven't seen them? Try looking about 3 threads down.

And by criticizing, I'm not saying they're better than mine, I'm telling him where they need to improve. I never said, "Yours don't have enough depth. Mine do. Look on mine for examples because they are so much better than yours." What I posted was constructive criticism. You said "let other criticize your work." Well, I'm basically begging for it in my thread if you took the time to look down like 3 threads to find my gallery.
