Butterfly?^^ Cool! That's what my nickname means in italian^^

Re: All Purpose Sig Contest Discussion Thread 2009

Nice to know farfalla... may I ask why a portuguese speaking person uses an italian nick?

 

[Farfalla]

Re: All Purpose Sig Contest Discussion Thread 2009

Because "chou-chou" was too... common? XD
I like the greek mythology about Eros and Psyche. And Psyche means "butterfly" ("soul", too). I just looked for a word that would mean "Psyche" but few people would know the meaning^^ (except for italians XD but at that time, I only talked to brazilians thru net). Anyway, I'd like the nickname "chou", but thanks to Harry Potter, it just became cliche XD OMG, sry for the long story @.@ and the bad english, I'm a little sleepy^^'

so many pics to choose from :S this theme should have had a special condition... instead of doing one sig, do about 2 or 3

Re: All Purpose Sig Contest Discussion Thread 2009

@Andrews I'm sorry. That should have been obvious, but seriously, if you manage to do something spectacular with gods and butterflies, I will be highly impressed.

I'm glad that this theme is so well-received by everyone.

The currently submitted sigs look lovely. I have come to expect an ecchi signature from you, Sasori; so, I make it a habit of trying to imagine how your signatures will look. Once again, I wasn't able to guess completely correctly. It looks quite nice as usual.

kakashi919, I am glad you chose Bleach. When I was imagining manga that might be good for signatures on this theme, Bleach was one of them that came to mind. I was thinking that a Rukia signature was going to appear from whomever chose Bleach, but I am pleasantly surprised to see Soi Fon. The Muhammad Ali line was an especially nice touch.

Also, I learned something today thanks to you, Farfalla. I didn't know "psyche" also meant butterfly in ancient Greek. I also didn't know the meaning of your user name. Thank you for the education.

Re: All Purpose Sig Contest Discussion Thread 2009

You're welcome^^
I'd like to also ask you a favor! (to you and to the others, as well XD)
I reeeally need to practice my english >< for future jobs...
And I can understand well, but I'm not good at writing.
When I make a mistake, could you guys correct me?^^
I'd be learning this way^^

Re: All Purpose Sig Contest Discussion Thread 2009

Sign subscribed. I try thinking about "god" and "butterflies"... I try "dark butterflies" in conection with the xxxHolic's climate... In the end i make a "Dark", "Devil", "Demonic", "Peaceful" Watanuki. IHIUehaiuheiuae... >.<

*dizzy* @_@

Re: All Purpose Sig Contest Discussion Thread 2009

I'm stumped at what to do ~.~ But I'll have a crack at it tomorrow. Found a rather decent render off Planetrenders, just typed in butterfly =P

As for the Bleach one, Soi Fon in facts stings using a butterfly mark and flashes around like a bee(More of a wasp, but that wouldn't fit the opposite-Ali quote, now would it?) So it's quite a nice juxtaposition

Ah, also. Could I possibly request that the size limit height be increased as on the submission page, they are stretched which causes loss of quality which could leave a bad impression on people who just glance and view instead of clicking on them to view the image in its proper resolution. Since it's mandatory to put it on Large Thumbnail, it stretches it, my guess is. I also believe that it's quite too small to notice small details which go unnoticed a lot as I post everything I photoshop on various graphic sites, as well the boxing one. And most of the people couldn't make out some of the details which surprised me, but since many of these people couldn't make some of the details out I ruled out the thought of the individual having bad eyesight or w/e. So I would like to promptly request this of you, Mr. Sig-contest-manager, please!

Re: All Purpose Sig Contest Discussion Thread 2009

@tsukisama, thanks! but the reason i did not use rukia is because i don't really like her character. i thought soi fong was more suiting for this theme with her butterfly mark and all that
