Do I have to put my name on it? =/ I'm just going to upload a copy that I posted of it at a different forum. You can check at my DA gallery if you want to make sure that I made it.

Actually, nevermind. I forgot I uploaded it into my signature.

What's "Artist" theme about :> ?

 

[Leen]

Re: All Purpose Sig Contest Discussion Thread 2008

It can be anything within that word artist. I mean, you can get a Mariah Carey stock, or anything within that range.

Artist can be singers, painters, actors, .... etc. It shouldn't be too hard, I guess.

yo people.
Robot should be REALLY easy to make. You can have realistic robot sigs, anime robots, anything with robot. XD Expand your creativity. Themes will get more interesting every week. Good luck.

Re: All Purpose Sig Contest Discussion Thread 2008

Ah man...I forgot to do one for artist. I had something in mind but I forgot to do it. D:

An idea popped up when I read robot. :P I think I'll work on it after my SATs are over on the 6th.

Re: All Purpose Sig Contest Discussion Thread 2008

Good luck on your SAT. I took it 2 years ago. hahaha.

Ahhhhhh, 2 more days left! D: I wish there were more hours in the day!


Hey hiruma, just a little tip, you might want to lessen the white glow since its making the render hard to see.

Making a sig does not take a lot of time. What's crazy is the render. Getting a good stock can be quite hard if you don't have easy means (like planetrenders). Plus, the thought of having to clean them. yuck.... The first few sigs I made were horrible. I couldn't even put in decent fonts into the sigs. I've improved slightly since then.

Re: All Purpose Sig Contest Discussion Thread 2008

Oh...I meant that for until the SATs are here. It usually takes me about an hour or two to make a signature. For stock I just look around on deviantart or google it. I'm still pretty bad with font lol.

How do you render? I usually just use the pen tool or Quick Mask to do it.

Re: All Purpose Sig Contest Discussion Thread 2008

I don't use those handy tricks. I don't have any skills in pen. Because I self learned everything, I can only use the lasso tool and magic wand as for now. And the eraser. So it is really hard for me to render something. I seriously need to learn how to use pen though. =/

Re: All Purpose Sig Contest Discussion Thread 2008

How about trying this tutorial? It teaches how to use the Pen tool to render, and its not really that hard. http://forums.narutofan.com/showthread.php?t=270181

Re: All Purpose Sig Contest Discussion Thread 2008

Nice link. I shall try the pen soon. I am in my final week for first year in uni. I gotta study for now. Photoshop can come later. I'll have to learn how to use illustrator too.

 

[abcdefghijkL0L]

Re: All Purpose Sig Contest Discussion Thread 2008

Ah...Illustrator. I can't use that at all, I absolutely have no idea how to work it.

Whoops...I finished it this afternoon but forgot to submit it until now. Is that okay?


Oh wait, never mind, I thought today was the 10th for some reason.


Whee, first sig in months.
