Do you want a sig?

Post by Ray2master »

I can make simple sigs in short time. If you don't have a sig, come here, and I'll make you one!

Please state who you want in it (If it's a non-rayman character, YOU provide the pics!) and what effect the text should have! Thank you!

Here is the official signatures topic.
Important notice: You have to keep your sigs under 500 pixels width for the forum look not to be spoiled [THE SAME FOR THE PICTURES IN THE POSTS: OVER THIS LIMIT, JUST POST THE LINK]. There's no special limit for the signatures height, but you should not make them too high :idea:

Please report here every signature that is too large :idea:

There are a lot of good things in your sigs, but also bad.
If you work on these things, you might become RayMuchSigsMaster.

-Try to not leave some pixels around the character, that really is the one that bothers the most...
-Try to make the names not paste over the head or body of a character. The one of skater: Now you don't see his head anymore. It's like a photo with your name on it, and your name is over your head, can you imagine? :)
-Try to make a line or something, around the pic. So that there is another color around the pic, that should do as edge. (Gigaman's small sig) It looks better, really.
-Try to not paste a pic just next to another, like in the 3rd pic. Now the rayman is too far away, and it jumps just to the black of murphy's pic. I think you should take a murphy pic with a white bkg. ;)
-Finally, add some cool effects to your pics, like a sunray or something. (Check gigaman's big sig, a bit in the rightunder corner ;))

But if there are negative things, there are positive things too:

-I think you did a great job at first. Especially for a amateur.
(I can know it, i started alot more negative then you ;))
-You did cool objects in the corners of the pics sometimes, that's really cool! :up:
-You did nice shading, with the Henchman pic, it is really a nice shading.
-Also cool 3D letters, you made it look better by that, really!
-You also did nice fonts, i never used these, they made me stare more then five minutes to them! :)

I hope you can do something with this, and i hope that i helped a bit.
I'd like to see more of your sigs! ;)

LK, you must undearstand some things:
1. A LOT of what you listed I CANNOT DO! It's NOT POSSIBLE.
2. The shading was already on the pic when I got it.
3. I use PrintShop, not photoshop, so there's a lot that's NOT POSSIBLE.
4. You have to take what I can give you. The Rayman pic had that extra space on it already, and it'd look weird for him to have the ending of his chain showing, instead of being st the edge where it looks right.
5. Murfy came with a black background, and I can't change it. I thought the 2 tone effect was cool! Notic how the text adjusts to it as well!
6. It's NOT POSSIBLE for me to add lines on the pics, for they have backgrounds of either white or black. Unless you WANT to see the square boarder around the pics... And the sunlight thing, NOT POSSIBLE. It's also NOT POSSIBLE to add backgrounds and make it look good it the pics have backgrounds to them!

First of all, the way you write it, is like an attack.. :shock:
I didn't mean to attack you at all....:?
Anyway, sure, fine if you can't do that no problem. But it still misses some extra things. Then indeed, i'll have to take your sigs as they are. But then i won't take them. Just, make them the way you like them, and give em'.
I won't say more things about this, it's not meant to take your pics down, these where only some tips for you.

PS: You can make the lines with paint, save as BMP, and convert the BMP with a photo-editor, like the one you have, to JPG.

I know you didn't attack me, and I HAD to make sure you understood. Most members don't understand things unless I post that way... but the thing is, my program isn't like yours. What I do with my sigs is make them to the full extent my program will allow. It wasn't ment for fancy stuff anyway. So, those extra things, like a fade-in-fade-out look, or sunlight, or whatever, just can't be done. Didn't I say they were basic sigs? And what's with the lines? I like to make it look like they were ment to be there. Not have something with what looks like "stickers" on it. Who knows, maybe I'll find a way of doing more things. However, I need pics with clear backgrounds to have backgrounds, if you know what I mean. And GIF images can't be used on my program, and GIF images tend to have clear backgrounds... so you know where I'm leading with this......

But, I must say, I'll have to do experimenting. But, I'm pretty sure that this is the best I can do.

Try downloading the Ulead program called PhotoImpact once, and check what you can do with that.

I think I got a great idea, how about you make the picture, and I'll make the text. You liked my text, and I like your pictures, so people get the best of both!
