You've got a good concept going. I would start by using a smoother font (thicker too). and making the sig smaller but keeping the character and text about the same size. Basically there's too much empty space and the background doesn't match well with the character or any of the text.

Decent cropping job on the rs character though  :nice:

tyvm hm i got a problem in paint.net and my other programs 2 draw are not many fonts can you tell me how i can get more? like that one in your sign:D

Posted

I made mine in photoshop. Got the fonts from I think dafreefonts.com or something like that. Just search "Free Fonts" on google lol. There really are a lot of options and you can just choose whatever you feel would look nice.

:nice:

Hello, and thanks for taking interest in making sigs!

If you want to excel and learn how to use Photoshop to an effective degree, you should try going here. This link will help you with all of the basics, including where to begin and whatnot.

As for the signature you've posted, Stand's basically covered everything. If you want to post any more of your work for critiquing purposes do not hesitate to post here again! :nice:

rs extract + C4D + MS paint text does not equal sig.  :mellow:

You do know that won't say a damn thing to him, right?  :lol:

Like D72 said aswell, Stand covered everything. Try to put your hands on photoshop.

As for getting different fonts, try to visit www.dafont.com . If you see a font you like, download it and paste it in your font map.

Good luck. :nice:

I take it this is your first one? In many ways it's like my first one:

Ugly isnt it? I had no idea about depth and didnt have very many techniques under my belt, but i kept making more and i progressed and hopefully still am progressing, just follow tuts to get some techniques then personalize them mix techniques you've learned together and so on and you will improve gl :)

I would get photoshop for sigs or they wont look very good and yeh more fonts is nice :) ... or make your own...

EDIT It might be easier to make a sig not using a rs cut-out because they are very pixelated i find it easier and prefer using higher quality renders like off planetrenders ( or the giant c4d and render pack i dled its amazing, if you or anyone want it ill repack them and upload it :) )

Just like severed arrow.. Everyone who's doing gfx now had a start, in which I don't think many were good.

Just like me, I started making signatures with Microsoft Paint and in my opinion now they suck lol.

I think I've really improved through the years and I just know I still am improving and becoming better, just because I'm learning alot by the constructive critism people give me. Just a little thing you need to remember. CC is not to make you feel bad about the mistakes you've made, it's there to let you improve and learn from your mistakes. Don't give up if someone says it sucks. Just go on, keep practicing, because knowledge is power.

This is my first signature I've ever made and don't you tell me it's good because it isn't l0l

A few more words I'd like to say to end with...

Practice makes perfect.

thanks for your helps and tipps:P can some1 tell me where i can get free fotoshop? i cant found :S

and yes i only used a picture of rs and a c4d but who cares? with paint.net and the material i got in there you can only make like 4 signs and they will all look like each other :P but im trying to do my best and to make a new sign after i get a new good idea :P

To get a pirated copy of Photoshop you have to download a torrent and seed it; that's probably the fastest and safest way to do so. Don't try downloading a copy from Limewire or anything, as the majority of them are major viruses.

I think it's a good start. Try using another font, it doesn't really fit in with the rest. Try experimenting on different effects and watch tutorials.

and tyvm i will download the torrent soon i think:P

ok the first one i think you need to work on your colour scheme and your not really incorporating your runescape render its kind of just there also i dont think you should have put the c4d or whatever the stuff that looks like smoke is on top of your render

as for the second one as many people told me when i made my first handdrawn thing L2anatomy look at the preportions alothough the anatonmy isnt too bad also line the head up wit hthe body :L, i dont see why it is transparent :S again you need to learn to incorporate your render more

All in all they aren't too bad as your new to this but look for some tutorials on depth and learn to incorporate the renders more and for the colour scheme i like to keep to colours that are on my render it makes it look allot better imo

Im not slating your sigs this is just some good old friendly cc :)

Gl with future gfx
