[Caledonia]

moved this post from Scorpions topic to here for editing reasons



"well i tried one for the unreal,mass effect and doom? theme so far,hope its not that bad.lol







as i am working with photoshop i save them in the psd format.so if anything needs changing it can be done bit by bit without starting from scratch. "

[Caledonia]

here are another set of signatures. some i did recently, others i did awhile back. see what you think.

they weren?t ordered. i only posted them here to see what they would look like when on the forum.

Good stuff buddy, I can see you have been practicing and made a lot of progress! My favorites in your last post are Ace Rimmer's and Fen's. The way you set up the color balance in Ace's is really nicely done I think, and I really like the partial border that overlaps in the bottom left corner in Fen's sig, as well the large transparent area. And the colors fit each other well in that one too.

If you don't mind me giving you one little tip though: most of your sigs that have shadows near the outer borders, have the shadows cut off at the sig outer edges. Fen's sig is a good example of that. This is hard to see when you are working on it, but it always shows when the sig is posted. You can prevent this by making sure that the borders of the shadow layers do not cross the final outer borders of the sig (the 500x150). I personally always apply the shadows on a new 100% transparent border, and make sure this layer is 500x150 px or smaller before I introduce the shadows.
What I find very helpful too, is having one (or sometimes 3) background layer(s) in white, black and/or grey (the forum background color). While working on the sig I click these layers on and off, to see if there might be some residual pixels from a render floating around, and everything is where it should be.

By the way, I love the font on Qjake's sig. (the one you used for his name) Any chance you wanna tell me what the name of that font is?

Keep up the good work buddy!

Caledonia,

I can't find the words to tell how i like, is it possible for you when you get some time, to have a look to the
newest ones sig I'd like some like this, if possible. Please let me know if it is possible, I am ready to put credits
for your work, your above sigs are just marvelous, and I think this word is not strong enough. Ah my comrad
The Contractor is fully impressed and stayed without voice, starving to have his own.

Meanwhile i send you my best regards.

Nice work Caledonia, but! Dont know how to explain, when i look at Contractors sig you made my eyes stick to only one spot, kind of ignoring overall view because that spot in my view is critical.
It is where black guys skull crosses the border of the sig. It just screams MAGNIFY ME and see if the head is cut a bit or i ends up just right there (in the last case, its really bad).
May I suggest either make the guy little bigger so head "cut" would be more obvious/use transparancy to make head go over the border, or make him the way his head does not reach the border.

(Could be just me though...)

problem is, his head is really cut off at that point. and it was just a draft to see how the signature would look on the forum. here is the original picture for comparison.

Cale,

I can't wait to see you, I have only to stand up and applause, this sig is absolutely what I expected,
a pure wonder. I show it to my comrad and he agrees with me, this sig is made for me. Whatever you may
ask me, be sure I'll always be there.
