Since everyone is commenting all over the place; let me just take a second to say.

w00t I finished my new signature  :D

I love to play around with photoshop, though I am still in the early learning phase. (Like you ever get past it)

Not that I should brag of being good with colors and design and stuff, but I must say:

Are you color blind???

That green-ish, turquoise-ish, blue-ish (or whatever it is :blink: ) color you use is just  :crazy:


But other than that: :rockon:

The font took me a while to find and pick the "right" one, and the background of the text took some thinking.

You could do the background first and then cut out your char and put it on a new layer. Then it wouldn't all be this turquoise-mass.

I would use a background like this...I don't think it looks as neonish because of the slightly darker curls.
(http://schodts.dk/upload/original.jpg) <-- picture from a moonwell, well a part of a picture that is.

There is a lot of nice features you could do
(http://schodts.dk/upload/watercolor.jpg) <-- watercolor-effect

(http://schodts.dk/upload/poster.jpg) <-- posteredges

(http://schodts.dk/upload/paint-daubs.jpg) <-- paint daubs

(http://schodts.dk/upload/plastic-wrap.jpg) <-- plastic wrap

And for my char I like to use poster edges-effect
Example
(http://schodts.dk/upload/beowyn.jpg) <-- background here is a tree

I am no expert, just passing on my ideas  :)

That is nice Odesa, but I liked the effect the moonwell had. You can see parts of my char model fading into the blue light. But I will agree it is abit too intense.

Duh...

Way too big, and that also goes for Sinap's and Gorion's too if you ask me...

I don't know if it's posted on this forum, but on our old form there was some guidelines to how big a signature max should be, and I thinkg people should try to stick to that.  Vargen's is about the right size (could have been wider without ruining it though) :)

Perhaps somebody can find those guidelines for signatures and post 'em here? or in a sticky or something?
