Another attempt to make a sig,

[KingdomBlade]

This time, I used Deep Dive, added some text using a certain awesome font, blurred some pics, didn't blur some. All the same but slightly different, and I wan't your opinion on which is the best.

The original image

Spoiler

Darkened

Spoiler

Even more darkened

Spoiler

Original w/ text blur

Spoiler

Blurred darkened

Spoiler

Blurred really dark

Spoiler

So, there is a huge amount here, which of these should I use?

 

[luke_c]

The Original w/ text blur is the best one there i'd say, could use with a border and a stroke around the text to make it more visible, but good attempts.

 

[Burnedmagix]

It being darkened makes it look like it's bad on the eyes/alot of contrast

So yeah, original text with blur

 

[Maz7006]

i liked your old sig/ava

 

[KingdomBlade]

Really? The ava was not original. And the sig was, just another attempt you see. Or are you referring to the one by luke_c?

EDIT: Just in case anyone was wondering, the font I used was Evanescent. The font of the band Evanescence. If anyone is interested in using it, look here: http://www.dafont.com/evanescence.font

To tell you the truth, I'd choose the original image or the original blurred image over everything else but I feel you can do better then this. I hope to see more work from you Kingdom Blade.

 

[KingdomBlade]

What do you think about the ava?

 

[Rock Raiyu]

What do you think about the ava?

It's good but again, I feel you can do a lot better then this. It wouldn't hurt to throw in a C4D or two in there.

 

[KingdomBlade]

What's a C4D?

 

[Law]

What's a C4D?

A 3D render, usually created within Cinema 4D, but other programs (3d Studio Max, Maya) can also be used.

 

[Rock Raiyu]

What's a C4D?

A C4D is a render that instead of being used for for display, gives effects or amplifies the background of art. My avatar for example uses C4Ds, you can see a sort of "ray" coming out of his hat and around it.

And yeah, Law got it right too.

Here are a bunch of C4D resources you can use.

 

[KingdomBlade]

Ok, lemme try later.

Wait a minute. It's not transparent?

 

[Rock Raiyu]

Some are, some aren't. I put all the C4Ds on color dodge layers and lower the opacity cause like I said, they are only to be used for effect.

 

[KingdomBlade]

OK, let me try in a while. They do look good.

 

[Splych]

Your old siggy is better ;P

This one is... Nyeh. I just don't feel it. Add border.

 

[KingdomBlade]

Which one?

 

[luke_c]

Start a new one from scratch, take your time, and make it look nice, at the moment your sig and avatar are a bit meh.

 

[Splych]

It was in one of those threads where you announce a new avatar created. It was that one with a stock image? I told you to add stockimages and you said alright leme try... Then you made it... I think the person was Sora...
