TomCat's sig thread. Yes it sucks :)

Ok so I tried a bit of sig making with PS ages ago on here with the now Banned 3PK (EDIT: "Now on probation" ) and was an absolute disaster.. The thread is in the Hardwood Classics section somewhere if you want to check it out lol. So anyway back then I didn't really know the first thing about PS and brushes and all the effects and what not so I've decided to try again but actually taken some time to learn the basics through tutorials and such so that I can actually maybe make some half decent signatures. I made my first one with the help of a tutorial which i found online and I will post others up as I do them... Constructive criticism is encouraged

Good First sig, read more tutorials and you get better

Ok tried my hand at something different using different brushes and colors..




???

... Been added to first post

The Second one looks pretty good.
Good luck on making sigs.

You're into My Chemical Romance? Sweet jesus

Anyway, these are an improvement over your last sig thread.

I know MCR is all emo and shit but its really hard to read the black parade one (my early sigs had issues with this too) keep trying dude, it comes easier every one you make.

Yes MCR is all emo and shit lol but I hate that... Emo's are my least favorite people in the world, and I don't really like MCR that much, there's just a few of their songs that I REALLY like... Thanks for the feedback guys!

Ok my latest attempt

Solid.

I'd probably take the blurring/drop shadow off the text and try to make it blend more into the background. Sort of like this...



Otherwise, pretty decent job.

TheDee, Thanks mate

Jae, Thanks for the tips, except I can't see or access the picture that you put up as an example

Okay so I made another one to use as my sig to advertise my Association Story..



EDIT: Made some changes to try and make it blend properly and fix the cutting...

Well it's not bad.
But the cutting is pretty shitty,next time you have bad cutting on players,just stroke them,or put up a shadow,to cover up the bad cutting.

Yeah it's pretty obvious that I cut the LMA and GO pics and downloaded a PSD for Roy lol... Thanks for the tips

EDIT: I've made some changes in an effort to make it look better.. it's in my previous post..

It's #18, no idea why the pic didn't work.

Ok I have a new one up in the first post now.. It's a sig of Matthew Dellavedova, freshman guard who plays for SMC Gaels..

Pretty Nice.

Scoop, they are nice
