Updated the Melo sig again. Multicoloured, yellow added in the 'explosion' of the sig.

I like the yellow into the Carmelo sig, but how it's placed looks too random. I'd try to find a way to make in feel more incorporated to the sig and less out of place.

How would you suggest doing that. Right now it's the bright areas that I decided to colour yellow. And of course I can't fade the yellow much at all or I'll get a nasty green.

Maybe putting more of a streak, instead of the odd freeform type shape right now. It doesn't exactly ruin the sig, I just think it detracts a little from a very nice looking sig.

Good work as always Colin. Both are sick banners. Your pretty good at doing the grunge background thing. I am starting to get use to it I guess.

The Carmello one is great. Hakim Warrick looks good, but why did you put the arrow to his eyes? We all know that his eyes lead to the text, but now it looks like that arrow is gonna poke his eyes out ;)

I don't like the Nas sig much at all. Simple, but not effective in my eyes. Text isn't very good and seems a little out of place (I'd put the text together, maybe with some little pattern seperating them). The background doesn't have much depth, and doesn't have something to complete it. I'd problably make the sig a little smaller (width-wise mostly) and maybe add a little bit of some scanlines or other patterns, with some messed around opacity and erasing.

There is a reason that it is simple like that. The song 'Dance' is about him having 'one last dance' with his mother, who died of cancer. I didn't want to complicate the background at all. And with the text it's two seperate thoughts, so I didn't want it together. The idea behind it is that everything around him is just racing past him while his mother died.

If that made sense...

I understand the reasons for having simplicity there, but I have to agree with FendeR that the text isn't very good. Try to keep it within one color instead of one black and in one white, and it looks out of place where you positioned them horizontially. I disagree with FendeR, though, on adding more elements, which would only make it more complicated than it should. Right now, the way I see it, Nas is not the moving, because of his positioning in the center, it looks as if the motion is revolving around him, as if he was dizzy and about to puke. Hence, position him asymetrically. Since this is his last dance, involving his mother who died of cancer, make it a spotlight or someplace dark, because the blue is a little too cheerful for the kind of mood.

Pretty good, my favorite is the Twin Towers one, good job on that. How long have you been doing this? You are getting pretty good.

I like the New Aftermath one, the Nas and Jay Z one is good too, but as u said, smaller looks better, but in that case it wouldnt have looked as good.

Twin Towers sig is awesome. I'd ask if I could use it somewhere but since it's got Jackal's name on it I'll refrain.
