Signatures don't always have to be big. The standard is usually up to the forum, but most of the time square-ish or super tall signatures are very rare (and most of the time not allowed anywhere).

I improved my sig a little.



Sorry to be a noob, but what is blending and how do you do it.

First try at GIMP I used a tutorial, although I did skip and add some steps. Well, tutorials help you learn, right? The only thing is that there's no depth Also, I rendered the image myself. Took a hell of a long time, but it was worth it.

It looks pretty nice, its pretty basic with blending of colors, but if u can do this on your first try, you got skillz.

This is not my round 5 entry, but it looks beast:

I love making these!!!

NoodooSoup, with tutorials, I like to add my own twist. Like use a different character and color theme. I think thats the better way to learn ,but keep it up. Its nice to have more gimp users.

I made a sweet entry for the transformers themed GFX battle. I'll show it to you huys after I loose the battle. One thing I did ws download a fracktal pack (bad spelling...damn auto correct). It had a background that was perfect, and my path tool served me well.

You can darken the edges and lighten her up a bit to create some depth.

NEVER PUT YOUR RENDER ON THE SIDE.

Flow is there, blending to. But where's the light source?

Edit: thats your best sig you made

There was none so it made it hard...i guessed i thought it was from the ball... and it was one of those pictures where the side was cut....so it would have looked ugly

True

i made an easy fire effect background. It is the most easiest thing to do:

1. Open new file. Fill it with black
2. Now get any C4D, recolor it to pure yellow, and randomly place it at the black background
3. All layers execpt for the black one: put the blending to linear light(?).
4. Now get mad with smudging. Make sure you have a nice render to match with it .

Now, following this step, here is how to make the effect of the render ON THE FIRE

1. Get another C4D, probably a cross type or something. Make sure its the same yellow color
2. Again, put it on linear light.
3. Smudge away!

Better put this ON FRONT of the render for a burning effect!

I'll show a finished signture using this technique! Oh and it doesn't have to be yellow. You can make it blue or green

Wow, one thing I've noticed is that my text is always lame . Anyone know where I can get cool texts and/or how to download them? Like Othellog, that weird breaking text in your sig can't be from a regular text, can it?

Hm, never really watched that show much...but I'd say a flowing pinkish purple would be nice.

Heres an example of what you can do with just a render. It makes the penguin blend in with the background which basically is the penguin with some steps.

Try dafont.com just download them, extract the font file and paste it into:

Local Disk C - Windows - Fonts

If your using a mac you need to download mac versions of fonts, but there's not always both version. I couldn't tell you where you need to paste them to though.
