Just to share my opinion on graphics programs. I believe that you can make good works on Gimp, but never as good as a experienced Photoshop artist could create. Even at that, you will never get a graphics career based on using gimp for 7 years(As Gimp is never used in the professional world.), it would be better to be working in a Photoshop environment for a shorter time. Also, a knowledge of Cinema 4D and adobe Illustrator would help a person get a job.(Not to mention a bachelors degree in graphics design.) Just to let you guys know, because I feel that a graphics designer is a great career choice that I would like doing, and I wouldn't want any of you guys/girls to be working in the wrong environment through your whole life.

:D for the committee

How could you make only the owl face resemble a whole dog body ? This is what I meant. The way Taj12 wrote it, he must have implied that he wanted "the owl face [to] look like the dog [face]", because in any case that sentence does not really make sense.

My sentence sounds strange because of what you said.
You said how can a owl's face look like it belongs a dogs body, when that's not the point. The point is exactly that, it doesn't belong on a dogs body haha.
You can still make it look like the dog's head is actually an owl, it won't be realistic but it can look "real"

Agreed. However Cinema 4D is for a different genre of design.
I am proficient with both photoshop and illustrator and now I am
capable of creating commercial quality designs. However, when working
with programs like photoshop and illustrator, you can watch tutorials
and learn the program to get better to a point. These programs are mere
enablers, you need to have the creativity and originality to put them to good use.

Cnc's On My Current Sig

Well, it isn't good.

First, there's no depth in it. The Render seems to be expanded, and the scan lines isn't blending right. The text Is Not good, plus that blue wave isn't buying.

What's good is your flow and colors. Your style? Find others, as it doesn't look good.

I think the light source is really cool actually. Things do not always have to look natural, you are making graphics ...

Of course, the signature picture would be a lot better if it were several pixels 'skinnier', but it is not bad at all. Furthermore, I am not certain that you can claim that in all cases you should never place an image in the middle ...

well it is to change stuff a bit because we have a natural instinct to place it in the middle(correct me if im wrong)

Hah,Xyo,listen to the GFX queen.If i don't put it in the middle,the light source would be in the background.It makes the render looks like a part of the BG itself.

"You want something to happen? Make it happen."
[Novel] The Andromeda Files : The End Of Eternity

The sparkle effect from the light looks cool, but I assume that's Ed's hand, right? It's kinda distracting from the main focal of the sig, which is the render. The light makes me look at it, not the render.

"In many ways, the work of a critic is easy. We risk very little, yet enjoy a position over those who offer up their work and their selves to our judgment. We thrive on negative criticism, which is fun to write and to read. But the bitter truth we critics must face, is that in the grand scheme of things, the average piece of junk is probably more meaningful than our criticism designating it so. But there are times when a critic truly risks something, and that is in the discovery and defense of the new. The world is often unkind to new talent, new creations. The new needs friends. Last night, I experienced something new: an extraordinary meal from a singularly unexpected source. To say that both the meal and its maker have challenged my preconceptions about fine cooking is a gross understatement. They have rocked me to my core. In the past, I have made no secret of my disdain for Chef Gusteau's famous motto, "Anyone can cook." But I realize, only now do I truly understand what he meant. Not everyone can become a great artist; but a great artist can come from anywhere."

-Anton Ego/Peter O'Toole (1932-2013)

You never put a stationary render in the middle of a sig unless you're going to do
some really nice compo, depth, and blending. Also Xyo, was right, there is no flow and the lightsource is bad because you can clearly see on the render that the light is hitting him from the front, not from the back.

The character emanates the light in some places, hence why the eyes are lit up.

His eyes can't light up his whole body. Light source aside.
Whatzzer you need to work on your backgrounds. You should also
add more elements to your sigs to create depth and compo
