never ever lower the opacity of your render Grin

Actually, I don't care whether I made a nice one or a cool one. What matters to me most is that I had fun making it. GFX-ing seems like the perfect hobby for someone like me.

It just seems that everybody is recomming others to use Cinema 4D things as if it were the only source that could improve their work.


One day I will make a quick walkthrough for a signature I make.
Cant wait for that tut hope i can find my own "Style" and GFX-ing
Kai-v, please do it soon.

My next battle will blow you all away and the C4D's, at least hopefully.
I will not do a tutorial on what I do ... I will just show some steps out of what I do. For instance, nothing, then the background, then the final signature. The background often undergoes even more modifications once I have put it within a 500x120 canvas.

Got it, thanx. Then again that would work if I made another layer with my render in it, and that layer wouldn't be transparent.

Who wouldn't be, lol. I'd like to see that too. BBS does surprise me sometimes, so, he might blow me mind, good luck with the signature BBS!
It will not be dissapointing, also NoodooSoup, I said "I hope so". Uncertain
I made this sig and I have been GFXing for about a week what do you think please no super criticism and this is not my best

Not bad...tell me what program do you use
It's pretty cool. However I think that the text color should be slightly lighter because it blends in with the background. Other than that, it's great!
Ok, so some of you may have noticed that this is my newest sig. I couldn't get a zip file from the downloads that Othellog sent me so I could work on my GFXing, so all critique is welcome. You can say it's the worst thing you've ever seen, as long as you back it up with reasons.
IT'S THE WORST THING I'VE EVER SEEN.
Kidding, I like it. I'm not a master of sorts in this, so I can just say I like it. You're getting better by the day, Sparta.
Im not too good myself Sparta but My opinon is its too...dull? Add something...this may help http://www.gimptalk.com/index.php?showtopic=32709...it adds light and stuff...but i wish you luck in the future sparta!
I like this one. Just try not to put too many renders or make the ones on the left and right smaller. You want one focus.

You should have lost yourself in the music the moment you wanted it, you should have never let it go (Except in present tense) Wink

Honestly, I typed "One suggestion", but then deleted it because I couldn't think of anything. It's really good, honestly!
I made this because I was bored what you guys think!
