I often wonder why all of the battles never use the poll? Surely then more people would vote and people would be more likely to choose their favourite signature without everyone knowing who they vote for? End the poll then people reply their criticism? Then there'd be no follow the leader tactics.

I personally think that not listing the people's names might also help, as it doesn't take much figuring who's is who's entry, when there's only 2 people and their both listed.

I was just thinking this. Why not have anonymous polls, while critiquing using the comments?


RE: General GFX Thread - Kai-V - Aug. 06, 2011

Actually, in the beginning people were supposed to give a good reason behind their vote when they posted, but for some reason this was never enforced when the tournament began, and even before. This is, however, why there were to be no polls.

RE: General GFX Thread - othellog - Aug. 07, 2011

About this whole time issue, I don't think its that important. OK, someone beat you who has less skill then you....
I won my 1st only because everyone hated the other sig, that is worse BBS. I agree with Kai-V, for some reason. But, there is no reason for people to vote because of the entry with the most votes?! Anyway, the tourney would be better if only certain people could vote, but that would be un-democratic in a way. Which is kinda carp.
Sigh.. My point is you can talk all the carp you want, but its still not change the fact of the matter at hand.
BBS I'm not disagreeing with you completely bro, but I'm just saying its not worth worrying about. Tongue_out

I think some of this stuff has been already said, so forgive me if you think this post is useless.


RE: General GFX Thread - BeybladeStation - Aug. 07, 2011

I guess you have a point. I'll calm down.


RE: General GFX Thread - NoodooSoup - Aug. 07, 2011

I have no idea who that is in the sig, but he looks cool Smile

Umm....a little plain with the white on white, but definitely not bad.


RE: General GFX Thread - BeybladerPotter - Aug. 07, 2011

Hm....while most of this issue gets points hands down, I agree with snakebite.

This is like the time when everyone will go with the "flow" and what their "leader" says.

It is like the time when the Philippines was colonized by the Spaniards. The leader of Bohol befriended the Spaniards and so the natives were forced to be friendly too.

Personally, polls would have been a better option however the criticism needed to support your vote is gone. And voting on the poll then posting your thoughts after...it is like before again. When some respectable member comes around and post criticism, people will also post something similar and vote for the same thing.

This is only my thoughts of this issue. Thanks!

P.S.: I'll work on that Kai-V. I gotta find quality pics.
Another P.S.Confusedparta and Taiwo, if you guys need help on anything on GIMP, feel free to PM me. ^^

It's just a random dude, lol Tongue_out


RE: General GFX Thread - Synth - Aug. 07, 2011

To that whole "why we dont post poll" thing:

it was to give comments to help the gfx makers. the other intention is to avoid multiple accounts and vote for themselves rather than others voting for them


RE: General GFX Thread - Vintage - Aug. 07, 2011

Hmm, I've been wanting to try this...anyone using PS? If so, anyone wanna do a collaboration with me?

A fair bit of the so called CnC is people just saying:

'I agree with what's said above and I vote for ...'

Which they probably haven't read, so you only get about maybe 2-3 really good CnC's. Even when I read through them I look for Kai-V's comments, as there fairly good and/or harsh.

As far as avoiding people voting for themselves, isn't there about the same risk anyway? Anyone can sign up and just go comment in the topic, it's no different from signing up and voting.


RE: General GFX Thread - Synth - Aug. 07, 2011

There was once an instance someone made a group userbar contest. I joined, and dome others did to.

Now, a guy made multiple accounts to vote for himself, which caused disqualifying himself. He was noticed quite easily: he made accounts with goofy names.


And besides, wouldnt it be too obvious if someone makes new accounts and vote for themselves?


RE: General GFX Thread - snakebite - Aug. 07, 2011

It depends, as long as they give a decent reasoning no ones going to question their vote, it only comes down to someone checking their post count, or the way they write or as you say their name.

What program do you use PAINT.NET, GIMP or photoshop or is it something else?
Oh and by the way I like it its pretty simple but nice and neat!


RE: General GFX Thread - Sparta - Aug. 07, 2011

Alright, this is my newest sig. I cheated on making Kyon B&W by using first cutting the render and then using iPhoto effects (I uploaded it to there). For once, I don't think my cutting was carp! What do you guys think?

GIMP is, but not photoshop if you want a really good version of it.


RE: General GFX Thread - .:J:. - Aug. 07, 2011

ok thanks dude, also do you know anything to do 3d animation which is free? just because i really want to make a 3d model/ simulation of custom beys before i make it, also it would be good to use for my avatar and sigs
