Z0mg, Doublepost!

New WIP:



I know it needs something else, but I don't know what.. Any suggestions?

~V.

[Warbz]

the BG is very plain.

maybe use some tech brusehes to spuce it up

[Nexolate]

And a border. =/

[Dauth]

Theres a lot of contrast there, but i can appreciate that you dont want to put too much on the sig.

I'd try changing the text, maybe have it slightly bolder.

[Vaughan]

Well of course I'm going to add a border and a background.. But I'm more or less referring to the actual signature itself.

[Crazykenny]

I think it looks kinda nice.

[Vaughan]

I added my Piano set.

And I decided to go a new direction with my WIP:



I'm trying to find some cool text to go with it. C/C?

No ideas on Text, but that is one sweet Sig mate.

8.5/10.

[Warbz]

yeh much better

[Waris]

Eye-catching and not over-complicated.

[Sic]

I really like that. It's got simplicity and it looks pleasing.

[Dauth]

Love the Piano set, and the WIP looks good too.

[Vaughan]

Thanks, mates.

I'm still working on the text.

[Whitey]

Nice stuff man, Lovin' the piano. Not lovin the centered-ness of it, never liked the centered sigs, they look off-balance.

[Vaughan]

How can a centered signature be off-balance?

Oh well, we all have our opinions.

~V.

[Whitey]

Measure the distance from the sig to the left side of the page, then measure it to the right. You'll notice a discrepency.

Also, the lil' white line doesn't lead into the centered sigs, so grr argh.

[Vaughan]

Oh!

I thought you mean signatures with a center-piece.

Ah, you meant the actual position on the thread, now I see. That's a different story.

It's a tough decision, but I prefer them centred, it gives them more of a "solo" feel, if you know what I mean. Even though the white dotted line is to the far left, I usually try to ignore it.


EDIT: More work on my WIP.. Tried a font, don't know what I think about it though..

Awesome sig mate

[Dauth]

I can see why you don't know, i don't either. you could try running blood down the centre of the sword, (the dip was intended for this use).

[Vaughan]

I know, but I think it'd make it look too bloody.

~V.

[Sgt. Nuker]

The font choice is perfect for its location. Gives the appearance of a "fresh" kill.

@Dauth: Correct me if I'm wrong, but I could have sworn the dip/indentation on a sword was meant to give it strength, not a valley for blood to spill down.


Regards,

Nuker

[Vaughan]

Thanks, Nuker. I'm not sure about the indentation, I've heard that it was also to make the sword more lightweight.

And here's a new experimentation.. I'm aiming for it to be a high-quality User-"Bubble", if you know what I mean.

[Dauth]

@Vaughan i like the bubble

@Nuker, imagine what happens when you stick a plain sword in someone, some blood spills out but then a vacuum forms and it can be very hard to remove the sword, from a bloke whos trying to hack your guts out. The dip allows a flow of blood or air in and out of the wound thus allowing the sword to be removed, the curve is a strong shape and is another beneficial effect of the dip.

[Vaughan]

@ Dauth, Yes that makes sense now.

Here's a more proffessional version of the "User Bubble"
