I have to say your current sig kicks ass. Loving it. The poster-like stylized colors, the layout, and how it captures my attention.

that is what i meant to say before.

[BillyChaka]

Fresh off the presses, baby. Any comments on this one? I mean, I think I need a new font.

You have a really good sig style, just that you should resize them a bit. This one has a more Oldie-feel to it. Fonts : Da Font

[Slightly Wonky Robob]

a very good overall look, but...

1) its a bit on the big-size
2) there is a fine line on the left-hand side, it looks a bit off

8.5/10

[BillyChaka]

Thank you the ever-so-quick response, gentlemen. I'll be sure to get on those changes asap.

Hey it looks Nice!

[BillyChaka]

Isn't it obvious?

[Sgt. Nuker]

Very well done Billy. It has a newspaper feel to it, but the text could stand to look a little more ragged. Maybe use a "destroyed" font? Overall though, it looks very nice. Simple, but effective.


My best,

I believe it's lacking stroke on the left side unless that's intentional. Nice as always of course, although I have the sinking feeling you just put some text over a cropped picture and added a black border. Thus there's not really much I can say.

A little big, but the flow's all there and it's a unique style.

God, you know, that's exactly how I feel on every sig. I mean, I look up tons of pictures, and when I finally get something to work with, and I can't do anything with it.

And yeah, that side on the left was left with no border on purpose.

Well, you could cut out the background and leave the foreground characters in and make another background, or edit the current one.

[Sic]

Yeah , pretty much like that. You can change the hue/saturation levels, you can add a color balance, then, you can use brushes too.

[BillyChaka]

That's the original render. I didn't know anything else I could do with it, so I used the "faded photo" effect.



I'll try and get on that whole "editing the background" thing. Thanks for the advice.

[zill]

I like the render good job ...and the background looks pretty nice

[BillyChaka]

I've been trying to make a sig out of this render for a whiiiile. So... What dy'all think?

[Whitey]

Beats most of yours (no offense)!

8/10. Very nicely done.

[Sgt. Nuker]

You made the right decision making that your new sig. Well done Billy.


My best,

Nuker

[BillyChaka]

300, the graphic novel version. I really liked it, so I made a sig about it.

EDIT: Oops. A little big. Gotta resize that...

This is SPARTAAAAAAAAA!!

Well, you get the drift. You continue to set yourself apart from the rest Billy. Nicely done.


My best,

Nuker

[Athena]

That's pretty cool Billy, I like how you placed the font diagonally. What kind of font is it, btw? Just curious heh.

[BillyChaka]

Well, I hope I'm not too late to answer. It's called "Ancient Geek" on dafont.com.

[Luzifer_MGS]

Uh... Do you by chance still make avys for people who ask nicely?

(If so, I´d like to do so...) XP

[BillyChaka]

Gimmie a render. I'll get you there.

[Soul]

Hey billy can you do me a favour and cut the render of the Littlebird on the left out for me, I'm not good enough to do it and I want it in a sig I'm planning on making.
