yeah, i was thinking that myself...
the only problem i had was.. if i had it with no cut-off it was too big (imo) and without the transparency it looked too cluttered...
but the critique is much appreciated

well i made a small edit, following the suggestion.
I attempted to not cut the top-off, not make the sig dramatically bigger and not make the render dramatically smaller. So i increased the size a bit, made the render a bit smaller... however there was still quite a bit cut-off.. and i didn't want to change the sizes anymore since it would change the dynamics too much. So i took a bit of creative licensing and warped the middle spike a bit... and your only gonna notice if you look closely (and know what shadow should look like). Hopefully its an improvement.

Well the whole point of having it semi-transparent is it blends with which ever skin you use
Slightly Wonky Robob 08 Feb 2008
Little update, made the BG more transparent for greater contrast, and replaced the font/style/name. Better? worse?
EDIT: gave the BG a bit of a gradient so it blends in better

Well I am struggling to see your first one for some reason?!
It's not quite transparent a enough for me tbh. I can still see the line all the way around. If that is what you wanted, GR8, but not my taste. Liking the idea though bud!

Hell Yeah! That edit is MUCH BETTA!!!
But tell you what, be bold and push it beyond your current canvas limit as it's cutting off the very top of his helmet (err )

perhaps you could blend the top of the graphic on the left just a bit more, otherwise, awesome

I actually think that the C4D works as it is atm. It helps to ring fence it, but it's only imo.
Slightly Wonky Robob 09 Feb 2008
My one main problem atm is i don't think the render is bold enough, so i'm gonna remake it from scratch, hopefully that should do it

Are we all turning into Opthamologists or something?
Nice work as always Bob!

@Wizard- Warbz started it, then I ripped him off, and now everyone is... I still like mine best though

needed a new sig, and here's what i came up with...
designed for the soviet skin (since that's what i use and i'm selfish >=) ) although still looks fairly decent in ES blue imo
thoughts? criticisms?
EDIT: Small update, fixed the colouring on the hair in the bottom left
EDIT2: Since my avatar didn't really go with my new sig, i made a matching avatar
