Signature competition by Lou on 06-20-2007 at 11:06 PM

I've seen this done on a few other forums in the past, and since I know there are quite a few people on these forums that are interested in Photoshop and similar programs, I thought it would be worth a try.

What you have to do is make an image that would be a reasonable size (would fit in any signature on this forum). You can be as creative as you like, as long as it's still appropriate.

The winner won't get anything, it's just for fun. Just try and make the nicest possible image. You can enter multiple times.

After a decent number of signatures has been submitted, I'll go through the posts of the thread to see which ones seemed more popular (the ones which got the most number of positive comments) and I'll hold a poll to see which one was better.

Good luck, and have fun!

Edit: I'd just like to add, you are not obligated to use the signature at any given time. In fact, it's better if it's one nobody has seen before. Also, please only post signatures that you actually put effort into, not just something done in Paint. Thanks;)

If this turns out to be popular, I'll maybe post another one sometime after the winner was chosen, and have a theme).

Edit: Apparently it was unclear...

Post your entries in this thread. Please keep the spam to a minimum, as to not get this thread moved to TnT.

Edit2: It'd be nice if you all gave a little story on the sig (how you got the ideas for it and such) and some feedback on what's already been posted! :happy:

dont mean to spam or anything, but to people that are making/putting sigs on here, i think it would be nice for a simple explanation or something of how you did it and what with, just for members that might be wanting to know how =p good luck!

i know its one of my sigs in this forum but, ive since improved it. a lot of my sigs are rather minimalist, i guess thats because they're easier to do! :P but im still quite proud of this one.

RE: Signature competition by Lou on 06-23-2007 at 03:41 AM

Nice one ICD, unique effect. I like it :) It's shiny too:D

@ Jimbodude: Well, at least it wasn't made in paint.


RE: Signature competition by ryxdp on 06-23-2007 at 05:00 AM

My really bad attempt (I could probably do better, but I cba to find the Paint.NET Reflection plugin and the winner doesn't get anything in this competition):

RE: Signature competition by joey on 07-02-2007 at 08:14 PM

i can do quick simple ones in like 10 minutes no problem but ones that actually look like efforts gone into them, its so hard to do :P eg - this one

i wich there was more help and tutorials for gimp, its better than everyone thinks,.


RE: Signature competition by vaccination on 07-02-2007 at 08:17 PM
