Have you had much experiance with photoshop?


the attachment I sent is to show what I like. Im not a fan of hers (i think shes a singer?)
Anyways Good use of the eyes, definatly my favorite.

Try doing a more simple design, more classy, less flashy.

Just my 2cents.

Good work!

Maybe some day I will put my work up for critique.

It looks like your having a good time! The way to get better is by doing what you're doing...doing changing and trying new things.
Awesome start, welcome to the stress-free-world-of-Photoshop.

in my experience it was better for me not to change the hue/saturation of the render in my sigs. i see you did in a few of yours and it looks good but i found it better to just make a background that flows with the original colors of the render instead of trying to blend my render to my background, but yes good work with the eyes looks good. and for a three day user GREAT JOB in a month youll be making sigs like the best of em.

hey whats up! your off to a great start. the only thing i would suggest is try not to make things to symetrical. the asymetrical things you have on here are aweosmse! keep the eye moving that is the key!!!
anyway i like the colors your using and all . but yeah the more you do it te better you will be.
