i have a few, now the text isnt to bad my most concerning thing about this sig is the fact that your render was cut out without trying to do a good job/ it looks bad its very choppy. the stars are cool and the lightning looks decent, try blending the QB into the background that might fix the choppyness of the background. also with the text make it larger and more visible, being a lighter color not so dark. dark on dark isnt good for text atleast i dont think so. and i think it would be cool if you made a layer for every star and blended each one differently into the background that would be cool. But once again the thing i dislike the most is the QB's choppyness. is this one of your first sigs? if so its pretty good for one of your first. |

yeah. This one of my first sigs. First time I've used the magnetic lasso. I tried magic wand. But it didnt work. I think you're right about the chopiness. Ill fix it up in later sigs. Thanks for your help! |

hey whats up man. ok here are some thinkgs you can do to make this more intresting, right now its a little boring just because of the layout. symetry can be a bit boring. you have the figure on the left, a divide in the middle, then your text on your right. aswell as starts in the background that are symetrical. try playing around with symetry a little bit, try asymetry (ill post a name of an awesome book that can help when i get home)
the starts look pretty low resolution so that takes away from the effect. i would maybe have them not as bright as the figure. also this text is really boring and says nothing to reflect the image. you would want a cool powerfull and fast pced text. this is to skinny and tall. maybe somthing fatter or somthing also i would do the text like that cowboys logo. do the text grey with a blue stroke, and then add a white outerglow of somesort. . remember that you want the eye to flow around a compasition so just by playing with the layout, you can change the way the peice reads completly. also when you apply an outerglow, try not to leave it on the default settings. play with the sliders, change the color. etc. this will make it look more professional.
anyway keep up the good work and let us see what your changing etc etc.
