how bad does it look?
It looks nice, but I'd never frequent a board in which participants used such huge signatures, it'd be slow to view pages and detract from the real content.
I actually wretched twice after viewing your... thing. Once immediately, and once, some time later, having recollected the occasion. The first wretch was not really because of your artwork (which I think is pretty good); I think it was something I ate (I've been trying sugar free candy to lose weight). The second wretch I believe was from the association I obviously made with the first wretch and your artwork. Just thinking about wretching is nasty... ouh... I'm starting to gag again.
Make the letters white and give them a little bit of faint glow, and the height of it can be cropped down a bit. Nice art! Also I think you could do with a better font...make it look as though the words were superimposed right out of some holy scripture rather than re-written in cursive. I'll show you what I mean later tonight when i get home if u dont get what I mean.
i think i know wat u mean but plz do show me an i used that font b/c i dont have one that really fits it an its that big b/c i forgot to resize it
an try for the input
Can't read it. Pretty though, but I agree with Craven.
resized
an if u still cant read it it says
"An we will pull..
The feathers from the..
Wings of the angels.."

As a consumer, one learns to pay more attention to the quality of the contents than to the packaging.
or not.
Personally, I find "sigs" to be, in general, more of an affectation and a triviality than anything SIGnificant.
(P.S.- that pic of a black cat under my nom de plume... is there because it looks uncannily like a cat I've had for 14 years. Its mother lived with a friend of mine but was struck by a car and died leaving a litter of six 14-day-old kittens... I hand-fed them for a week before we could locate an amenable adoptive nursing mother. Having bonded with the runt of the litter, I eventually took custody of the wee slicket beastie... and it has been an affectionate companion ever since... not to mention a seriously skilled mouser.)
can someone tell me wat the above is about b/c i dont got a clue
Vex, Magus is just attacking the whole concept of sigs...and in fact the entire mentallity of internet forum dwellers.
You have made the sig much worse in your edit. It's way too small! The colors looked nicer before...and although the font can be read now, it looks ugly! Here is what I think you should do (which is manily to resize the proportions to something where the length and width look good together)
i see wat u mean
im new to makein sigs an paintshop im still trytin to learn everything
thats why i asked for input an tyvm for it (its odd to say the lest to
have done pen an payper for years an then come to this)
The dots you have after the first and second line really bother me. What are they accomplishing?
they are not dots..
an they are there to show its bein quoted
I was referring to the original sig. I hadn't noticed you removed them on this page.
Gee, stuh, if you think my criticism that language/writing skills have been traded off in favor of gimmickry and "bells'n'whistles" constitutes "an attack"...
Well, Ex-CU-U-SE ME!
ill try 2 B mor "wit d progrm"...
(rolls eyes)
Magus,
I don't see the logic in your opinion. But regardless, Vex is one of the most talented artists on here (assuming that the works he has been posting is all original), and I think we owe him nothing but respect for that, regardless of how he talks.
stuh, to my eye it looked like some animé artist/studio from Japan had their work "appropriated".
A snip here, a paste there, photoshop in the "quote"... hmmnn, I guess the PC has re-defined "Art".
Pardon me, but when I compare Disney's "Fantasia" with the CGI stuff proliferating everywhere, I have to cast my vote in favor of the Disney animators.
They had SOME originality...
that is the reason I dislike Design Schools that are popping up everywhere + PhotoShop - everyone can make something and call themselves an "artist" or a "graphic designer"
All present company excluded.
It is just my peeve, has been for a long time.

right well, I was commenting on the airbrush and anime skills...the photoshoping is not very good.
