Comments are always welcomed and advanced critique encouraged.

[holyalexander]

wow you got a great taste of color combination..

[Evil Rick]

I like your work with colors and text

[lsley]

Nice works!
But all of your sigs are over AS size
And I'd recommend to save your sigs with "save for web and devices" too.

[Emerald Emblem]

Wow, minimal size but maximum quality, Thanks for the tip.

Also Thank you holyalexander and Evil Rick. I'm happy for the compliments.

[ASR1FanSubs]

I like the first one Nice

[Cyz]

Ah, a Koumei sig? Very cute, I don't see any Koihime Musou sigs that much.

[Emerald Emblem]

Well there ain't much artwork around for Koihime Musou. It's a shame really for us Koihime Musou fans.

My newest signature, I just have a bit of a dilemma on which one I'll use, in this one I put Yuuki's name on the taco:


Also I decided to mimic the Saki Logo and put Yuuki's name on it, in the bottom corner:


Which one looks better?

[Chant]

I'd go with the 2nd one as well. Makes both, taco and text, easier to recognize.

I'm afraid I don't really know how to comment on the background and color picks, though.

[Emerald Emblem]

Well any comments I get are good to have, thank you.

[Rikimtasu]

Nice matching logo and text colour.
Well,the render on this:

It kind of too bright.Other looked fine,thought.

[Katocchi]

Well new episode of Saki means some new gifs:
This one is not Animesuki safe:


Here are animesuki safe Gifs:

I need more Yuuki goodness


I made some of Ikeda with a new border style. Which is better?

[Emerald Emblem]

Well sorry to bump this again, this time it's a sig which will be my new one, well my first and most awful effort I'll show you all:


Yeah, well I've made another version now, here we go, is it good enough now? (I wanna make it and put it up right away) I'm quite happy with this one actually:

[Urei]

Hm, why won't you try a little bit of blending over the edges? I'm positive it would benefit for the signature

Great work nevertheless

That's the only think holding my signatures back I think, I just need to learn how to blend it in.

There's too much brush space to the left. And the brush to the left of the stock is too big and makes it look like space. I like the rendering, but again, the pink outline looks choppy. Text is a bit out of place, but I like the colors and composition.
