Rate That Signature!

[Kuroi Hadou]

haladflire65: 9.3/10: AC for the win!

@Rennir: Cropped the edges; better?

[KuroKoneko]

Mmm, I hope not to sound too rude, but, well, everyone's signatures all look a like in a way... Maybe you guys should try to spice it up and make it more original? I'll give everyone a critique... I do not really need one because I just made a .gif of the show. ^^

@ganbaru: I love Hakurei Reimu. I've been obsessed with touhou for 4 years and knew about it for 7! I am actually planning to cosplay her. ^^ You have good tastes!

Spoiler for Your critique:

Image: Nice shot, it's cropped well and is in a nice position. [4/5]
Coloring: The coloring you used made the image a bit too warm, it doesn't match your icon and makes the overall signature seem low quality and blurred. The background mixes with her face too much and takes away from her artistic pose and her naturally beautiful coloring (red, white, black). [3/5]
Text: The text seems very... unprofessional? It's a font that comes preinstalled on the computer and it's just slapped on. There's no outline, shading, etc. and it's in a very popular place. It takes away from the artistic aspect of the picture too. [1/5]
Overall: It's a good signature, but it doesn't look like you used your full potential (your avatar is perfect!). Overall I'd give it a 3/5. Good job!

@Flinch: There isn't much I can really say about this due to the fact all you added was text, but I love Saya no Uta, and the image art is great! The only problem with it, is that it has .jpg artifacts. You should start saving in high quality .png. Overall, I give you a 2/5.


@Rennir: Cute text! I like how you set that up~! It's simple and clean!


@delorean2200: I absolutely adore your signature! Let me give a huge review~!

Spoiler for Your critique:

Image: Your image is adorable and looks great with the background. The shadow-like affect is a bit distracting and takes away from the signature, though. [4/5]
Color: The color you used is great. It looks like a happy, young girl is returning home to make an apple pie! [4/5]
Text: The text is one of the biggest problems I have with your signature image. The names you put on don't match the overall theme of the picture. You should have tried a smaller text for your username and put it near the bottom of the skirt (with lowered occupancy of course), and as for her name, you should have put it directly under Lion Days and used a bit of a smaller font and gave it a soft, small outline. But, I loved the place you put Lion Days, it was a great spot. [2.5/5]
Overall: I love your signature and the links you put below are in great positions! The only problem I have with the set up is that the little trollthingiis don't match and make it a bit distracting. But, great job! You've probably been making signatures for awhile now! Your overall rating is 4/5!

@Hooves: Ooo~ A Shana fan! I have a poster of her. Kugimiya Rie ftw~?

Spoiler for Your critique:

Image: Very, very nice! The only problem I have is that the fire is lower quality than the Shana image so it's a bit... distracting. I really like how you used a real place as a background image, though. The tree roots falling over the building is very artistic. [4.5/5]
Colors: It looks as if Shana just finished a major battle! I love it. It goes well together. I like how you made around her more purpley to match her hair color, too! [4.5/5]
Text: Perfect. [5/5]
Overall: Amazing. Great job! Overall I give you a 4.7/5!

@Haladflire65: Ooo~ This is gunna be a fun one!

Spoiler for Your critique:

Image: I really love the image you chose, though I think you should have erased his left hand because it's a bit distracting. The background is also very nice! [3.5/5]
Colors: I love the colors! Base mixed with different shades of purple and pink! Very artistic and pretty! [5/5]
Text: I like it a lot! It's in a nice place and it's not distracting. I also like how you aligned text next to your signature too! [5/5]
Overall: A very nice signature! I love your color scheme, too~! Continue being awesome! Overall give you a 4.5/5!

@Kuroi Hadou: Wow! This one is beautiful!

Spoiler for your critique:

Image: The first thing I noticed is that around her feels very cluttered. It's a good shot, but maybe you should have used a different background image? The left-side of the image feels the most cluttered. [3/5]
Colors: Beautiful! I love how you added black to the sides, it really draws your attention to her face looking at you! It's nice~ It reminds me of fall! [4.5/5]
Text: Great! I love how you made the K all big! The only thing I don't like is how close it is to her. Maybe you should have moved it a bit down and to the right? [4.7/5]
Overall: A beautiful signature! I love your designs~ Overall I give you a 4.2/5!

That was a lot of fun! I hope I didn't offend any of you! ><

[Kuroi Hadou]

KuroKoneko: 8.5/10: Interesting loop, but maybe re-arrange it so she's just sticking her tongue out and pulling it back in?

I really wish I could take credit, but it belongs to Patchy. It was a gift from her.

Thank you so much! I will do that right now~!

Waa! Tell her she's amazing at making signatures for me! <3

[ganbaru]

Kuroi Hadou 8,8/10 good effects
KuroKoneko 8,6/10 too bad it isn't a real loop

@ KuroKoneko, I perfectly know than I could have done better. For this serie I am looking more about variation; differents kind of signatures ( Almost monochrome, colorful, selective desaturating , older looking, pup-out, etc... ) artwork from different artists, different ''subjects''. And about the text, I always use the same font for the signature than I use, a good compromise betweem look and readability ( many might not read the text but I care about this factor a lot ).

[Haladflire65]

Kuroi: Nice work by Patchy, I think there're a bit too many sparkles IMO however. Seconding Renn-kun as well~ 8.7/10
KuroKoneko: Thanks for the detailed C&C I think yours can use a border and tweaking on the loop as Kuroi mentioned 8.6/10

[Tsuyoshi]

ganbaru: I feel that the sig is a little too saturated. If it was anything like your avatar, it would've been much better. But it's quite overall otherwise, and the focal is very well blended too, altho it does look a little over-sharpened in some areas - 7.5/10

KuroKoneko: I love the gif for this one. Normally I'm not big fan but this is really well done. My only gripe with it is that it's too big according to forum rules - 8/10

[Rennir]

KuroKorenko-8.6/10 Interesting...

[Kuroi Hadou]

Tsuyoshi: 9.5/10: Love the effects.

[calorie]

Kuroi Hadou 10/10

That just looks pro.

[ganbaru]

Kuroi Hadou 9,1/10 looking great
Slobodan 8,1/10 not bad

[delorean2200]

@KuroKoneko: thanks for the comment sorry can't rate your sig was removed :P, but one note though the reason i choose the text this way is that i don't like to cover the anime render/model itself with text :P and her name could have only been position better imho if it was under the "Days" part but unfortunately its to long and probably couldn't have been read right, so given this i choose them to have a bit of symmetry between them (the title, her name and my user name).

Kuroi Hadou: 9.8/10 simply put very nice sig.
Slobodan: 8.8/10 nice.

[Butter Fly]

^ 9.4/10 Nice pic What does the text mean?

[calorie]

Butter Fly 8/10

It's Fu-chan! The background and the overall color tone is not exactly fitting but okay.

[Rennir]

Slobodan-8.4/10 Interesting...

[Om Nerabdator]

@Rennir 8/10 a cute girl sleeping, hey thats worth 8 by itself!

[ganbaru]

matty543 8,4/10 did I rated this one before ?

[delorean2200]

Rennir: 8.7/10 cute but some of the circles mess up a bit the blending imho.

[Roduigez]

ganbaru: 9.2/10 love the mono-colour and the quote, but the chunck of blank space in the bottom right doesn't seem right.

[CMSensei]

Roduigez - 9/10 It does~
