Rate That Signature!

[Hazou]

@Ganbaru: 8/10 the colors compliment each other very well. I like how you seemed to have taken a still and able to add movement to it. I do think I agree with everyone else, the text is pretty hard to read and I think at least this is more of a personal taste. I think it detracts from what you do have going on.

@Kirito: 9/10 Very well balanced, its always hard to do signatures with multiple figures, but you have managed to balance them out very well.

@Isuckatwriting: 7/10 it's very simple. Not that it is bad, I think you have a nice border. But there really isn't much going on the signature.

@blacksheath: 7/10 J.J. Abrams got into your photoshop while you were away. I also think the font is to hard to read and there needs to be overall smoothness.

@Triple R: 8/10 very good composition. Once again lovely balance of the use of two characters. All though I agree the font is a little distracting with the white and ends up being the main focus of the signature.

@delorean220: 10/10 Hahahahahah! I remember that part of the comic and anime.

[BotchkosVertigo]

6/10
To me the colors in the background do not match the man, however they do look fine with each other. The right side is also plain and not shaded, which makes it seem unbalanced.

[ganbaru]

delorean2200 8,3/10 not bad
Hazou 8,4/10 good focus
BotchkosVertigo 7,9/10 the render and the background don't work well together.

[Om Nerabdator]

@Triple_R 9.1/10 2 hot girls in the same sig always scores high with me lol
@ganbaru 5/10 used way too much grainy effects, cant read the text
@BotchkosVertigo 6/10 gotta agree with ganbaru
@blakstealth 3/10 the lens flare and text makes the sig look really bad, maybe just have the picture by itself
@iSuckAtWriting 8.9/10 sometimes nice and simple just works! nice job. how do you get the text to show there?

[Krytonis]

It's been ages since I've been here..

ganbaru: 8.5/10 Good blending as always
Om Nerabdator: 9/10 Great quality
Hazou: 8/10 the quality seems slightly off and perhaps a border?
delorean2200: 8.6/10 ahh the classic takes me back
Triple_R: 8.8/10 good lighting

Please rate what you guys think of this!

Before you say anything, yes I've been trying to follow the footsteps of Patchy-sama, and I know some of you will see it as a bad way. I've been practising different techniques and tried using different ideas for the past couple weeks.

The one thing i didnt like about patchys last group of sigs is that they were unusable on this forum.
But the quality of your sigs i guess is about 80% of patchys quality which is saying alot about how good they are ^^

[Krytonis]

blakstealth: 6/10 It's a shame I can't really see the image due to the light flares, the text needs a bit of work too

They are pretty good, but it still needs work IMO. I'd rate all of them a 7/10

For starters, the cons. First, it lacks depth. Secondly, the background. IMO, the flow lacked. To be exact, The render doesn't transition well with the background. It feels like you just pasted them together and then added in effects. Lastly, the light effects. If you looked at it properly, you can see where the effects get cut off. I think you just didn't notice when you rotated it. Play with the eraser tool more.

On the plus side, the text is great. The font, color and its placing. Same goes with the render, Good placing!

I hope you don't take my criticism too much. We all have flaws. Let's work hard to lessen them
btw, There's nothing wrong with having an inspiration or a basis for your works. As long as you yourself made it, there's nothing to worry about.

EDIT:
I haven't done something in a long time. This makes me jealous a bit

[ganbaru]

Om Nerabdator 8,5/10 eye catching, especially because of the colors
Krytonis 8,7/10 there's not much more to say after Frailty's and Om Nerabdator's rating. As signatures, I think than they are too high, not because of the forum's rules but because the focus end up being too dispersed.

[Tasuke Shichiri]

ganbaru 10/10 ♥so sweet♥

[Triple_R]

delorean2200: 9/10 Hilarious sig. Nice classic anime reference. Well done!
Hazou: 8.6/10 The face is fine and well-positioned, but I agree with BotchkosVertigo about the background shading.
BotchkosVertigo 8.7/10 Charming dog/fox. Solid background
Om Nerabdator 8.8/10 Excellent color palette. Good checkerboard background. Good job matching it with your avatar.
Krytonis: 8.8/10 Good lighting to you too.
Frailty: 8.9/10 She looks awesomely imposing. Good dramatic sig.
Tasuke Shichiri: 8.8/10 Very pretty. I like the sky blue text.

Edit: Krytonis, your three BRS images look great to me, but judging by other comments on them, maybe I'm not the best person to judge this (of the criticisms other members made, the only one I'm really seeing myself is the lack of depth). Personally, I think either one would make an excellent desktop background if enlarged.


Thanks to everyone who gave feedback on my sig before. Especially to Om Nerabdator for appreciating it for the same reason I do.

[Akito Kinomoto]

Triple_R Their body language shows intertwined fingers. I would have moved one of the text lines to another corner though. 8.1/10
Tasuke Shichiri Slight quality issue, it could use a border. 7.8/10
ganbaru Painting, water color, delicious. 8.4/10
Frailty Widescreen effect, maybe the text could use its own border? 8.2/10
Krytonis Has just enough balance with the text placement. 8.3/10
Om Nerabdator A picture that busy should be nothing but a clusterfuck, but it works. 8.3/10
BotchkosVertigo Borderless look working. 8.25/10
Hazou Bring up the focus if you can, and a widescreen effect might accentuate his look more. 8/10
delorean2200 I just thought of Ore no Inuyasha. Damn it. 8.4/10

[Dist]

^It's okay but doesn't really catch your attention as it features no special effects, and you can barely make out the text from the bg. 6/10

Ps. I see the thread is still quite dead

[Triple_R]

Dist: 8.8 Great fiery sig. But then, I am biased, as red is my favorite color, and your sig has a lot of glorious red. Is that sig based on any anime show?

This thread's activity (or lack thereof) probably depends a lot on how many people are trying out new sigs at any given time.

From what I can tell, a fair number of people turn over their sigs once every few months, often in response to a new anime show. Right now we're about half-way through an anime season, so most new sig changes based on new anime shows probably happened 2 to 4 weeks ago. You'll probably see this thread pick up a bit early in the Summer season.

[delorean2200]

Dist: 8.9/10 its a nice sig though the white part of the border sort of feels out of place imho in the overall image.

[ganbaru]

Dist 8,7/10 I like the background very much.
delorean2200 8,2/10 the girls don't look as if they are part of the same picture than the background at all.

[ArabianLuffy]

Triple R: 6.9\10
delorean2200: 5\10
ganbaru: 7\10

[delorean2200]

ganbaru: 8.3/10 hmm.... i hope i formulate this right, i like the colors but the texturized effect gives the image a bit of a low quality effect sort to speak, especially the render imho.
ArabianLuffy: 8.6/10 nice blend there.

[ganbaru]

ArabianLuffy 8,8/10 looking great, remind me of some of Patchy's early work.
delorean2200 8,3/10 have the same issue than your previous one

You're partially right, but there's also the obvious fact that there's way less active members posting.. Or is it just for this thread in particular? Back in the day when I was active too, this thread would have several replies per day. Now you have to be lucky to get one reply per week. Also the similar Avatar thread is completely dead now ..

The signature rotation for me has been characters from Elsword (it's a 2D game) for quite few months now. This time's no different. So not really an anime, no. Props to rikikai who made this and all the others too. These were made for another forum with much bigger size, so the AS version doesn't really do them justice imo.

@ganbaru .. 7/10. Too much white as well as text to my liking.

@ArabianLuffy .. That looks pretty damn nice even though I don't really like Pokemon. The style seems patchy-ish .. Coincidence? 8/10
