dragonpwnr99 Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 (edited) Recently all my old Image links broke. If you have a problem with a sig that I've made you in the past PM me and I'll sort it out! I'm currently taking requests! I suggest sending a PM as I don't check this thread that often. If you have suggestions don't hesitate to tell me. I'm looking to improve and get better.

Refined Suicide Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 I suggest you use better tutorials. You're trying to start up, but your not really getting it. It's good you're trying. Try to follow this tutorial: http://img21.imageshack.us/img21/1030/ninjadudetut.png Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dragonpwnr99 Posted September 13, 2010 Author Share Posted September 13, 2010 Will do thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joewl45 Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 I disagree slightly with Refined's choice of tut, I think it might be a little bit advanced for you at the moment. This a great compilation of tutorials for beginners/intermediates: http://graphicsninja.net/topic/3112972/1/#new Another great way to improve would be too sign up at graphicsninja.net, they have a really active community who'll give you feedback on your sigs and advice on how to improve.

dragonpwnr99 Posted September 13, 2010 Author Share Posted September 13, 2010 (edited) Thanks ill check out those tuts, thats kind of what i was thinking about refined's choice i tohught that was confusing ill try making another sig today EDIT: Where is a good place to get renders by the way?

dragonpwnr99 Posted September 13, 2010 Author Share Posted September 13, 2010 (edited) ok so ive been trying to get some more brushes for my GIMP program... i downloaded them but im suppossed to put it in a folder called brushes so GIMP can recognize it as a brush.... i can find this folder.... where would it be? EDIT: Never mind just found it Edited September 13, 2010 by dragonpwnr99 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BiffTech Posted September 14, 2010 Share Posted September 14, 2010 Honestly, the best thing you could possibly do right now is sign up to GN & check out Seedy's emporium... It has everything you need to know. If it dosn't, he'll be happy enough to add it for you lol EDIT: Whoops... sorry, thought this was in the media section for some reason, & not the gallery! lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dragonpwnr99 Posted September 14, 2010 Author Share Posted September 14, 2010 (edited) hah just got this one don for my second attempt ata popout sig i dont think it is half-bad personally.... what do you guys think? be honest http://i962.photobucket.com/albums/ae103/DragonPwnr99/LinkPopoutSig.png I was just messing around with the different options to see what they did and made this one, pretty basic... http://i962.photobucket.com/albums/ae103/DragonPwnr99/CarmineSig.png Edited September 14, 2010 by dragonpwnr99 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joewl45 Posted September 14, 2010 Share Posted September 14, 2010 It's a definite step up from you're earlier work, you're starting to get the hang of it The first sig looks quite nice, good background and nice pop out effect. The second isn't quite as good as the focal has been darkened down too much, but it's not a horrible attempt by any means. My advice to you now is just keep on reading as many tutorials as possible, it's by far the best way to become decent at sig making. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dragonpwnr99 Posted September 14, 2010 Author Share Posted September 14, 2010 Thanks Joewl ill definitly keep reading some tuts and hopefully ill get better The second one there was mostly just me messing around with the new brushes i got from deviantart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dragonpwnr99 Posted September 21, 2010 Author Share Posted September 21, 2010 Hey just made this sig! personaly i think this sig looks tight! what do you guys ( and gals) think? You can rate it if you want http://i962.photobucket.com/albums/ae103/DragonPwnr99/BumbleBeeSig3.png Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lilysintrigue Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 I like the smudge effects and such on the character, but personally I think the background is a bit to busy and does not flow well with the character. Maybe you could try and not have yellow in the background and do like a red, blackish-charcoal color, with the silverish grey smudge effects that would look smoother... but then again its up to your personal preference! But you are definitely improving loads!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dragonpwnr99 Posted September 23, 2010 Author Share Posted September 23, 2010 Thats Lily for the comment i see what you mean by the backround taking away from bumblebee, i dont have any previous copies of the sig and i dont really want to remake it so im going to leave it as it is im going to start saving different copies of my sigs from now on so i can change text if someone else wants to use em or change the backrounds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dragonpwnr99 Posted September 24, 2010 Author Share Posted September 24, 2010 OK so i have come to a writers block kind of thing right now and i cant think of a good theme for a sig... i want to try somthing more advanced than the other basic stuff i have done. If you could post some ideas that would be great If you could post a link to a more advanced GIMP tut that would be good too i have been having trouble finding some, and lastly if you want me to make a sig for you just post here and i will try Thanks everybody!

Joewl45 Posted September 25, 2010 Share Posted September 25, 2010 http://www.gimptalk.com/forum/topic/Blending-Colours-And-Lighting-17628-1.html This is probably the most useful tut I ever found for GIMP, it features some really good techniques which aren't too advanced but really help to improve your sigs. Try doing some of the other official tutorials on gimptalk as well, they'll definitely help you improve. Oh and learn about c4ds as well, they're very useful Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
