I like the sig more than the avatar. Too much white in the avy imo.

Weird. I like the avatar more than the sig.

@Karnage - Hm, well I don't know if you know this, but I want the animation playing in my sig
And, I might just take a clip from one of the movies instead of that animation, 'cuz it doesn't really look very good with it. (And I can't think of any background colour, instead of white, that would look OK)

Believe me, for me, this is amazing!

Hm, cool

Well, i got Image Ready, and it's all very confusing. I did a little test run and this is what came out of half an hour of fiddling around and seeing what each button did. All it is is a picture, not really meant to be a sig or a wallpaper. Any advice for one who wants to learn how to be good at digital artistry? Obviously i need to work on the flow of the picture.

Well, first of all don't use ImageReady, use Photoshop =D

Okay, i did my very first sig in Photoshop. It is a sig for another forum, and i'll most very likely be making better versions of it, because i really like the render i used here.

Well I did a little bit of work on colour. I got rid of the "morning" shade a bit, coloured his eyes silver, and sharpened it a tiny bit.

I still can't figure out how to add a movie. I guess I'll keep on googling.

You could use GIMP GAP (Gimp Animation Package, an addon to GIMP) to import a small video (10 seconds or so) and then export as a gif, but this would take quite a while when exporting.

Okay so after messing around with photoshop some more i made a really cool Ironman sig.

I can't find GAP Adreniline. I've googled and I just can't find it. Can you post a link?

I got it.

ftp://ftp.gimp.org/pub/gimp/plug-ins/v2.2/gap

Ya but that doesn't help which one is it? Adreniline gave me a link... here.

And here's a pic I made from a screen I took in America's Army. Nothing special.


(Ya that's me dead on the ground )

Yeh, the link I gave you, download the zip file.

Nice pic, you been using layers?

Try generating flames under Filters>Render>Nature>Flame

Make sure to change the background and foreground colors before you generate a flame, and don't zoom into the flame to far our you will be waiting quite a while.

The blurring is ok, too bad that AA hasn't got the best graphics

I didn't make it in GIMP actually. I just copied the people out of the picture, blurred the whole thing and then pasted the people back on top.

^Hm... Different.

I worked on my sig today.
It got really distorted on Photoucket, and ImageShack wouldn't take it 'cuz it was too big, so I had to upload it to my site. I couldn't figure out how to use the 10dpi thing either, so... I just kept it the way it was. It's really gif-ish...

There's still some white around the edges of the animation, but I had to go through 185 frames to get rid of most of the white so...
Comments?

Cool but I think too gif-ish. I'd rather no dancing spidey than like that.

Made a new sig:



First time with GIMP.
