these are some new ones, some old ones in this blablabla...etc.

I'll keep this updated from time to time

Please tell me what you think.

I like the LP, some of the sigs are too monotone. The one with the hot chick you need to see her a bit better as it is too dark and like I said monotone.

 

[DeletedUser]

lately, I'm sticking to monotone, new style, it looks more professional...in my opinion, although it isn't by far

Try to go for more... action-filled renders. In a lot of cases the ones you use are just standing idle and not portraying any movement. With an action-filled render, you can get much better depth and flow.

For instance... http://www.totallygn.com/wp-content...ions/iron_spider_render_6-copy-1680-x-948.jpg

I know it's a jpg, but it's just an example.

Total crap, any "pro" will tell you a still render is fine. Action is sometimes easier, but as you say your going for a more "professional look", so you can make still renders work just as well. Depth is not dependant on your render, nor is flow. If I have a picture of a dude standing still with his head tilted to the top left corner I already have flow. There is no action whatsoever.

Alrighty:
Your text is off in EVERY image.
TEXT RULES:
Rule no. 1: Make it subtle
Rule no. 2: Don't tilt it
Rule no. 3: Don't make it complex
Rule no. 4: Basically, if it draws attention from the focal, it fails, get rid of it.

You've used next to no c4d's, which is fine, but sometimes they do add flare to work, your composition isn't good... Quite honestly all I see is a picture, with a background and some text. Occasional smudging or something to that effect too. The things you should work on AT THIS STAGE are your flow and your focals. For example, in tag no. 9 (Rauly one, 3rd from bottom), your duplication of the render draws attention away from the focal, and you have "lines" directing to the right hand side/middle of the tag whereas your focal is on the left hand side. --> Insert text criticism here.

Firstly, i never said flow or depth were dependant on the render at all. Learn to read. I said with certain renders depth and flow can be better achieved. And i never said still renders weren't fine, i just said action ones are better.
Secondly, yes, head tilted to the left. If you have a render just standing idle facing forwards there is no immediate suggestion of flow at all and you have to half make it yourself.

And lastly, i never said i was 'pro', as you say. I just gave him a tip that i find helpful myself. You have a problem? Great. I don't care.

I didn't say you said shit, I simply pointed out that you don't need action to achieve those things.

thanks everyone.

I'll try those guides, text is hard, still practicing

Text is the most difficult part of a sig... Sometimes it's better to just leave it out?

 

[DeletedUser81336]

No, text is also very important to a signature.

 

[DeletedUser]

No, text is also very important to a signature.

Whilst I can agree to this, text can completely ruin a signature if not done correctly.

 

[DeletedUser]

added three more signatures...all spiderman ones.

thank you dragonwarrior, the text part was helpful. tell me what you think of the text in the 2nd last one...the white spiderman one

 

[DeletedUser]

EDIT: Out of the spidermen sigs:

3rd from bottom isn't great, I would try taking a 250px black brush and just gently brushing around the sig, to help send attention to the focal.
2nd from bottom is better, however your composition is a little off: Black, white, and red?? The top right corner also detracts from your flow, other than that it's alright. Your text was good here.
Bottom is by far your best overall, text a little on the complex side, and perhaps a little messy in areas but good nevertheless

Am I right in saying you've already made an improvement?
Keep at it man, you'll have the hang of sig making in no time PM me if you need any help, I'll be willing to try give it

 

[DeletedUser]

thanks. which text is better the last one or this?

 

[DeletedUser]

Quite honestly, neither
I understand the criteria you had to fill was "Text: Something Intelligent", which is a bit much for a one liner...
Try this, perhaps..
Put:
.........Something
Intelligent
Like that, with a blue-ish colouring, 70% opacity and a slight outer glow... Place it somewhere nice aswell Possibly above your "rays of power" vibe. DON'T use a cartoon-ish font... Something pretty serious.
You get my drift?

 

[DeletedUser]

yup yup...will do!

 

[DeletedUser]

Alrighty, so if I had to put text on your sig, I would have probably done it along the lines of:

(Sorry was like 3 mins in PS... But you get the idea? )
((Get rid of your text layer at the bottom, obviously.. ))

 

[DeletedUser]

ya, no problem.

I did what you said, I like it the best

 

[DeletedUser]
