Narwhal and Illithian's Sig Thread

[Gr8trainer]

@Sabeta: I PMed you about the c4ds

@Anndarknae: np

@Gr8trainer: I'll start on it.

EDIT: Enjoy:

Tell me if you want any changes.

Thanx alot dude. Again Kudos to u.

[Sabeta]

I decided to try out a larger image today. This is for another site I frequent, where I have my own art shop.

[Toffeuy]

Lol, it looks good, now i'm wondering if we should make one of these... we're just too lazy. The font is a bit hard to read and a little error is the fifth point under "Signature Requests" has 'appearance' spelt wrong.

[Sabeta]

Photoshop has no spell check T.T

As for the font, it needs to be that specific font, but any tips to make it easier to read?

[Toffeuy]

Lol, I can't give any specific directions from looking at it, I normally would try random stuff to try to make it look better. But I suppose you can apply an outer glow of black (or a dark colour) to the text and try the blending options (of the glow) to see which makes it easiest to read.

EDIT: Actually, I don't think that would help because what I mean hard to read is that the font is squished side by side...

[Sabeta]

Yeah, I'm just gonna go ahead and use Visitor TTK, it should work for this.

[ieges]

I would really like to try my hand at signature making. Could I become a beginner artist?

Beware, I'm not that good

[Toffeuy]

Well that can pass as a beginner artist, you can start taking requests and i'll back them up if the requester isn't satisfied. We'll have to wait for Narwhal's opinion for you to officially become one but I guess I have the authority to temporarily make you, right Narwhal?

Ok, if someone makes a request I will let you decide if you should let me have a go at it

I'll try my best.

Anyone like my avatar? I made it myself

[Xenom]

hey can i have one with these six pokemon

Ninetales, Charizard, Metagross, Cradily, Dragonite and Conkeldurr

not sure which way to put but if you could try have 3 on each side or have them look like they are overlapping with a black background and a neon coloured blue text saying Xenom

[Narwhal]

Sure! Welcome to the club! I'll add you to the first post. By the way, has anyone heard from Illithian or Spartan Pikachu lately?

I did it all by myself

I was away when Spartan joined, and I've yet to even meet Illithian.

[Toffeuy]

Well I sent you 4 a PM before and from my 'Track messages' button, Illithian and Spartan Pikachu still haven't read my message yet, and on Spartan Pikachu's profile, you can see when he was last active. Can't see when Illithian was last active though, he's probably set on Invisible Mode.

And nice job there ieges, but next time remember to not use pokemon with the white pixels. I forgot where you can find a collection of those pictures but you can search a pokemon on Bulbapedia and download the image they have there.

Thank you! I was going to ask where to find png's. I just used google images. I got photoshop working again though (even though it crashed when I was almost done)

@Xenom: If you want a revised version without those white pixels, tell me and I will gladly redo it for you

[Sabeta]

Using the "Blur" tool, or the Eraser set to ~25-50% would have cleaned up the edges sufficiently, and any slight errors could be covered up with "Outer Glow"

Or refine edge, possibly?

[Sabeta]

I've never used that tool, so I wouldn't know. I tend to not let Photoshop do things on it's own though, as with Content-Aware and other similiar features, it tends to mess things up and results in more work than just doing it manually.

[Kitty80]

can somebody please make me a signature and an avatar, i really like igglybuff and jigglypuff and everything pink lol, as long as its pink, looks cute and sparkly and has Kitty80 on it i will be happy, can you put igglybuff and jigglypuff on my signature but only jigglypuff on my avatar please. i looked at a lot of these and i really like all the art work you guys are doing, i hope you can help me out, thank you.

[ieges]

@Kitty80

This one was fun to do! I am a beginning artist, so if you want someone else's version instead, I completely understand.

@ieges: Wow, you're learning really quick. Just note that the avatar might be too big for the forums. PP will automatically reduce its size and that will lower its quality, so it's better if you can crop it down to around at most 120x120 pixels and resize Jigglypuff to make it smaller.

@Narwhal and Sabeta: The time of the year has come where exams are up so i'll be inactive for the next 4-5 weeks. In this time, I won't be able to make sigs so you guys will have to make them yourselves or with ieges. And ieges, you can ask them two for help if you need it. I will be back, but that's gonna be after exams are finished, so until then, good luck!

Thanks for giving me the dimensions of the avatar! I was wondering what size to make it. I'll help keep everything floating, since I check the forums regularly.

[Kitty80]

wow they are great thanks, should i wait until you resize the avatar or just use that one

dont worry about what i just said it looks alright but i cant get my signature to appear
