DisturbedShifty Posted May 27, 2007 Share Posted May 27, 2007 ok so I am a nonice in the ways of photoshop, but I figured I would give this a shot. I made this sig because I have been playing a ton of Halo 3 Beta. I know the font colors aren't choice but I wanted a military feel to them. So other than that what do ya think?

BCBoy Posted May 27, 2007 Share Posted May 27, 2007 Not feelin' it.The BG seems to messy, I can't tell what's going on. Border is pretty cool, and nice job on the transparency. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chestnutz Posted May 27, 2007 Share Posted May 27, 2007 Pretty good for a first try. Like how you have the masterchief larger than the actual border erikas | go birds | dribbble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Border is pretty cool, and nice job on the transparency.I was going for a blur effect to give it more motion. But if you think it will look better I will drop it out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BCBoy Posted May 27, 2007 Share Posted May 27, 2007 I think it would look better if you put a different effect on the BG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do want to do something cool with the BG, but the only thing I could think of was blur. I am open to ideas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BCBoy Posted May 28, 2007 Share Posted May 28, 2007 I think something that fits the border would be best. So something crackly or something like that.Maybe use something like this:And set that layer at the top on overlay or soft light. Then mess around with colors, changing it so the whole sig flows better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DisturbedShifty Posted May 29, 2007 Author Share Posted May 29, 2007 Ok so I tweaked it. I got rid of the motion to the background like was suggested. Instead of using that cracked salt flat, I left the border alone. I liked that the way it is. If you look close enogh I used a set of brushes I downloaded and then used the emboss thing to give it the dept. The other changes were to the blue overlay I used. On another fourm they suggested I darken the background and change the stroke on the text to a black. So I did that, but for the blue overlay I used a gradient with a soft light filter, I think. Overall I like it much better than the first one. So here is the new one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BCBoy Posted May 29, 2007 Share Posted May 29, 2007 Much, much improved, I can actually tell what the BG is now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
