sean_e_b Posted February 10, 2008 Share Posted February 10, 2008 A lot better on the cutout, so nice job in that department, although you may have a bit too much feathering if I had to say anything. The background takes too much away from Landry. You want your eyes too naturally draw towards where the main focus should be and that should be on Landry and his name second. So tone the background down and it should get better. Oh and get rid of those straight white lines, it makes it look like you made a mistake and forgot to press undo. It's also too big. Not only do smaller sigs tend to look better, but that sig also is against forum rules as it must be less than 550x200. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

InsaneBoost Posted February 10, 2008 Share Posted February 10, 2008 You're getting better man, the background kinda takes away from Landry, might want to set the focal point on him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sean_e_b Posted February 10, 2008 Share Posted February 10, 2008 thanks dude, you're always around to comment my stuff,lol... It seems you're the only reason I've been checking the graphics forum lately. do you think this will work: duplicate the field layer and drag it on top of the other 3 and turn down the oppacity? I'm not sure if that will work or not. My advice would be to just mess around with some things until you can fix it. oh and i double checked the size. it is 526x200 so im safe Actually it's 562x200, but people on the board get away with much worse so I doubt they'll notice it anyway.

sean_e_b Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 The new version is a nice improvement. Nice job getting rid of that white line. The lettering definately stands out more, although the background is still a little distracting. Because of the colorful background the sig seems to have really hard edges. To make this more gradual you may want to add a border or possibly circle of the edges, the border may be good enough. It's a lot better, but to be honest the background still isn't too thrilling. You might want to try making the field a little more noticable and take some transparacy away from the layer above it. Than you can erase the out of bounds line wants it gets past Landry's arm to keep that from becoming a problem again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RocketCitySkins Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 Definitely not an expert here. I just want to add that, to me, Landry stills blends too much in with the background. I don't really know how to tell you to make him stand out. Best way I know to put it is he needs more depth from the background. But I really like what you have done.
