One good example of it, is this sig.. the boat's outline is covered in it, and you can see it on the tip of Link's cap.



And around Sephy.



The edges of the alien are very unsmooth, probably a blur would work here as well:



Now your sig itself can use some touching up. There's tons of evidence of white noise around the pastes, and your text isn't lined up very well.. it's cut off at the edge of the image... if you're having problems with the automatic placement thing, just zoom in, because then it renders it useless.



Here's a touch up idea, but since I don't have the original, it probably looks bad. What the problem with sigs is, most of the time you want to cram it up with a lot of stuff you like, and sometimes it isn't very clean. What you want to do is, either have one or two main subjects, or have everything in the same colour scheme or theme. Also, a border wouldn't hurt.



Overall your work is not bad but you can do better. I know it.

Oh, and Stu.. you're getting there. Keep it up.
Dyne, the left part of Sephy's face isn't noise... It's his hair... It's supposed to be like that.

As for Link's hat, I zoomed in 1000% and deleted all the pixels. That "tip" that you see isn't Link's hat... It's actually a star near the moon.

Also, I don't really like to include borders. I used to before, but now it's just... sort of useless. But thanks for the help, Dyne.

Ok, I'll try. But I really like Dyne's sig, it fits in perfectly, but I'll try to make one and you can decide.

Game, I went ahead and decided to make something very basic for you. If nothing else, it'll be a way for you to give further ideas of what you want done with those two pictures.

In Green:



In Black:



Or, if this is similar to what you were looking for, then feel free to use it.


Hmm, in the green one, he looks a bit like The Hulk. It at least points out the green and black theme a little better.

Well, here's the one I made Dylflon.



I am pretty sure you'll use Dyne's. But I made this anyway. Hope you like it though.

Heheh, what's in the background for that one? Backgrounds are always the "funny" part of sigs. For instance, I used a telescope's image of some funky gas for the back of The Game's ¦¬Þ. Whatever works.

Some many unknown web artist's here at GT are making their premiere today, Dyne sure has a lot of new competition.

Where do you guys learn how to do all of that? I have Photoshop 7 but I don't know how to make anything that cool looking as the stuff I've seen today and yesterday.

Hehe, yeah. I used a ghost for the moon on the top left. Yeah, very random, and the middle is a ink outlined half of a castle. I also used Lens Flare near Luigi's face.

Yeah, thanks. It takes practice and all... I took Graphic Arts and read some online tutorials.

PS: Do you like yours GM?
