Simple sig

[Aikante]

So I guess this'll be my first post here... o.o

I made this out of complete boredom. You can tell I'm still a bit of a noob, even though I've been tackling Photoshop for quite awhile now >.< The text is... bleh, I know. I'm not very creative :P Anyways, suggestions are always welcome. I've noticed quite a few pros here o.o

[playsafe]

nice. much better than me. I just learned how to color. :(

[AngelMayLaugh]

Did you Gausian Blur than set it to lighten?

[Aikante]

Thanks.
Colouring seems a bit hard for me -_- haven't tried it yet. (Not even sure which tool would be best suited for it, lol)

I applied image, blurred it, and set it on lighter color as a final touch. In my opinion, it didn't look very good when sharpened x.x that's just me

Okay, just wanted to know. I haven't seen a sig with that in awhile.

Oh, aren't you like... the gfx pro around here? :P
I'd like to know how you did those specks of blue in your Sakura sig. (c4d on lighten?)

might be c4d...if its not probably just put a brush on scatter and drew them :P

Nice deduction :D.


@Aikante, I guess something like that. Kayos Is better than me though.

you guys really are so productive with photoshop
i envy you...
so far all i've been doing is edit my photos...
(y'know...remove blemishes...change the background...)
haven't tried 2d graphics coloring/editing...

i REALLY like that Air sig ♪ (it IS from Air, right?)
how DO you do that??? specially the "abstract" effects.

Just a simple abstract brush or C4d.

not really feeling the contrast on misuzu and I don't really like the Gaussian Blur effect

but air rules aside from the ending being ultra sad so it's all good.

[AngelMayLaugh]

Do you guys mean Air TV?

[Satralis]

yea its prolly the blondy from Air TV...
and it is really sad...both the ovas and the series...
awsome sig..but im noob anyways (rate the sig thread is useless now?)

edit: sry i cant find it either :p not even in the graveyard O.o

I think the blur might be a little much, maybe if it was toned down a bit. To me it's just a little to soft on the eyes. It's really good though.

I never use sharpen, it never works for me so I just don't even bother with it.

Thanks, that's the kind of criticism I look for =p rather than something unhelpful like "it sucks".

[¯\_(ツ)_/¯]

eh too bright for meh,
the c4d looks too obvious for it to be a simple sig,
if you tone down the lighting and add a direction to the light and darkend and blurred the edges it would have a better effect

and thnks to AML for your comment ^_^

[midorika]

I like the sig~
It's very nice~
Like how Misuzu is surrounded by blues~~

Second version, tried cleaning it up a bit to make it look a bit simpler and darker. Text still sucks and Misuzu could stand out more, but I got lazy x.x

[¯\_(ツ)_/¯]

looks a bit better, but still not as good as it could, if you send meh the psd, i'll show u what i was talkin about

[Aikante]

Sure, I appreciate the help...
How should I send it?

[¯\_(ツ)_/¯]

[Aikante]

Ah, thanks a lot there.
I'll try that myself, but could you also send me the edited .psd? (You don't have to.)

[¯\_(ツ)_/¯]

Sent it, it's on its way lol
might take awhile though >.>
edit: nvm its sent

[Aikante]
