Code_Ember Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 @Crimson - I really like your sig. A classic and legendary signature maker for me. :wink: @TopHATslash - Didn't you say the MassEffect (Asari *winkwink*) signature was made with Photoshop and you did some major filtering and coloring in PDN?

pipp92 Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 i think the effect behind the render is pretty sweet, but a bit aliased try some effects on the render, and add something to the bg and thee left side.

St.Jim Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 Here is a logo/text for my website - I'm thinking of redesigning it for the new year or so. Can you tell me what you think? I used the smudge plugin for it - its great for messy looks. Quote My DeviantArt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LFC4EVER Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 Its quite cool. The blue and grey go well together, and the faded reflection is also a nice touch. Great job! Made a new Andy Murray sig. It was all done in PDN except for the stadium, Murray stocks, and the lighting by the text. Used a lot of Smudge. cc?

Blooper Posted September 11, 2008 Share Posted September 11, 2008 A WIP of my Andy Murray sig coming soon. The effect behind was created with smudge. I love smudge. What do ya guys think? I think that you should duplicate the smudging, mess it up a bit so it's not so 'flowy' (just small strokes), and lower the opacity of the first smudging. Also add some messy smudging on top of Andy, towards the bottom of his stomach. [Edit] This stuff still stands although you posted a new version.

LFC4EVER Posted September 11, 2008 Share Posted September 11, 2008 Ok, thanks for the cc. I'll give it a shot tomorrow and see how it looks, as its bed-time now. Quote ☆★☆★Merry Christmas★☆★☆ .::.My Gallery.::.Make Gold Text!.::. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
St.Jim Posted September 11, 2008 Share Posted September 11, 2008 Wow, I'm liking the differnt layers of that image I think that you should do 1 messed layer and one normal and combine them. I've been expanding on my original image and made an ice and fire signature. (Well the colours are ice and fire) Ice like one Fire style one. Can you tell me which one you perfare and if I could do anything else to them? Thanks. Quote My DeviantArt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
007 Nab Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 I like them both - they both have their own style - and it doesn't look like the only difference is color either - good job on the smudging too. The glare on the text looks nice, though the text itself looks a bit aliased in some areas. Here's some text experimenting, it's kinda dark because I messed around with it a little too much, but I think it looks kinda cool. Clicky^^ The text itself is the outlines you see - there is no black magic text that covers up everything but the lighting you see. Quote "pyrochild, you're my favorite person ever.

St.Jim Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 Nice! I like the colour of the background chosen, as it matches the colour of the guys shirt. I think that the blur (Or what ever it is behind the guy) needs to be a bit fainter so that it emphasises the guy more. (Sorry for saying guy so much, I do not know a think about football) Other than that, keep up the good work! Quote My DeviantArt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kemaru Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 @Pipp: That is pretty good. The only thing that bothers me is that the borders aren't equal (You'll know what I mean if you look right). This one's your best IMO because it isn't as sharp as your other sigs. I was practising rendering and this is the result. I think it's my worst, plainest, and the most boring sig ever. Just thought I'd show it anyway.

pipp92 Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 the outline is not so great and the colors of the text are boring so v2: Quote Personal Gallery Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LFC4EVER Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 Lower the opacity of the stadium, add a few more effects on Nani, and create text that suits the sig. The text you've done is too simple. Quote ☆★☆★Merry Christmas★☆★☆ .::.My Gallery.::.Make Gold Text!.::. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pitos9 Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 here are a load of my sigs i dont really like making avatars i like my kermit one! i could use this as my avatar... ----> thats it any question about em feel free to ask Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
007 Nab Posted September 13, 2008 Share Posted September 13, 2008 You have a lot of pictures there Pitos - I think you need to work on color choice - some of the colors you stick in some sigs don't match the rest of the signature. My favorite out of the ones you put on there would have to be your current one - the Guitar Hero one is good too, even though the text you added doesn't go well with the signature - it needs to be along those colors. Good efforts so far - keep it up! _____ More text experimenting (very basic, but I liked the outcome) Clicky^^ for big version (suggested) No smudge, by the way, if that's what you're thinking :wink: Quote "pyrochild, you're my favorite person ever.

007 Nab Posted September 13, 2008 Share Posted September 13, 2008 :shock: looks greatany tips on how you did that? Thanks here's the basics of it: Fill with black, add new layer + text blur text at a high amount (but still legible) save as text map.png new layer diff clouds, diff clouds, diff clouds, about 5 times. Curves to color the cluds whatever color Run displacement plugin on clouds layer - load text map.png and displace both x and y fully to max (I think it's 200) And there you have it. All you have to do now is crop to your text. Simple, but I thought it looked cool. Quote "pyrochild, you're my favorite person ever. We should go snowboarding some time."~ 007 Nab. Ish.

worldnewser Posted September 13, 2008 Share Posted September 13, 2008 alpha displacement or displacement map or displacement ? Those are essentially the same thing. At least, I'm pretty sure they are.

007 Nab Posted September 13, 2008 Share Posted September 13, 2008 Sorry for the confusion guys, the plugin I am talking about is Alpha-Displacement. You save the blurred text as a .png, and then load it into the plugin for the clouds layer. Then you select the "displacement on?" And raise both x & y to 200.
