Render : C.C from Code Geass
I know the font is a bit far but I really wanted the "Geass" to be in Overlay to get the colors from the Space BG.

Comments,Critics,Rate,Suggestions,etc. I'm here to learn

I'm up for a few edits.

Normal

Bordered.

Mini

Could you guys please tell me which version is better. I'm thinking of using this signature for my first BSOTW on a GFX forums.(Beginner's Sig of the Week).

Id say get rid of the text on all of them.

Eighter remove text as 0l3n said, eighter blend it in. Also try to make effects go in 1 direction it will make your sig look cleaner and more pr0. GL with further works.

Screw Fonts then

But does it look better in Mini? Considering there's some empty space.

Think I'll get a weaker mark if I don't have text?

EDIT: Screw it, I'll just make another tag for the BSOTW.

Why would you get a weaker mark?

If someone comments you and sais "add text" then they are just bandwagon dipshits who cant think for themselves and have no creative ability what so ever.

Not saying text is wrong, absolutely not, but adding text for the sake of adding text is just stupid.

Clipping mask + Blending?

Biggest qualm I have is lack of attention to lighting. You have multiple light sources(+ a lens flare?) but none of which match the lighting of the render leaving the tag flat. So I'd say work on that and contrast because, now this could be my monitor settings, it seems overly bright.

Wish I could say more but I haven't worked on such a small canvas in quiet a while so I'll leave it at that before I get ahead of myself.

I did have a hard time, I coudn't use Omni(Render->Lighting) because it would make her glow way too much. So at the end I just used a huge white soft brush for lighting. And the Lens Flare is caused by a brand new set of Star brush I downloaded,my bad :banghead:

Check some GFX forums, I am a beginner imo

Plus I hate this tag.

This Aurora sig is Solid-High Beginner, Halibel is a Solid Novice.

IMO, you are still a "Beginner," in terms of experience.

I personally think Halibel is better than Aurora

Then again I don't quite understand your ranking system xD

Let's all adopt Kraq's system for CnC :yay:

That isn't Kraq's system, it's the GFX world's system in general.

Kraq · **Posted:** Fri Aug 20, 2010 5:53 pm

Yers, it's the universal classing system.

Oh, the only GFX forum I go is GFXResource. There, the only comments they give you is "AWESOME,REALLY NICE EFFECTS" if you have Topaz in you're tag. It's quite disgusting, everyone Topaz the shit out of their tags.
