Now this is a little embarrassing because of all of the exigent sig work i've seen. But I felt like trying it for the first time (I've never used PS before) If you could please rate it ?/10 and offer comments to improve them thanks.

Oh yea.. There's no need to be nice. If they really do suck just come out and tell me please.



First


Second


O yea, Which one is better????

Heck, that's really good for a first adn second signature. The text needs a lot of work, but that comes with time.

Not sure they are exactly what you would call sig's. Ex: a sig to me is something that shows who you are, your artistic value, something that might even explain who you are through the styles you use. I would call these more along the lines of tag's, actually some people say that tag's and sig's are the same, they are not, they may seem pretty close in value but are totally opposite artistic views. Other than all that BS very nice use and combination of brushes there. The first one being my fav. of the two. One suggestion though, actually I think someone suggested it to me when I first started, is not to use a glow or blending options - bevel on any text unless the work calls for such, styles on the other hand are a different story.
Very Nice work on the first one. Good Job, keep it up and next time try to go with a theme. Hope to see more out of you!!!

Demonixx you crap on too much. He didn't need to know about tags / signature definitions and how they represent who you are. He just wanted some comments to help him improve.

[DeathWish^!]

there really cool for backgrounds and maybe sigs you need some work with the text but dont worry it will be easy soon well done

Sure he did, everyone needs to know the difference. I was just trying to help a brother out. How was I being crappy? Because I don't think I was. If you took it that way then you mis-understood what I was saying.

Demonixx is right about the bevel and outer glow, its really not to good to use them, as for the Tag / Signature i think that one persons view of a personal statement is seen very differantly from one person to another, so with that in mind i would say "How can you express yourself within Photoshop if you dont know how to?" It'll be like a baby trying to express itself, it would get it wrong many times until it's been shown how to do it properly.

Anyways, w/e, i think these are actually pretty good for your first 2, the first one is very artistic, i would keep at it and just mess around with the 100's of differant options there are in p.s. It pointless me rating them as you've only just started along the road to perfection. Great first try, If You need any help then just ask.

I guess what I said does sound different on paper than what I was meaning for it to. You express yourself through your emotions and how your feeling at that one given time, so if your pissed or if something is bothering you you will most likely choose a darker approach, not all the time but the majority of the time. That's more along the lines of what I was trying to say, that you express your self through your emotions and Imagination, so therefor it would be pretty easy to express ones self through PS (Art). Me simply stating that there is a difference between a tag and a sig was simply just to point out there are different meanings for the both. I took the definition for tag and applied it to his (art) as it seemed to up better in my book.

Nevertheless, yes, the first one is very nice. I like the combination of brushes used(abstract, scatch and grunge) from what I see correct? I was not downing his work at all and would never. I only voice my personal opinion as everyone else does.

But DaVinci if there's anything you need (brushes, renders, styles, gradients, anything) just let me know, I'll even point you in the way of some real good tut's

I like the first one it's really interesting... not a fan of the second though... I just didn't like the outcome and also the colors arn't my favorite.... text needs work but that has been said already...

all in all I find that with a bit more practice you will get alot better... I also like your style specially from that first sig... keep it up I want to see more!

[sirenzo]

well he got a decent bg effect now lets see what he can do with them in adding a render with ither a c4 or a 3d render up to u but gl on u next projects m8

[kirsty_mcm]

well thats better then the level that im at allready lol, as for the tag/sig thing, they are peoples opinions, i didnt know that myself there was a difference. but then im new too, good luck with the next batch and the advice is right on the bevel and the outer glow
