My first sig is horrible:

I got a lot better in photoshop, i love this sig do
you?

Im planning on making this mario sig better, any tips?!

The mario sig is betterm but the text is bad, not blended in, work on that, fix some of the colors so they match, like, make the background red and blue, and fix the green, it makes it look bad, and get rid of the purple star (forget what they are called....)

You have a way to go.

personally I don't think cars work well in sigs, and you never really see people use car renders, theyre usually doing abstract, real life, game or anime renders.

The first one is kinda blurry to me, but the second one is way better, however could still use some work on it. Overall pretty good for you're first and second sigs.

i took your advice, i blended it in some more, and then i removed the purple start( i never noticed it made it look bad until now.

also i was thinking of adding another c4d render for the background.

and for the text can you tell me which one to use and what color?

ALSO: Anybody got any ratings for the mario sig?

1/10 for the effort

ratings are useless because they don't tell you anything. comments and constructive criticism works better, so here is some:

The background (red) is pretty boring. There's not much. And here's a rule

NEVER EVER stretch anything. The general rule is to keep people or wahtever in proportion. As you can see, you flattened mario so he would fit. NEVER stretch or flatten or whatever you wanna call it.

If you want to resize the render all you do is go to.. Image>Image Size.. then screw around with the height and width.

that's just not great. a BETTER way, that is more free, is called Free Transform.

go to the layer with the render, and press CTRL+T. This'll bring up a box. HOLD SHIFT (this is important) while dragging a CORNER of the box. not edge. CORNER. Make bigger or smaller as you like. HOLDING SHIFT is important because it keeps your proportions constrained.

Free transform is good too, lol.

GunnerZeke · 08-04-2007, 08:45 AM

what version of PS u use??? if Cs2

then covert the image to SMART IMAGE by right clicking the layer and click "convert to smart image"

then Free transform by clicking "CTRL" "T"

...

then u just resize it..

ima give a 3/10 for effort..

as far as i can tell, u just put a Render with the stars already in them... then just got a red C4D background.

Planet Renders // Renders - Video/Console Game Renders/Mario = render...

good attempt...

Oh.. and Yarr is like that to everyone kk???

mattsup94 · 08-04-2007, 12:03 PM

Lol you guys are acting like i dont know anything in photoshop, i did use free transform to resize the image using shift.
