New Signature/Avatar Request Thread

[Shady]

Well, through reading around in this forum I noticed some of the people who were making sigs seem to be busy or inactive. Seeing how I've been bored lately and decided to get back into Photoshop and such, I though well why not make some sigs for the people on DV? Basically some of the old requests are anywhere from a few weeks to a few months old, seem to have gone unanswered but I'm not sure. So, if theres anyone else actively looking through this forum that would like a signature, feel free to post a request in here. I will say that im absolutely horrible at text, just dont have an eye for it . If you'd prefer to add your own, say so and I'll gladly upload a version with no text. Some examples of my old sigs are below, keep in mind these were made well over a year or two ago, and I haven't really touched PS since.. It may take me a while to get going again, but hopefully after some more practice I'll be back to normal. I know they are pretty bland and similar, but I theres just so many I could upload I just tried to get some that have a bit of everything. ----------------------------------------------------------------- If you can, answer the questions below one way or another.. It just helps if I have a better idea about what you would like. 1. Theme -Character in a game, actor, abstract, grunge, tech, anime etc etc.. what is is all about? I will generally smudge my backgrounds from scratch unless you'd prefer a certain style, let me know. 2. Color and Light -Its not going to be monotone or B&W unless you want it like that, but give me an idea of what your looking for. Give me a couple colors that you like, I will try to bring it together but some things just don't match.. do you want it to be dark or mysterious, happy and light? 3. Render -Aside from the basic theme of the sig, what do you want in the signature? In all my above signatures I use a render from a game or a movie star or something. If you have a stock photo or something you would like added upload it, keep it mind if its to small, or bad quality.. it will really affect the sig. Your better off telling me what you want the picture to be of, and let me search around till I find something 4. Text -If you want something other then your name on these forums, maybe a phrase or something, let me know. No essays of course . Also if you'd prefer a type of font give me an example of it from a picture or something, or if you know the name thats great. I'll see what I can do. Like I said im not very good at text as you can tell in my above examples, it just.. doesn't work with me. I always leave it very simple for that reason.

I like the Tekken 5 one, and the one you have on now.

[[SomeGuy]]

Ha. Where did this come from, my userbar thread? I'll gladly help, I have it in my profile that I can make them. But i'm stuck with the GIMP right now, PS will come back soon!

[ClouD]

Mmm I'm liking the abstract textures; very yummy blending. <3

[[SomeGuy]]

He did my userbar and avatar. I kind of like this n00b. No offense lool.

[kingofclutch]

I would like one, but I am not sure what I want. I definately don't want another one to do with sports. I want my username in it and black and blue would be good colors, but I don't know what I want for the theme. Any ideas, anyone?

[[SomeGuy]]

Meh. I'll do one later as in late tonight. I will make a couple general ones and add things as you want. Edit- Less useless?

[Grod]

I want my username in it and black and blue would be good colors, but I don't know what I want for the theme. Any ideas, anyone? What are your interests, a favorite movie character or something like that would work. Meh. I'll do one later. Stop making useless posts.

[kingofclutch]

What are your interests, a favorite movie character or something like that would work. Well, I like sports, but I don't want that. Hmm, maybe one with Will Smith, that would be cool. I want it just to say KingofClutch or maybe King of Clutch. I would like it if the writing was a bit bigger than in your examples. So, would you make one for me, please?

Why does this thread exist?! It would make much more sense in my opinion if it were integrated into the main "Signature" thread. You could have just made a post in there you know.

[Shady]

It would also make more sense if the original thread got answered by the people who started/were making stuff for people asking in there, some requests were somewhat old, unanswered, and I wasnt sure if they still wanted a sig.. Much easier to make a new thread then whore the boards PM'ing everyone and their brother. Like I said, delete the thread if its a big problem.. Its one thread, its not going to kill the boards.. Theres plenty more "spam" in other forums to worry about. In the same respect if the sig request thread was being used by people actually making sigs for people, there wouldn't be a bunch of other posts outside of that for people asking for a signature or avatar dontcha think? lol Delete the thread if its a problem, hell I'll do it for you, but at least answer people on the other thread then And btw King of Clutch, I'll work on one for ya today man , just going to finish up skunks and then i'll get to it. Had a late night last night so wasnt able to work on some stuff at all ><

[Shady]

@ King Okay, so couple versions... Let me know what ya think.. I really wasn't feeling will smith in blue, if you dont like this shade or color let me know and I can switch it up, just felt like it looked better this way. Text is.. bleh as usual for me lol, I might play with it some more later, but let me know what you think, and if you want anything changed say so now

[kingofclutch]

Both of those are tight, but I like the first one better. Thanks, man. I appreciate it. You are very good at making sigs.

[Jdeadevil]

How the hell do you make those sigs? They're awesome!

[Shady]

Lol >< These are all pretty simple.. just some basic smudging and photo manip . But thanks, glad you like it king

[Jdeadevil]

Your current sig is awesome. Think I might get used to those tools you mentioned.

[[SomeGuy]]

I would like to help in this. Do you kno where I can get any backgrounds and fonts? I used to make my own, but I would like to do some cooler ones now.

[Shady]

I smudge and use all sorts of photo manip for my backgrounds. Play around with the settings and things in photoshop To start off you can find some nice brushes at deviant art, and also for fonts dafont.com is great.

[kingofclutch]

Would it be a problem for you make a baron davis(basketball player) one for me? It's just that I really like your signatures! I would really appreciate it!

[Emerald Wolf]

I'd like to put in a request for an avatar. Heres the relevant post from the "old" thread: -I'd like a headshot of a wolf with a gentle "zenlike" feel to it (I've saved the base for the one I'm currently using here http://img2.freeimagehosting.net/ima...07d9e95996.jpg) with the eyes edited to be a luminous green, but not overly bright (The one I'm using was done in MS-paint and I'm thinking it doesn't look entirely professional).

[Shady]

Sure, I'll work on both of em tonight when I get home, sorry for the late reply btw clutch

[Adanac]

I don't know if you're still doing this or what, and I have no pressing need but I thought I'd post anyway. I like what you've made so far, so I don't want to mess around with that or anything. What I want is only that the theme be sort of dark, that it be relatively simple (compared to your other ones haha ), and that there are no pictures in it. I like my avatar and wouldn't mind something similar, but not the same. Good luck, if you do it. EDIT: And no text on it plz. EDIT: It would seem I've gone and done it myself. Though I'm not fully satisfied with it. Feel free to make one anyways as I'm interested to see how it would've turned out.

[Shady]

Okay, here we go lol.. @ Clutch, kinda same old same old =/ Might play around later just been busy lately and havent had alot of time @ Emerald, not exactly sure what else you would want ><, only so much you can do with an avatar sized pic, I can spice it up later or something if you'd like. @ Adanac, Im also not to sure exactly what you would like, or exactly what your current sig is ><. Im guessing you want some sorta abstract type background, I have to find my old DVD with all my C4D renders on it. If you could give me a bit more info what you want.. I can probably make something better for you.. but for now..

[Jdeadevil]

Nice Shady, that's a really nicely done Avatar.
