Can i remind you guys, i guess me and oric can let it slide, but the render is about the Give it a Name gig, not any random Band ;D
Paper and VoX, both pretty good, though VoX's could have a little more of a point to it..

It was never about Give It A Name, and very nice sig Daemon, was that a stock or a render, I couldn't find a Hayley Williams anywhere.

it was a render, Deviantart ftw

Meaning....? It tells the story of Slash's life, first G'n'R the Slash's Snakepit and then Velvey Revolver.

Nvm >.<' I meant there could be a little more going on, not just the over-used image and some sig guitar pics :D And check the other thread, Oric chose the render.

Dude over compicating things isnt the way to go. look at urs i could say that you have to singers and a lightning effect, that makes it sound simple. If you look at vox's he uses brushes pixel strecth and has made a pop out effect.

VoX
16th May 2008, 07:29 PM
Peek a boo!

I was going to add some vector shapes in behind but i completely forgot but it's too late now.

VH, you criticise us for bad sigs, lets start on yours. No border, basic effects used, basic text used, weird square-ish size used and there are too many light sources, not to mention the monotonous colours used.

Sorry for the rant but he moaned at mine.

Cobra Starship are a band, and being Cobra Starship I couldn't resist doing a black paint can followed by some white dots.

Well to be honest to me that looks more like a mushroom cross between a penis.

Paper Tiger

Okay. My opinion on this picky choosy render shit...

Winner of each comp chooses THEME only! If they can't think of s suitable theme, then it's a freestyle!

Picking render limits people to what they can do. You may not like the render, not be able to work with it/work it to how you want etc.

That's my suggestion. Maybe have that in place next week. 'cos Oric was right. We're trying to make it TOO complicated, which is why I think people lost interest, as they lost the freedom of making a UNIQUE sig.

:) (Don't hate me!)

'cos Oric was right.

I love it when people say this.

BTW, I suggested GIAN in the other thread, but VoX decided at the start of the comp thread it's bands in general, so that was the comp, not GIAN. Read Mofos.

Hey VoX, you've got points, i was just putting my own constructive critisism, that I thought that there wasn't much going on, i wasn't meant to offend you :) And i've taken your crit into view and it'll improve further signatures i make.

EDIT: In all honesty, i didn't look at either of the siggys too hard, and never noticed the backgrounds.

I like the "winner picks the theme" idea, partly because it's my idea, and also because I don't know what a render actually is.

Vicious Horizon
17th May 2008, 12:45 PM
A render is an image which needs to be used in the Sig. Its a good idea if everyone follows the rules :D But i'm not sure what you guys think.

Chazlene
17th May 2008, 01:15 PM
Well actually a render is just a screenshot for example which has had its background removed.

And I'm up for winner picks theme, mostly because I'm gonna win all the time. :D

Aye, and thats why plan had a clever safeguard in place, you can only win every other week because the winner can't enter. :p

Paper Tiger
17th May 2008, 10:37 PM
Okay, winner can't enter. BUT!!! I'm asuming they can make a sig for it, but it not be counted?

If they want to they can. I suspect.
