[Izar]

Anubis - The font is great and all, not a fan of the pic though. 8/10 for the font, because the font just plain out Rules. 8/10 for the set too.

[Nobody]

Andross:
I do not understand what is with the forks, but the advertisment banner is good. 4/5

[Izar]

Nobody - Um, about a 6/10. It's a good background and such, just too plain, add stuff...

[Nemphtis]

Izar: By now it's clear I am not a religious person, so I don't find the quote in your second sig that amazing, and the quote in your first sig makes no sense to me. You would have gotten extra marks if I found the picture of a cross fascinating but unfortunately I do not. The shade of grey you've used is also gross in my opinion. 4/10

[TobiasMar]

Anubis: Avatar is nice. 8/10
Sig - Good too, but some people may take the bottom right part of the image a little offensively... :/ 7/10
Overall - 7.5/10

*New sig!*

[Nobody]

Agatio:
All: I don't understand what the text means, but it's a great image. The text glow isn't bad either. 20/21

[Mallick]

Andross: You have the line wrong, man. It's not a fork that forks you. 4/10
Izar: I like. =) 9/10
Tobias: No offense, but I don't really like it. >_> 4/10
Nobody: It's not a set. ^_^ 4/10

[Elliott]

It's lyrics from Dark Tranquillity's "Lost to Apathy" song.

"Look at the shell that is you,
empty, fragile, weak,
soon the battle is ovver,
lost to apathy"

(Apathy: an absence of emotion or enthusiasm)

PDM: Your text on your avatar is whacked, but the overall image is nice, and the sig matches. The FEE banner looks out of place, but oh well.
7/10 for your set.

Izar: I ain't religious either, but I'll keep that out of the rating. I don't like the grey, I don't like the fact that you have 2 sizable images in your sig, and the quote on the first one is difficult to read (both fonts aren't that great). 3/10 for the set.

[TobiasMar]

I dunno if he posted in here, but I'll post my opinion about Lance's set.
Avatar: A bit close-up, but I like it. 8/10
Sig: Like it too, and I like the background around the troop. 9/10
Set and Overall rating: It resembles a Republic Clone Trooper from Star Wars Episode II, and I'm a star wars fan myself. (9.5/10)

New set btw

[Elliott]

Gimli: At least make proper signature dimensions, that really isn't hard.

Max height should be 200px.
Max width should be 500px.

The bg isn't that great, like I said in your art topic. The text is nice, but doesn't match. The only real plus to your set is that they match.

3/10

[TobiasMar]

My sig is 450 x 200, so its proper.

And if my avatar looks like part of my signature, go to the image URL and refresh; its not supposed to look like that.

[Elliott]

They match, I refreshed 3 times.
And 450x200 still looks terrible.
Try 450x120px instead.

[Excalibur's Power]

Agatio--Nice quote, great effects. ^_^

9/10

[TobiasMar]

Agatio:
Avatar - Nice. 8/10
Sig - Nice also. 9/10
overall - 8.5/10

Excaliburs Power:
Avatar - Good also, dont get why theres a girl though. 8/10
Sig - Really good! If its not just me, I see 0's and 1's in there if I look carefully. 9/10
Overall - 8.5/10

And I have a new set....again!

[Elliott]

Try something besides the nebula, please. It's just not good.
Also, try it at 450x100px.
4/10 for this set.

It's not a direct quote ^_^
I'm not quoting the Family Guy episode, I was merely given the idea of it from the fork part.

Andross: Lol, those are both really funny, the forks, make me laugh. The yellow is just like it is supposed to go there. Looks great!

Avatar:10/10
Sig:(Fork one) 10/10

[Mallick]

Zxor: Love the sig, nice effect with the text and stuff. =) 9/10

[Nemphtis]

I like the sig, it's a good improvement to your previous stuff. Only I just noticed you didn't make it. lol

Avatar is a bit too blocky since I think whoever made it for you stretched it.

Overal - 7/10

[Elliott]

love the pop-out signatures Anubis. It matches your avatar too as well. My only grip is that it seems the signature chick looks as though she has been reduced in size (compared to the avatar).

9/10 for the set

[Nemphtis]

Yah, the original image is HUGE. I posted it up int his topic so if you check previous pages you should see it 3-4 pages back. I had to minimize it bigtime so yeah.

Rating: 8.5/10

Your avatar is pretty cool Silo. The sig doesn't match, and the font is hard to read. Then you have the couples of pointless text.
Remove the "watchitgo" or something.
Overall, 6/10 for the set.

[Neon]

Nice quote. I started downloading Dark Tranquillity stuff today after reading your post in the 'what are you listening to' topic. I'm looking at the site right now and the first thing that loads is the image you used in your set ;).

Anyway, nice quote, but the image itself isn't very good :\.

6/10

[Elliott]

It was quickly thrown together (cropped a portion of their banner and put some text on).

I like your avatar Neon (WC3?). Signature is a little boring, and it doesn't match. So 5/10 overall.

[Mycarayne]

*agrees*

Agatio: Nice. Kinda looks like shards of glass. And don;t go telling me that you already said that it looks like/ is shards of glass. You'll ruin the moment.

Anyway, It looks pretty cool, even though you just "threw it together"
Set: 8/10

[Elliott]

Love the new signature MR, best on the entire forum!
10/10 ;)

[Mycarayne]

Why thank you Agatio. How very nice of you to say so...

[Nemphtis]

Only cause he's Australian too. ;)

[TobiasMar]

Betrayer: Yous set is good, but it makes me almost mistake you for Crimson at times. 9/10

[Excalibur's Power]

Gimli--To shinyyyy [Mistake on purpose] and not what you'd call "regular" sig dimensions. I like the text.

Avvy--8/10

Siggy--8.5/10

Set--9.1/10

[TobiasMar]

...Finally, I get a good rating on my set! ;)

[Nemphtis]

EP: 9/10 because I just love Utada Hikaru.

Gimli: Really basic stuff but points for effort I suppose, 6/10.

[TobiasMar]

Well, i did put a quite a bit of effort into it. Same thing with your set, Anubis. 8/10

[Neo]

Tam Tam tammm...
new sig =D... the Cogito one started to bore me. this one is less good, but at least it's different. and again, it was 80% experimenting, and 20% basics.

What's the Render in the sig from?

[Izar]

Haha! My new set of the Keeper Enforcer!

Agatio - Um... The city or whatever is in the background kinda stinks, the font works well with it though, 6/10

Gimli - The font = ugh... but the background looks neat and stuff. Clean and simple, I like it. 7/10

[Echo_djinn]

Anubis: Anime style? Never was your style. Anyways, the pic is crisp and clear and I mean clear. Me and my mind. Avatar matches your sig so it's all good. 9/10 Your sig stands out and the light blue back round suits the sig quite nicely 9.5/10 Overall it's just plain sick. 9/10

[TobiasMar]

Izar- Your set is OK. 6/10
Neo Genesis- Its pretty good. 7/10

[Neo]

Anubis, its from God of War. very cool hack 'n slash a.k.a. action/adventure game.

[Nemphtis]

I know the game, I had to review the gamecode a few months back.

You can barely make him out though.

[Neo]

yes I put a dreamy blur effect over him, same for the bg.

dont fall while dancing buddy. oops you fell.
very simple, and I dont like the text. renders are nice but the bg doesnt look good. it needs a border too, and its too big. 6/10.
told ya not to fall :ph34r:

[Nemphtis]

TheDogWho, on Apr 28 2005, 04:10 PM, said:

The font is too plain and simple, the background effect is just, lame, in my opinion. The images are cool though, I like the art style used in Wind Waker.

All in all, 6/10.

[TobiasMar]

Too plain TDW, and I dont even like Zelda stuff, so your set is 3/10. Sorry.

[Someone Else]

Gimli: Set is very... spacey... a little plain I think but it's not actually half bad.

Av: 7/10
Sig: 8/10
Set: 8/10

Anubis: I'm not quite sure I'm comfortable with my parents around while that girl is wearing something that reveals her, uh... cheeks so much. XD;; But it's pretty cool looking, really.

Well, I'm glad you like it WD. (or at least I think you do because of the rating

Wind dude
Avatar- Err....weird. No offence o.o 5/10
Sig- A little better, but weird too.... 6/10
Set- 5.5/10

[Elliott]

Whats going on with ratings today? WD's set owns Gimli's but Gimli's got a higher rating? Anyway, they both really aren't that great.

I'd give WD's set a 4.

[Master Firebender]

Agatio, I dunno what it is, but...7/10
I dunno what to say, sorry. ><

[Mycarayne]

Gimli: Well its great to see that old one of yours gone and you now putting your time and effort into APS. (I think)

Anyway, Im gonna be brutally honest and say that it is not very good. However, I reckon its 5x better than my first attempt at APS. Set: 5/10. You'll get better with practice

Have I already said that? meh.

Fire bender guy: Im gonna stick with the Paine one, becasue I dunno what the other one is based one.

Anyways; Yes, its pretty good, but the text is a little difficult to read (at first glance I didn't even see it) My opinion: Give it a 1px black stroke.
Paine sig: 7/10

[Master Firebender]

hehe, its not from paine
its from avatar the last airbender hehe, and the second one is from final fantasy,
The text in the background, it is exactly what they say in the beginning of the show of avatar, you know the starting...but ya, i didnt mean it for people to read, but you can try :) .

[Excalibur's Power]

Firebender, I wanna know what brush ya use....9/10

[Master Firebender]

I have no idea what brushes I use, I just know how far down the list of brushes they are, and then I just use them, but ya, Mine all require Photoshop CS, I think one of mine that I used in the bottom sig is SnakeByte, or something of that sort.

I guess it's a difference in taste.

My sig got softened... And I put up a sig for Kids in the Way, one of my favorite bands.

Gimli:
Set: Meepo..it needs work. 7/10

Mine:
Signature is messed, background is simliar to a tutorial I saw, but I made from scratchy. =) . >> 6/10

[Elliott]

Signature banners never need to be over 125px.
Why do people keep going over? It's just annoying for low bandwidth users, and it takes up more space than necessary.

[Mycarayne]

Except for popouts. They need to be pretty tall in order to look good.

[Izar]

Why does everyone always seem to read past my posts. I got a new banner, hello pepes.

Mines 450x125 or 130. Off by 5, woopty doo. :) The Kids in the Way banner not really advertising my own site.

PDM: Ok... That's a bit odd. Don't want a ferret sucking out my memories. 8/10 :D

[Mycarayne]

Don't worry, Memories always Remain. :)

Anyway, A nice set (Excluding the Kids in the way pic), but besdies that, its a nice matching and generally pretty cool. 8.9/10

Actually, I made it around the picture of the ferret and used the free transform to make it smaller, and any shorter than that, it would look squashed..unless I made it less wide, but that just won't do. >>

[Elliott]

Actually, I wasn't talking to you.

May as well rate our set:

Go back to your old set :) .

[Andross]

New abstract siggy. The wonders of color balance (and brushes) :)

Agatio: The text doesn't work well aesthetically, IMO, mainly 'cause of that glow. Doesn't seem subtle enough. The bg is decent though, if not a bit harsh. 7/10.

[Wiflewood]

Nice Andross. The sig is amazing,One of my Favourite fonts.
Th Avatar is cool too. Very bright and bold.

Av: 8/10
Sig: 9/10

[Elliott]

Love the new signature Andross. The grungey/abstract feel is cool, I love the colours also. 10/10 for that image.

[Mathak Kraven]

Jon, I give your av a 8.5/10

you siggy deserves a 8.7/10 with the text and all.

[Elliott]

I guess you looked at the first page then did fast reply?
I like your siggy, nice border and brushes etc. did you make it?
Not a fan of all that text, oh well.
Avatar is mediocre (starcraft?)
7/10 overall for the set.

[I'm Always BROKE]

Lemme rate one time to!

Agatio:
Avatar: Are those 3 pilars??? 6.3/10
Siggy: There are those pilars again... but they look like a city... Weird but good. 8.1/10
Set: They look good with each other, probarly cuz its thr same picture :) Well I give you a 7.5/10 for the whole set.

[Wiflewood]

Diddy: Avvie, bold easy to see.Unorigional though. 7/10
Sig: Blurry and hard to make out. 5/10

[Izar]

Finally got my demon hunter one up.

Wifflewood: Odd one there. The avatar's a bit strange. Sig's a bit boring. 7/10 overall.

DiddyKong: a 6/10 The images are kinda distorted, as in jagged edges.

[Andross]

Izar: Font color not working for me. The gray makes things seem stale as well, and the sig could've gone through a lot more work. Too quicky - try making a nice background, crop the people out and smooth edges, then make the text more readable. Again, avatar is plain, text doesn't work too well. Try and stick with a pixel font to keep the skull from being coverred up.

4/10 overall.

[Izar]

I'm using Paint Shop Pro, for one reason, And I haven't had it for long, And I didn't make the whole image myself, and I can read the text just fine.

[Andross]

Just because you can read it fine doesn't mean others can (gamma and monitor types can affect it). You may be able to tell what the text is, but it isn't well defined, and thus, Hunter in the sig gets a bit lost, as does the M in Demon, and the avatar text isn't well defined on the edges either.

I still suggest you go back, cut out the bg behind the people, use the smudge tool to get rid of rough edges and make things smooth/fade out more natural. Then it would be experimenting with the background and seeing what you get.

[Izar]

I Like it and that's what counts. Is it not my signature?

Andross: Top one is odd, can't tell what the right one is, 6/10. The bottom one I already rated. And the avatar is a bit out of place compared to your sig, but it's still the same rating.

[Elliott]

God you can be so stubborn and foolish sometimes Izar. Tou post here to get it rated, and when you don't like the rating you snap back with the old "it's my signature and thats what counts" crap. Grow up.

In rating it, let me just say I agree 100% with Andross, and I'll give it a 4.

The "stock" Doom 3 render I was working with didn't transfer well brightness/contrast wise. If you find a demon pic from Doom 3 that has better contrast, let me know. The game is so dark that it can be pretty hard to find a creature that actually has *gasp* lighting :P

[Illidan]

Andross:

Your avatar is ok. I like the effects. Other than that there isn't really much to it. 8/10. As for your signature, the text style is average but the effects are good. Nice pixel choice, and the banner is well established. 8/10.

Overall rating: 8/10. Nice.

But your avatar is uh... strange.

Your losing t3h plot d00d. lol. And the n00bs around here have gotten to me... Now Im speaking there language :wub:

Kidding, it looks great, especially with that faded out bit in the back ground. Can't slide nothin' by me when it comes to FF :P

9.9/10 - (-.1 becasue I don't even think you know who your using :wub: )

[Master Firebender]

agatio ur sig is okay, kinda strange brushing but its cool 8/10

MR omg urs is so cool I cant believe my eyes O_O 100/10 :P

the person in my sig is from Vampire hunter D, so dont ask what he is from...please :wub:

[Papercut]

What is the person in your sig from?

Anyway, I'll give it a 7/10 (avatar and sig) because while the sig alone could get an 8 for being sorta cool, the avatar drags it down to a 7 for looking like a drawing from the 80's. It's just my opinion but I really hate that look.

[Master Firebender]

I was gonna make a new avie but got lazy to lol, ur kidding about where the person is from right -.-

[Elliott]

Of course he is, for god's sake >_> .

People cross da street watching me with binocularrrrrs!

[Elliott]

Here's some random Anime avatars.

Please note:
I don't like anime.
I don't watch anime.
I'm not an anime fan.
I don't know who these characters are.

[Mycarayne]

The only Anime I watch, and have ever watched, is Full Metal Alchemist. Gotta love a kid who goes around turning things into other things :wub:

Anyway, they all look pretty good I guess. This aint coming from an Anime fan though: Get Illidan :P

Anubis: Is that font Sumdumgai? I love that name.

Some-dumb-guy. *laughs*
Anyway, it looks similar.
Set: (The red one): 9/10. Nothings perfect, though, that comes close.

Ph34r the matching set! *headbangs*
MR: It's ok. The avatar is good, but the quality could be better.
Signature is boring, not a text only fan I'm afraid.
4/10 overall.

[Mycarayne]

*explains self*

the reason why you see a non-cool non-pic sig, is becasue yours truely cannot come up with a new one. So I've been making crappy little phrases for the time being.

New sig Agatio? Background effect is nice, but the foreground charcter is... not you :P

[Elliott]

I can make you one MR. Give me an image and some basic spec. Post em here or PM me. :P

[Mycarayne]

Thanks but no thanks.
I've only had one sig ever made for me and dammit, it's gonna stay that way :P

Nah it's Furious Ming from a Jade Empire. It's an awesome XBOX role playing game, anyone who has the brick should go and buy it.

Agatio -- The ava and set match, so that makes it good anyway. but the sig is a but simple, the render is nice, bg is quite nice too, but needs more... depth. and more layers... it's a tad plain. 7/10

Anubis -- Bg and render are very good.. but the text really ruins it. its to thin, and the color and blending options really makes it out of line with the sig. 8/10, if u change the text, 9/10

Quite trying to get away with being rude, it's annoying, and you have no right to tell me to grow up. I wasn't complaining about Andross's post, I was just saying my signature is the way I like it.

Black Mage: Sig is a bit plain, but FF1 blackmages did own! 6/10

Izar -- not fond of it. simple, the text is bad, and the scans have too high opicity... 7/10

New siggy, this time the style is way different, again its experimenting.

[Yuki]

Neo, it's a nice color, nice picture, the txt fits it. Very nice =) i give it a 8/10. Although I like your sig, I think you should have put some text on your avatar. =/ that's the only reason why you got 8/10 (overall) rather than 9/10 from me...not to mention that your avatar looks a little blurred compared to your sig...

[Linear]

@Yuki: Nice avatar of Raven from T-T. It looks a bit sad when it's head is down, but then again, we all use avies. And the Sig. matches the avatar since you added the other space, nd the lyrics on it is nice too. (And sad). The font cuts off sometimes, but the lyrics are really good.
The little animations below it is funny. XD I would give it an 8/10 in all. o.O

Well Lin, it wasn't cut off, I made it that way. Thank you, I liek the animations too and it's supposed to be sad...it's...RAVEN...the goth of the teen titans. The reason for this set if because I took a quiz to see what Teen Titans character I woudl be, and it said Raven. So...here is my set.

Well, Lin, you're sig and avie are OKAY...like the avie NO I DID NOT TAKE IT how can u accuse me of that >>''' nice...kinda...nevermind...hard to explain. 7.6/10 =/

And actually, I didn't add the extra space. I made it smaller. so HA!!!! DOUBLE HAAAA!!!!!!!!! u.uV

[Linear]

@.@ When I meant by space is when you made the sig.

[Isaac13]

why did I choose this path? I shouldn't have. Now I'm lost between confusion and death...

Nice signature Isaac. It's really cool. I'm a personal big fan of star wars, but isn't it a bit...big? anyways, 6/10 (overall)

Words are depressing...but...i understand why...

[Isaac13]

Heh, thanks. I like it myself! No, not that big. This I know. Haven't been hounded about it yet, and that's it's normal size, and I'm not changing it.

[Yuki]

...okeh i never said change it, i was just suggesting it. Jeez...

[TobiasMar]

Isaac13: I'm another big star wars fan myself, and I really do like your set, but the problem is your sig image is too tall. 7/10

[Linear]

@I13: The quote is understanding and sad. (But we can all agree with the reason why). The image is good, but the Avie looks a bit o.O; "hmm" like. But both are still good. 6.9/10

@Gimli: It is the Space! It looks kinda flashy too. x.x; The effects on it are good, and somehow both the avatar and the sig seems to be really into the space zone (Don't ask what I mean XD My secret) 6.9/10

[Wiflewood]

OOoh, I like that Lin, the colours work really well together, and the lines at the edge are a nice touch too.

9/10

[TobiasMar]

Lin- Well, I haven't been paying attention to your set changes recently, but now that I ntoice yours, I think its real good 9/10

[Excalibur's Power]

Linear--O_O;;, Good, 8/10

[Elliott]

Lin: The text is hard to read, and it looks as though the image has been lightened causing the colours to look bad. Border is simple but ok. Overall 6/10 for your set.

Gimli: 1, get better at photoshop.

EP: Good concept, but you didn't excecute it quite well enough. Colours clash and text looks bad. 5/10 for set.

[Mycarayne]

Lin- Nice. Matching, Anime, "Light guardian", unique. Meh, always the same. In a good way ;) Set: 8/10

Agatio: Cool. A definite symbol of APS skills.

GtG: Why have "forum(s)" if you know there is more that one? Just have "Other cool forums", k? Set; 7/10/ Your getting better I guess ;)

Wiflewood: I've always been a fan of ligtning bolts, even though I've never used'em. 8/10

Yuki: Granted, you used MS paint (correct?), so something mind-blowing isn't expected. I guess it's okay. I little plain, and I don't really want to read it, so: 7/10.

EP: Nice as always. Your incredibly skilled in my opinion. 9/10

[Echo_djinn]

Lin: Your avatar it just nice. The picture inside of it is sick and fits nicely in the avatar box 9.5/10. Your sig is just a bigger version of your avatar so what I said before sticks with it as well 9.5/10. You and anime go together like hockey goes with Canadians. The was for PDM. :) 9.5/10 Set. Nice job.

[TobiasMar]

Lin: I see you made an avatar change yet again. Well, your new one is better than the last one IMO. 9/10
Same goes for sig. 9/10
Set is 9/10 (for the set, I just average the ratings of the Sig and avatar if anyone wants to know)

[Neo]

Gimli, I guess for you its becoming time for a change. 5/10, too large and a not that good effect

[Linear]

@ Neo: It reminds me of Hawaii for a funy reason. But I like the colors! (I like the blue and the mix of green! Gimme a break!!) And I like the leaves a lot too. Both the avatar and the siggy look normal and yet awesome. Vn.nV I love that ... (BUT it still reminds me of Hawaii for an odd reason...and Fall) 9/10

[Elliott]

Lin: I don't like that inner glow, or the text, the image looks a little poor in quality, but it matches your avatar. 6/10 for your set.

[Izar]

Linear - 8/10 Wierd glow, but ok none the less. It's a bit odd around the edges too. 8/10

[Neo]

Izar, I haven't rated your song yet -- 7/10, mostly due to the fact I don't really like songs about God, or any other religious character. but the text itself is quite good.

[Elliott]

Neo, your set is way below your usual standards. I can tell they are very basic, default brushes you are using, and the colour scheme is really bad. 3/10 for set.

[Neo]

wha.. what? oh no, my first bad grade ever ^^
I just wanted to try something simple, and yes, its a basic brush set. hm... Im actually way to lazy to start designing now, so you'll have to do it with this :)

[Izar]

Love Guardian Yuki - 5/10 Kinda, Plain, but it's a set, I give you that.

ED: I think I already rated yours, but I think it's a bit unorganized. 5/10 I like Sonic though!

Woocha, new set dude.

[Black Mage]

hmm, ill give Izar 7/10, its a little plain

[Elliott]

Izar, try some contrast, that text is ugly and hard to read. The bevel and emboss on the upper image looks shocking, and the colours for both are bad also. As for the avatar, why choose a 102x102 avatar when it gets shrunk to 100x100?? Anyway, 2.7/10 for the set.

[Izar]

I don't like the Embossing effects. And the avatar is sopposed to be 100 by 100, it's just that Paint Shop Pro makes it bigger for some odd reason. 2.7/10? Are you pinning me? I see sorry ones all over the place, and you rate them 6/10 and so on. You seem a bit biased.

[Black Mage]

er, can someone plz rate my avatar and sig

[Elliott]

*sigh* I've lost of how many times I have said this. If you want your set rated, rate someone elses first.

Your sig is just, crap. Image is poor quality and oversize, and the quote is very not funny. Avatar looks stretched and also low quality, plus it doesn't match.

Overall 2/10 for the set.

[Black Mage]

I had already rated Izars set and i was waiting for mine to be rated

agatio, ill give you a 4/10 for yours

and yes, i realize mine isnt that great, ill change it later, but im too lazy to do it right this second

and 8-bit theatre isnt supposed to be "great quality", its just supposed to be funny :P

[Izar]

Black Mage: Poor Quality... paint? I can make a better one, or ask Andross. 4/10 cuz it's a bit funny.

[Black Mage]

Blue Mage? Im BLACK mage you fool, BLAAAAACK :P

[Izar]

Lol, Sorry, i'll edit that. :P XD Keep the post on the line though. Got used to 13lue Mage. <_<

Anyways, Like I said, or was gunna say, get Paint Shop pro, or better yet, photoshop.

[Black Mage]

here we go, my new set. someone want to rate this (i already rated izar)

maybe someone besides agatio rate me this time

[Elliott]

I like the new sig image better than the last, though it's a little small. Text is nice, maybe change the colour though. Avatar is again stretched, try entering in the actual image dimensions to counter that.

6/10 for this set, it's a little better.

[TheDogWho]

New avatar of the day, feat. Wifle.

[Izar]

Much better Black Mage. 7/10. Dunno why, but yeah. it's a bit small though.

The DogWho: Bad quality, but I guess it can be a bit funny, depending on the situation. 5/10

[TobiasMar]

Izar- I like the avatar and sig banner. They look like buttons. 7/10

[Echo_djinn]

I decided to go back to the old sig I had before but pick up my next interest in the Spider-man movies. So as my avatar I put a old friend back up.

Black Mage: 6/10 The avatar could be a little bit more clearer.

[Elliott]

Quote

You seem a bit biased.

No, I'm not, if you don't like getting critical ratings then stop posting in this topic.

ED: Signature image is nice, but the text below puts me off it. Maybe removing the sprite and making both lines of text the same colour would improve it/ Avatar is distorted, blurry, and doesn't match, that brings your set down. 4/10.

[Wiflewood]

Love the new set 'gatio, Looks like some ancient pannel in a spacecraft/temple. The text really contrasts with the ancient theme and is clean and clear.
10/10
Only critique is with the avvie, its just a block, and doesn't really give you a face, and its a bit of an odd image for an avatar if you get what I'm talking about.
8/10

[Tetsu]

You have both a nice banner and avatar wiflewood.

9/10

Avatar could use a little more work since it is so similar to the banner. :P

[Papercut]

I like em both. For some reason, the art style reminds me of RPGs from back when I was a kid.

[Neo]

Papercut; the avatar isn't that good, but the siggy is. nice use of vector. looks good. 8/10

[Elliott]

It's not Vector I'm pretty sure

Filter > Blur > Gaussian Blur > 7.0 > Edit > Fade Gausian Blur > Mode = Darken > 100%

Love the new siggy Neo. Good colours, and nice blending.

[Wiflewood]

Yeh, good one Neo, cool 'techno' look to it. I like the different eyes in the background.

9/10

[M@ni@c]

Neo: 9/10

I'll never figure out how to do that...I'm no good at brushing. :P
...
And I sure as hell have no idea of how to work with layer masks.

[Wiflewood]

Yours is Ok I guess, the Font is cool, but it looks too busy down the left end of the Sig.

I added a little Get firefox thing to my sig. (I finally have it!)

[Neo]

Agatio, you are right. I just got commented by a friend who noticed I thougth it was vector, my fault.

[TobiasMar]

Neo Genesis- Cool set. I will say no more. 9/10

[Elliott]

Wiflewood: You have too much going on in that sig, 2 images maximum on forums. And you have 3 that are all different sizes. Then there's the text which stand out too much. The main image is ok, but those symbols on the right stand out too much without the scanlines on it. Avatar is good because it suits. Overall I will give your set a 6.8/10.

[Nemphtis]

Agatio: Var dark and plain, it involves text, and some image thingy. Not enough to wet my apetite. 5/10

[TheDogWho]

Nice quote on your sig, and I like the background and the random flashing too. The guy could do with little less white edging but otherwise, it's great.
8/10

[Nemphtis]

Yeah the white edging came with the image unfortunately. I agree though, too much of it makes it look weird.

[TobiasMar]

Anubis: Nice, I really like the lightning flash thing in your sig and avatar. 10/10

[Elliott]

Gimli: 1

Anubis: The background is pretty bland, the the blending of the character is non-existant. Text is boring, the only saving grace is that they match. 5/10 for set.

[Izar]

Woohoo, I got a new set. I like it much better.

Agatio: Have no clue what it is for, but it's actually pretty good. 8/10 because the avatar is too plain.

Anubis: It's bad... I like the Splinter Cell one best. Text is good though, I give it a 7/10. Bad quote too.

Neo: Hmmm, the color and all is great, but the face is wierd... 8/10 because the blueish eyes next to the face rock.

[Elliott]

Dark Tranquillity = The best band in the entire friggin world mmkomfgwtfkthxbai...

Izar: Avatar gets a 4. The scanlines are too visible, the colours aren't that great, this ruins the actual image. A black border would have been better, and maybe lower saturation. Signature image 1 gets a 2. Again with the scanlines,and that text is near impossible to read. Signature image 2 gets a 2, it's is very bland, text again hard to read, and bg very plain. Quotes are unneeded, and why the light blue? Think about the people using the mercury skin. Overall I give your set a 4 (added the numbers and halfed it).

[Izar]

I can read the text perfectly fine. It says RPG Strike, dude. check your eyes, j/k. The quotes are always there, you should know that. And Image 2 is just there as a link, I don't care about that one.

[Elliott]

How did I know you would come back like that? Checked the topic title? It's called "Sig, Avatar, And Set Rating Topic,". What did I do? I rated your "Sig, Avatar, And Set". Don't get so defensive.

[Izar]

I can get defensive if i wish to, in fact, I am always defensive. I was commenting on your rating.

Gimli: I think I already rated yours, but... I dunno. 6/10 because t's very plain and average. But the background is neat.

[Nemphtis]

Hmm, mine is that bad? I guess you don't notice some stuff unless you look at it from the outside. Okay, advice taken, guess I'll make a new one in a few days. :rolleyes:

[Mathak Kraven]

You all have such god sigs and avs, just to et you know I'm getting some new one so these aren't the official ones.

[Elliott]

New set, ditched the image in the sig and a new avatar (cropped the album art of the new Agony Scene album. Not expecting high ratings, but I like it :rolleyes: .

Mathak: Your signature is too tall. Kinda humerous, but still too tall, I'd leave it at the top image and 1 line of text tops. Avatar very amatuear, overall a 4/10 for the set.

[TobiasMar]

Meh, I think your new avatar is pretty cool Agatio. 8/10

[Mathak Kraven]

On Invision boards, I don't see musc problem with clutter. especially not with sigs, because the info on the right stratches so much already.

Tobias, yours looks kinda swell. I'll give it a 8.5/10 for now. I'm generous.

[l3lueMage]

Mathak yours is pretty cool Nice colors, I just dont like the double border. 9/10

[Izar]

Agatio:
Sig - Comepletly crappy words. -10/10
Avatar - What is it? All it is, is a piece of paper with like, shadowy effects. 4/10, but the image was done well, I'll give you that.

l3lueMage:
Sig - Nice, the effects rule. 9/10 because it's just a bit plain.

Mathak Kraven:
Sig - Nice image, and the Hammertime is hilarius, cuz it reminds me of the Mad TV episode making fun of him. 9/10

[Elliott]

Dude, I actually said what the avatar was in my post.
Nice render in your sig bluemage, but the colour is a miss.

[Izar]

You said you cropped the album art of the new Agony Scene album. But you never said what it was sopposed to be.

[Elliott]

Quote

Silhouette of a crow against what looks to be a piece of paper with writing on it, also spots of blood can be seen too.

[Izar]

Oh. I was thinking it was a demon with angel wings, lol.

Ok, now that I know what it is, I think I can manage. :rolleyes:

[l3lueMage]

tell me what u think of these two sigs.

http://img261.echo.cx/img261/4539/bluesig3vw.jpg

http://img261.echo.cx/img261/402/yellowsig4rl.jpg

[Elliott]

Just as soon as you actually follow the topic by rating someone else's set.

[l3lueMage]

Izar I like the second one, but try putting the render above the scanlines xd 9/10 the first one is cool though kinda looks like you exported to lower quality then high 9.5/10

[Mathak Kraven]

Bluemage, yours is very nice. I like the kind of colouring, and I liked the bottom one of the one you posted. Agatio, we can't get too much fed up with rating the above persons sig, then don't rate his, and rate the one above it, we need no fuss.

Bluemage : 9.5/10

[Wiflewood]

Odd Avatar, and I don't like the dancing guy, but the Image is cool, nice use of colours. 7/10

New Set!

[Izar]

Yeah, I don't know what went wrong in the first one, It looked perfect in Paint Shop Pro, Oh well, I guess all I can do is work harder. Thanks.

[TobiasMar]

Wifle: Dunno why, but I do like your new set alot. 9/10

[Blink]

Ah...Gimli the great...your set up reminds me so much of three years ago. I was just experimenting with gamemaker, and the first tutorial was on making a Meteor game. The backgrounds all had stars, nebuli, and lenseflares, and it all had a very mystical theme to it. It's something that's always stuck in my mind, an unforgettable feeling. It's kind of like my game design youth, which all began one summer, very close to three years ago today.

Many thanks for reviving that wonderful memory Tobias, 10/10 for emotional attatchments :P

[Elliott]

Very small & amateaur avatar Blink. Signature is similar, just a little .gif with some text next to it, nothing special. 3/10 for set.

[Nemphtis]

Avatar: 3/10 No idea WTF that is.

Sig: At least that makes sense. 5/10

[Izar]

The little light bar going up and down is annoying, but the image is good. 5/10 for the set anubis.

5/10 for the avatar, blink. It's really bad quality.

[Elliott]

Awesome set Anubis, the going up and down thing (whatever you call it) is great, how did you do it? Since it matches and the images rock, 9/10 for set.

[Neo]

the bar anubis is using can be made with Adobe Imageready, a little animation program which comes with Photoshop. it's fairly easy to make, though you do have to learn all the basics. you also can, however, start messing around like me and learn some new things :P
Looks great Anubis -- 9/10

Agatio -- strange avatar, but I do like it. 8/10

[Nemphtis]

Yeah it's quite easy Agatio, you can even probably figure it out yourself since you can work out what I did just by looking at my sig. I could make the scan bar scan things in Black & White etc. but I thought instead I'd make it make things glow as it looked cool. I've just recently started messing with ImageReady so I'm just exploring simple animations. :P

I've always gone for simple sigs personally, I like things that look plain yet complex.

[Izar]

:lol: Ha, I find it annoying, but the effect is somewhat neat. The image rules. If it was just that, it would rule. ^_^ I had that program too, cracked from a friend, but I touched it only twice before I whiped my hardrive clean. And yes, the plain-yet-good ones just rock.

Ever notice that when it touches the top, it bounces imediately, but when it bounces from the bottom, it take longer? :P I just noticed it.

I got a new one, It's a metal band called Norma Jean. My Favorite metal band.

I don't think there is much to rate. Any one got any new ones I haven't seen? :)

[Black Mage]

Hey yeah, i just noticed that too :lol:

Heres my new set for now. Im experimenting with different sets to see what goes best, so you might see me change it around once in a while

Izar - 6.5/10

[Izar]

lol, that line is familiar "Surrender your soul to the eternal chaos lord"

Nice one, the image is small though, BM, maybe a larger banner is needed. 7.5/10

EDIT: Also, I made a funny little image on my sig. :P

[Elliott]

Izar: Signature image is a little off in it's dimensions, try cropping a certain part of it maybe? Usuaully 125px is the max height for a signature image. Text as usual is bland, and linking to topics on GSSF, in a GSSF signature isn't real needed. I don't quite understand what your getting at with the FF/IE image either. Overall 4/10 for the set, it's just not that appealing.

[Izar]

The Mozilla Explorer. It's sopposed to be humorus. You know, IE and Mozilla, Sorry vs Great... It will never happen.

The image it's self is a CD cover image, and so is my avatar. I did VERY little editing to either one (just added a border to the avatar)

[Elliott]

Quote

The Mizilla Explorer

Mozilla Firefox*
And I hope you're not implying E is in any way better :P .

[Izar]

No, the Mix of Firefox and IE = Mozilla Explorer, get it? :lol:

Ha, no, That's the point of the Image. IE and Mozilla can never be in the same league. Mozilla Owns IE. period. End of Story. The End. Cut. Ok, you get the picture.

I'm gunna do the same with Firefox and Netscape, just not now.

Why is everyone into dark signatures all the time? Oh well, At least I stand out. :P

[Black Mage]

FF and IE, thats funny. Although it wil probably never happen

Ill give you +1 points for that. 7.5/10

Oh yeah, and i changed the quote in my sig :P

[Elliott]

You see, humor on the internet in the form of text very rarely works, especially in signatures. Images and audio are the way to make people laugh online. Image has whacked dimensions, try 500x100 or 460x80. Avatar is very un-avatarish, and doesn't match the signature. 4/10 for set.

[Black Mage]

Okey dokey, lets take a look at your set now.

Avatar looks like crap, very "un-avatarish" as you would say. Also doesnt match sig, which is a bunch of words. How boring

1/10

[Elliott]

Hmm, I wonder why you rated my set so low? </sarcasm>
Very immature. I gave you honest feedback and ways in which you could improve, you gave bias tripe just to annoy me, well done.

[Black Mage]

yeah, well annoying people is what i do :P
