#1: You could put the person a little in front of the sig, but nice sig

#2: Good effects and good picture, awesome

#3: Matrix style hm? Too much effects, i know that's wake with a z-10 and cobra but it's hard see it well

#4: Simple

#5: Sexy

Tried a new sig. I somewhat got layering down and experimented a lot with gradients. Accidentally used a gradient that produced that dark side, and it worked out fairly well I think. I think it's much better than my first one. However, the one gripe I have with it now is that it doesn't seem to have a focal point. But when I tried to make something standout, it would stand out too much. Oh well. Constructive criticism and suggestions are greatly appreciated.

And, if possible, I would like a comparison between my first (current sig) and this one with pros(if any) and cons to see any real improvements.

It does have a focal point. When we work on things too long we begin to see them different than someone else would (a "fresh eye"). Come back to it in a few hours, or even a day and you will see things different about it than you did before. Right now, my eye is drawn straight to the text because of the strong contrast it has with the dark are behind it. I like the colors and the text in this sig more than your old one. I still think (as I said before) that this one also has a lot of "empty space." While there is some activity like the light effect, I don't think it is enough to fill the gap, or make it interesting enough.

Edit:

Pros:
Better color
Improved text
More subtle

Cons:
Less interesting composition (imo)

Not much else really...

I forgot about this thread... people should really use this more with all the random questions that get asked. It was nice having a sort of general chatter about random graphic things...

Too bad no one reads the stickies, haha.

r u 4 grafics chats?

Maybe have the second orb in the first logo.

Here's my crack at the tutorial Ryan showed us. I got pissed off at the lens flare step so I quit there and this is what I ended up with.

Don't blame me, blame the tutorial

Yes it is

I kinda like this one better. The space dust/nebula stuff whatever you want to call it is only illuminated by the explosion. I added a moon.


Right click > view image so you can actually see the dust clouds.

Moon needs to be further away, and the planet/comet/asteroid hitting the earth seems too hidden. It's hard to see.
