Title: New Sig
Post by: bustinthejustin on January 01, 2009, 06:25:19 PM

Okay I was getting sick of my old sig, which really took like 5 minutes, so I made a new one. I found a tutorial for a really cool effect on words so I decided I would try it on a PSP. I think it could've turned out better, but oh well. Tips for improvement?

Maybe. It might end up being over-kill though. I might try applying the same effect but at a lower intensity (less flying bits, pieces, etc.) and it might look pretty good. I'll give it a try later tonight - thanks.

Made the background with a technique similar to the PSP. Is this an improvement?

The original probably took me only thirty minutes to an hour, because I'm really inexperienced with photoshop so it took me a while to figure things out, and I couldn't get the PSP looking the way I wanted, and then the extra background thing took like, 5 minutes, max.
