[QUOTE="iskeethunters"][QUOTE="IcyToasters"][/QUOTE] Never, ever put text in corners. And nice work. Never seen someone come with so many versions.[/QUOTE]
Why not in corners?[/QUOTE] Focal point most likely.
- Need a new signature, particularly one involving Game of Thrones. I need one with either the House Stark logo and the phrase "Winter is Coming" or one with Eddard Stark with his sword looking into the wind. Can my username be off to the side, in a minimalistic sort of way....in an old english sort of type font appropriate for the content. Thanks in advance GS!!! You guys are schweet :)

[QUOTE="IcyToasters"][QUOTE="iskeethunters"][QUOTE="IcyToasters"][/QUOTE] Never, ever put text in corners. And nice work. Never seen someone come with so many versions.[/QUOTE]Why not in corners?But thank you for any tips. I'm not too great at picture editing, but improving on it to be able to help out some people is nice :]I figured it looks fine for a signature, 'cause it's down in the corner like a signature.Maybe if it was brought up from the corner a bit. Though I like where it is in the one metroidprime55 went with.I thought of doing the name someone more centered, like somewhere that Samus' eyes or gun point to, but the cropping didn't lend too well to it!(if you want my to move it around metroid, tell me!)[/QUOTE] I used to place it in corners too, but I got heavily criticized for it by design forums. Text should be part of the focal or near it. I've seen a lot of tutorials on this but I can't seem to find one right now. Also, try using more than just 1 text box. For example here, you can split up metroid prime into 2. Let's say a white line saying METROID, and beneath it a shiny yellow line saying PRIME that also has a bigger font size so that the width is the same. Hope you understand what I said there. And you could also put a really big 55 next to these 2 lines. Make it as tall as both the lines one over another.

Ah, okay. I figured something similar to that. Especially the focal point part.But eh :p I think it could be done right or wrong either way.
Maybe I'll mess around with some text when I get home to get an idea of how to make some. I can picture what you mean and it could look nice.
Thanks for the tips! - Mar 22, 2012 12:54 am GMT

I had no idea there was a request thread in gs OT. I may have actually come here if I did.
Mac, I would have helped you with the header, but the image quality is not something that would fit my area of design.

Just spent about 20 minutes putting together this sig earlier today :)
what do you guys think?
rate sig and avy ;)
- Mar 29, 2012 1:21 pm GMT

Hi guys. I have a request if anyone's intrested.
I want a sig and avy with pictures or artwork of Jaime Lannister from the book series " A Song of Ice and Fire " and the HBO adaption " Game of Thrones " .
I want it to be mostly in red or yellow. It should look something like my current sig. Character picture or artwork on the right side, and the text " A Union of Ice and Fire " on the right.
If you guys have any questions, feel free to PM me, and thanks in advance! :D
- Mar 29, 2012 9:52 pm GMT

So how would you guys rate my sig? I've had it for ages and will never change. It was hand drawn specifically for me to use on these forums:D
Can you guess what the idea for it was?
edit: hand drawn AND animated

Sweet Dream FMU. We will miss your blocky goodness.
Oh look, I'm posting.
You should screen cap this, As I never post anymore. Unless, of course you don't care. Which, in that case, good, I guess, be that way. See if I care. Also sign up for the Planetside 2 Beta while you're still breathing. And get a hat in TF2. mmk.Well, first sig I ever made myself... rate and please be brutally honest.
the main problem I have with it, is that Its not sized well, is it?
I'm still happy though. :P
Bonus points if you can guess where besides tf2 I got my inpiration.

Thanks Shadow, it looks pretty cool. :D

Thoughts on my avy/sig?
- Apr 1, 2012 8:01 am GMT
I really like both of them even though the space may seem empty, it looks very good. I don't know what to add because adding stuff might ruin it.

is this okay?
