Looking for new sig suggestions!

*notjustgraphics* · 11-01-2006

I see so many good suggestions given and since I am killing some time creating a new sig, i thought i'd get your opinions

I've attached what I've got so far....

Thanks for any input!

Mike.

Not sure about the font...but you definitely need to move the type slightly. One of the lightning bolts is interfering with the second letter T, so it looks like it reads NOT JUS-GRAPHICS.

Also, the middle area seems a bit empty.

Thanks Tamlin... here's a revision that takes your suggestions into consideration...

What do you think of this one?

**Tamlin** · 11-01-2006

Ah yes - much better. I still think there's something missing in the middle, but maybe that's just me...

the second one is much better, but I think you should put a shape or picture (with a lowered opacity perhaps) in the middle, as I agree with Tamlin on its "Emptiness"

Thanks for the comments guys... I agree that there is an empty space... I will work some more on it today and post the results!

Yep, i also think you should fill that empty space...
And i think you could maybe change the font....to something more shock like thing.

Ok, here is version #5 (The third to be posted).

I toyed with the idea of adding a shape or something distinct in the emptiness, but what would that shape be? I considered a lighthouse, a rhino (like my current sig) and some other things that relate to me.

The lighthouse was my favourite, and it might have worked but I found it took away from the text and the rest of the sig, so I ditched it...

I was working on another task which caused me to seek out the wonderful sparkle brushe, thanks to a tip from Manic Mog!

I find this fills the void without taking away from the lightning or the text...

Your comments?

it does, still feels a little empty, but I like it still, good job.

I think it is cool, maybe an embossed border would finish it..or whatever, it's your work, don't let us tell you how it should look

*notjustgraphics* · 11-03-2006

Ok here's version 7, Post #4 - you'll notice a few tweaks!

Thanks.
