Beginner, need help on my sigs.

[arnob_detroitbasketball]

I suck, don't be that harsh :no1:. Here is my latest sig. Help really appreciated. Tell me If I did anything good, and leave A rating if you have the time. Hey, I can only get better.V1-

VERSION 2-

I don't like the yellow in it. Can you tell me what you used to make the sig so I could get a better background on your experience and tell you what you need to improve on/use.

You did ok - personally I think that pic of Chauncey is just horrid - he looks like ET or something.You got the BG ok for a beginner - the text is very beginner too - but thats totally normal and you get to know what looks better as you practice.For now - I think your next step is to learn how to color - I think you used hue & saturation - which is ok in moderation, but a lot of times it makes sigs look really plain. Try to use different things like Gradient Maps, regular gradients, shape blurs, photo filter. Also - I see you got a border down - its ok how you have it - but I personally think the blending mode you put it in looks bad. I would just leave it white normally.Good job man - keep practicing - this is a solid beginner sig - nothing really wrong with it.<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Can you tell me what you used to make the sig so I could get a better background on your experience and tell you what you need to improve on/use.</div>It looks like a chrome filter. Im guessing.

I used Gradient map. Want me to upload the PSD file on Rapidshare and show what I did?

I will try to change it a bit.

Maybe set that gradient map to overlay... it MIGHT look better.The background looks interesting but the color really hides it.

It looks A LOT better, thanks 7GOat. Everyone else thanks too for your comments. I made Chauncey Face little more wide too.Here is how it looks:

V2 is a great improvement. Try not using Scriptina in sigs, it generally doesn't look good if not executed well...simpler texts are better.
