    That's borderline ripping, I can't say I appreciate that sig because it's just recoloring the boxes in that stock and slapping text on it, then brushing a little black around the edges.
    Sorry man, but get more creative. Great compo, but... you can't just steal someone else's work like that.

    Edit: and looking at your current sig (other than this one) I can tell you can definitely do better.

    Et Tu?

    I'm not going get into the 'ripping', etc.

    The only thing I'd change is toning down the contrast.
    It isn't ideal for B&W as there seems to be too much black.
    Good work, I guess you could've been more creative.

    Less is more ^u^

    I would call it stealing if you shouldve done this to a deviantart pic etc... But this is a google pic.

    So give him a break, his just fooling around for trying to create his new style, hes trying to get into manipulation >u< Just warm up. Hes got a apple egg on developing ^u^

    Well as I said in my first one, simple and clean, my kinda style... cousin

    It's not that I don't like it, I really do, it's a nice sig. Simple, a bit over contrasted as previously said, but nice nonetheless.

    Despite this, someone did take that picture, and changing some of the colors and putting text on it, basically claiming it as your own, is not acceptable imo... maybe for a beginner signature maker, but for Meew, who you can see has talent just by looking at his other current sig, I can't consider this a decent display of talent or style.

    This isn't a new style... this is what we call recoloring imo, and while he definitely did a good job at it, you can do a bit more and still keep it minimalistic and simplistic, the right effects could really make this interesting and eye catching!

    Besides all that, I don't really like the text, it shouldn't be shoved in the corner like that, especially when there's so much room to place it.

    This was going to be a submission to an official contest. I wouldn't have appreciated seeing such little effort put into something we take very seriously. Experimental; that's fine. Submitting a piece that is 98&#37; not yours to an official battle (or intent to) is something I shake my head at.

    I'm glad you were fortunate enough not to be able to submit this piece; I would definitely have had something to say about it.
