Slipknot

I haven't done a sig in a while so I decided to try some today.

Not liking the animation much, but that's nothing personal. I don't like animation in sigs period.

I think you need some colour in them too. Keep at it though.

Thanx for the input. Ill remember that 4 next time :)

i gotta agree with dark method but im liking the sigs just for the fact that it has Slipknot. so gj

Anyway! The sigs (and the text) are a bit too large, and due to the depthless animation the renders are not blended. Sooo...not bad, keep trying.

for that style the text is just fine. arial, times, ect. wouldn't look good. it just needs to be toned down, a lot. keep in mind that the main focus of the sig is the stock (in this case) so you don't want the text to draw attention away from it. at the same time though it has to be readable.

for your sigs, the animation doesn't really seem to serve much purpose, just two backgrounds switching back and forth. and again, takes away from the stock by taking too much attention. the animation thing can be done and look good, but you'd want it to be more subtle if you're not animating the stock. they're also quite big, I go with a width somewhere in the 300s, but it's personal preference. keep at it, I see that the text in your current is pretty much perfect.

Haha I don't really like them that much...I just like their masks :)

nice work, sweet animations, just might wana size the sigs down a bit.
