hmmm uh... i dont like it too much
render is too big for canvas
background is a teency bit too simplistic
needs to blend more
text is placed badly i think and its too big
the colors are nice and some of the effects are kinda cool
overall 4.5/10 =(

yah i know some of it could be better, i'm a little rusty at this. Anybody else?

I suggest testing alot of different things before making a solid sig I know it's been awhile for you but this doesn't really flow wit me

i like the render but i think it is to big, if you maded it smaller and did a different type of bg like grunge it up or do like some tech stuff i think the render would work great. It overall just seems pretty simple, i like the beam and all the light coming from it colors are cool. Good job for being off lol

i originally had it as an animation so the beam got bigger and took over the whole sig but it didn't turn out lol. Maybe i'll go back and try again.

I think its like the ten trillion other halo tags I've seen. It's still quite pretty though.
