pretty nice, the bg could use a little work, not a big fan of it. the text looks cool, over all not bad!
also, welcome the forums! why not intoduce your self in the indroduction thread?
It's not bad at all... the background is a bit plain and grainy. "Infadel" is kinda neat but it's really hard to read, even when you know what it says, and it might stand out just a little too much. Other then that great job man! And welcome to GFX Void, hope you stay around!
ahhh yes.... backgrounds i'm really not very good at backgrounds .. i hardly ever have background ideas.... im also really really new to brushing and stuff....
can anyone tell me how they go about doing their backgrounds? thx alot
P.S thx for the warm welcome :P will post in the introductions post :P
mmm villian, anything in particular you dont like? Or do you just generally think its for recycling bin?
P.S love your sig man, very unique
It looks nice and all but for brushing use constuctive randomness of brushes and brush sets. The background really really bites. Also I would like to know where you got that text i love it.
no not for the bin lolz i just dont like how its all blue and so blue lolz
and ty for ur comment :)
hehe yeah :P the text is called "a theme for murder" and i think i got it from www.dafont.com :P it can be a crappy font some times... some of the letters are cramped very close together and you have to fiddle around and set different spacings for each letters.
and what u think i should try for a background? usually i would just render some clouds and go from there but i got bored of that......
try using some brushes :)
I have that font, lol... I don't think I've ever used it though. Infidel try using some brushing for a background. I know there's a large resources thread around here somewhere with some links to some great brushes on DA, so I'll try to find it for ya.
Edit: Here ya go, http://forums.gfxvoid.com/t-7341.htm

Anyways I like everything- and the BG is alright. Good to have that little font animation in there too, looks good bro.
thanks for the link blaze :D i'll definately check that out.... shame i cant edit that sig (the WoW one) as i've merged all the layers and saved it.... i HATE it when i dont un-merge them before i save <_<
and thanks shamino :P

Sorry for double post =/
The background is kinda weak, but over all, it's pretty cool. I can't figure out how to do that font animation you got going on there, but I like it.
the font animation lol.... that caused me so much hassle its unbelievable! i saw something similar on someone elses sig and thought i would try copy it...
what i did was make a thin rectangular selection and fill it with a white > transparent gradient fill (the bar kind... so it kinda looks like a cylinder). (the text itself is transparent btw, it has an inner glow tho) so i merged all the layers and selected the text layer then inverted the selection. i then copied everything in the selection into a new layer on top of the white > transparent gradient fill i made earlier. so it left the text area transparent so you can see the gradient bar. then i jumped to image ready and just tweened the gradient from the left to the right of the text....
sorry i know thats not very clear but its hard to explain....
and the hassle i had with it.... you see in the middle of the sig where the background doesnt quite match the rest, and a sligh discoloration or the gnomes hand (it also looks kinda blurry).... well that was where i made a white > transparent gradient bad right in the middle of the sig and then couldnt get rid of it (long story)... so i had to paint over it lol =/ i was so pissed off
