Whats wrong with this one?

I just finished this sig and i thought that animating it would be cool... you be the judge.

I'd make the render a bit bigger and try to put it under the colorbalance layers either desaturated or on luminosity. The font you used for Antidote doesn't look that cool, but the overall layout is getting better! Good job! :D

i dont have that many fonts and i cant really tell which font would go bet with what sig.. its hard since im new to it...thanks for the C+C tho.. ill keep it in mind when i make my next sig.

do u use color balances? or do u hit crtl + u? id suggest using color balances if u dont..also make the render bigger so it takes up more space.. and every sig dont have to have a quote ;).. u know sites for fonts right?

THE RENDER WHAT?! EXCUSE ME!!!

I think its a bit basic, ide make the render bigger, its ok to have cut offs, and also next time hit control+B, then you can just toy with lightness and darkness, along with bg colors.

Try brushing over the render also, it looks like you lowered the opacity and feathered it, just brush the outsides and it will blend so much better, and look more natural too.

:o Make the render what?!

Get fonts at dafont.com

lmao my bad 'b' and 'n' are right by each other and i type to fast and dont read what i type..im not racist i go to a 80% black school..again sry i edited it

lol that was a very bad typo :P anyway, about the sig, i dont like the text, and it does look like you used Hue/Sat settings (color balance man!). Also, i dont really like the render, bigger or smaller, it doesnt appel to me :unsure:

Edit:Also you gotta stop with those quotes, most of the time they just kill your sig.

welll this is a nice job...
i think use more multi color will finish the bg....
but make the render bigger
i don't like the animation and the text you should work more on that..

Same.

Andanother bad stroke. Dude, when we say lay off the stroke, we don't mean make it smaller, we mean to LAY OFF the colored stroke =/

So what am i supposed to do? get a new quote or leave the quotes out?
Anyways thanks for the C+C guys... i will work on this sig after i get some more fonts.. any recomendations? well i will also change the stroke..but i think that its kinda hard to read if it doesnt have stroke.

THANKS FOR THE C+C GUYS AND THANKS FOR THE ENCOURAGMENT.

alright heres some suggestions

quote: get a short simple one, i got "mmm... Toasty" as one i sometimes use and dont have a bunch of "..." in it (AKA:Total Paranoia is Total Awareness). Makes it sound better, look better.

Fonts: one site - dafont.com. should be all the fonts you need. You can put in the word "ANtidote" in the 'custom preview' box. Then just skim through the types you want.

Stroke: You dont have to completely cut out stroke, just stop with the colored ones. I use stroke a lot in my sigs, but its always 1px black or white (depending on color of text).

Well i think that should clear some problems up, as those are the most frequent things people comment about with your sigs. Anyway, good luck with your next one, hopefully youll take everyones advice on it.

EDIT: about the quote, as Shamino says, its the SAME DAMN QUOTE. use a different one every now and then. Also another option is to have different ones depending on the "theme" of the sig.

THAT DESCRIPTIVE ENOUGH FOR YA!?!?!?! :P

i lost you in the first sentence toasty.. lol j/p.
Ok i try to follow everyones C+C and advice but not everybody has the same taste in art so..i do my best.. and as you can see i like the "..." but ill get new quotes and new themes.
Thanks for the fonts site and for the custom description.. did somebody pay yo to post here? it took you like 4 hours to write that C+C lol.

THanks everyone

Its good man, nice to see you using some animation in a sig, its not a bad effort just not sure if i like the font.
The stroke on the "antidote" doesnt look right, not sure if the colour works its a bit bright. You've done pretty well with blending the render as its your first time so well done :) the bg is pretty cool, just blending some more colours in?

All in all i give it 6.5

sorry if thats a bit low just not my style :D

Well, I can't read the animated writing (change the font). I also don't like the red stroke on your name. You could try turning the opacity down so the stroke isnt as... well, red.

The render is too small and dark, thus being hard to make out. I would advise changing the render alltogethor or adjusting its attributes.

so should i make the whole sig bigger or just the render? and what font should i use?
