Hey Guys I'm gonna make a SIG Kickstarter!

I am an OLD school sig designer from 2006 (the site I used died long ago DEADLYFIREGFX.com). I am working to make sigs HUGE again and promote sites like GFXvoid, as well as, cool sig designers. If you guys wanna help ping me.
The Kickstarter I am working on will sell the first ever printed SIGs

I will name drop all the sites in the video. so look for GFXvoid in the video. If you wanna help make a sig there are only 10 in total. so ping me.

I will eventually have a GFX BLOG that promote designers, and there home site! I plan on creating an echo system to build up sites... the biggest sites will profit "more" and little sig sites will pop up once again. Lets get SIGS back to where they were!!!!

Who is going to buy a printed sig...

Anyone who wants to set it in a (patent pending) re-usable bracelets or Pendent.
I'm making them in the following dimensions: 400x130 and amine 400x180
Printed at 200DPI designers "could" print up all their own work then use the case.

Hagen,

I would respect your opinion a little more if you had a sig. I am investing in people who like sigs.
It's just a bracelet that looks cool. What if I created rubber band bracelets that when removed returned into shapes? wouldn't that be a waste of money?
I think this might be bigger then painted bottle caps that made $1,000,000 or rubber bands that made 1 billion.

It is worth the effort. It's gonna be tough and I need everyone's help so Hagen I am sorry if I trolled back a bit.

But in all seriousness I STILL don't understand what the hell you're on about. Sig... Bracelets? How the shit does that ever work? I really don't think it's going to make millions...

If it doesn't make over a million you are right.
I'll send the first screen shot of the key chain prototype up here on voidGFX.

I've been pinging alot of sites... if you could PM me some I missed it would help...

EDIT: working on youtube video

So you're making a bracelet, and then putting a signature in a key chain and attaching that to the bracelet?

I Made a key chain case, I need to raise funds for the bracelet prototype because it might be a better "lead out". I might just sell the key chain I am still working on strategy.
The site will be a blog/shop. to promote designers and there home site.

Does this work? Please forgive my wiggle FAIL camera work

It's somewhat interesting I guess, although looks a little long for a single signature.
I don't get why anybody would want one though.

You are correct.
I was a 400x100 sig designer so I "Intended to make this without sharing the concept/idea and shoot for 120.
It came out to be 110 in height. so When I re-do it I'll make it 130 and the anime 180.
I fell old school sig designers like me could add 15 pixel borders.

Why want one?
Imagine a 200DPI doc of your best work...8.5x11
every solid sig you ever made on a single page printed as a photo. print one page ($3.00?) and you're set.
NOTE: don't stretch to fit

This is how I discovered the idea.
Looking for work I had a ton of sigs so I added them to my portfolio and they stole the show. They were so blown away it actually derailed the interview.
They skipped over my trifold brochure work and returned to the stamp like sigs.

100 - 130 in height is rather stupidly small. I actually started out making signatures at around that and it just doesn't work.

It was "socially" unacceptable to make even a 105px sig. FAIL.
I made some 120's and noted that anime/video games were 150 back then.
I must respect the 100's because if this "worked" then a site that has no sigs might be more open to 130 then a big jump to 180.
You can see I am thinking about the future of sigs in regard to them being used, sig request = product. If I could get this to a point were kids could make some $ because the need is so great and sites for banner sales could pay the hosting rent, and bigger sites like this come out winners.

Bottom line I think sigs are cool and could be brought back to a new level of respect.

Anything below 150px isn't going to be pulled off well. Imo.

wow, I did expect the 180's to sell more because of the 9-14 year old anime kids.
But I think highend metals, or bling for the 130's might work for the 20yo's.
I'll look into it... I do realize the world of the 2008 400x100 is almost dead.

EDIT: found an old sig

Even 150 is difficult enough to make a decent composition out of. I think less than that is reserved for abstract things.

Ah now I see why you think this is going to work when you posted that tag. That's more like a banner thing advertising something at the size of a sig. I thought you meant putting something like in my sig in a keyring...

I came in here knowing what you guys are making.
When I made the cherrios sig back in 2008 It was an odd ball design then as well.
I do think everyone's sig will look good at 200DPI. Most likely better then my 100's with 15 pixel border top/bottom
