As i am nearing my 100th post I believe it is time to have a sig. But my photoshop skills are not that great.

i like,

Asian women especially their eyes. =p''', Nine Inch Nails, and dark blue.

Thank you.

Holy Deja Vu Batman!

The cream of the crop graphic designers hang out around here. Best of luck.

Is this good or bad? I've yet to see the movie.

I hate to keep replying, but hey, I'm just keeping the thread alive until the guy gets his sig!

We're team players around here. Right?............

Just make a really ugly one, then someone with some skills will be offended and offer to help. That's what I did... thanks MindFad!

Alright - it's true I'm a total sucker for those little guys. Sig images, not Asian people, that is.

Here goes ... #1, artsy + elegant ...

While Asian eyes are pretty, the true connoisseur adores the cheek bones and the jaw line (think Lucy Liu) ...

#2, natural beauty in duotone ...

or with the not so grungy font used above ...

Thanks for overshadowing me with actual talent. Ya real nice. Jerk.

Honestly tho, those are nice and I like how you worked the "N" in there, with those first ones you hit everything.

I like the first better, too. There's something about those cheek bones ... And that is one mean-ass shade of pink, Turtle. Burnt a hole through my screen in less than 3 seconds. You owe me 900 EUR + a keyboard.

I used the latest top-notch graphics software for that: MS Word

Sadly, that is much better than your 1st attempt at an 'NN sig from what I remember...

d4nth3m4n · Feb 16, 2005, 09:00 PM

stitch?

oh hell yeah.

macintologist · Feb 16, 2005, 09:06 PM

How do you guys make the white inner outline in your sigs?

I made mine manually, by actually drawing straight lines carefully making sure they are one pixel from the edge.

Is there an easier way in PS?

sugar_coated · Feb 16, 2005, 09:10 PM

Making a MacNN signature is very easy if you know how to type on a keyboard.

ugh, what kind of designer do you think I am... toss pennies at my feet and I start dancing... ONE original piece of artwork per person.

[but here is something similar]

Just use the selection tool, make a rectangle, and go Edit: Stroke.

ajprice · Feb 18, 2005, 02:41 PM

A couple using that pic, one in colour, one in blue. With a NIN logo based KINO. Hope you like.

PS. To the mods, these sig threads come up pretty often, (I don't mind them at all, I post sigs in most of them), can we have a sticky sig creation/donation thread please? Just a thought.

Thirded.

It would suck if my quality sigs were created in vain and never used !

Hmm ... pretty eyes. But really shabby lighting - is that from a cosmetics ad? The light makes her face look as flat as a pancake - not many shadows to play with. But we'll give it a shot ...

Hmm ... a bit bland for my taste but if you like her eyes that much ... be my guest.

This one's still my favorite ...
