@JaidynM
Unfortunately I myself didnt like the earlier sig made for ya. So, did some small tweaks and included the ones you wanted. Will soon make one for the VF.

Recreated VF logo and included in the same sig. Hope ya like this too

Would someone be as so kind as to "Avatarise" this for me.The picture itself is fine just looking for a border and maybe a bit of polishing
Thanks Danny

Hi Randy, I'll see what I can do with them

In the meantime, here's a sig on a melancholic theme...sorrow.

At long last Jaidyn...

Thought it would take a few days, but it took a few hours as I got carried away :-D

Hats off to the sig makers. Quite an assortment of fantastic sigs!

Thanks, Gary. It looks great! Though could you please make a similar one but with the original purple bloke? :sarc: And it would be great if you could make in the new sig a shade lighter, if not white. I'd rep you but the forums tell me I have to 'spread it around'

The other day I made myself a sig for VF, but as you can see the edges on the rounded bits are a bit jagged

I'm using Photoshop Extended CS5 and anti-aliasing was on, but I can't figure out why the round bits are like that, any ideas?

 

[Athene]

That's a beautiful sig, Tom, those glowing letters really rock :-D I have the same jagged-edge problem as you do...I thought it was a Photoshop Elements issue, but obviously not...So what exactly is the secret behind those smooth edges? ;-D

Try making your image at 1300x300 then resize it to 650x150 and save. Or start with double the size of the end product.

Does the resolution have to be changed, too? The default resolution seems to be 72 pixels/inch - is that enough?

Not sure about that, you can try about 150 and see how it goes, as a science experiment. Just use resize and not the scaling, which is dragging the image handles or nodes.

Thanks, Gary *scribbles notes*

Tom, Gary and Athene,

In your set up for making the border ...do you not have these options?
View attachment 174247


#1 is the shaping of the corner ...from a round corner,scalloped or chamfered corner
#2 is where you can shape any corner by increasing or decreasing the x and y axis.

Not sure you have these options with CS5 but I do in Corel Draw GS 5X

Tom, I dont have any formal training in graphics .... still I am telling what I do , and those rough corners dont appear .

You are making a shape and work in it ..... after making the shape, ctrl+click on the shape to select the pixels of the shape, create a new layer, fill the new layer with paint bucket tool . Now hide the original shape , and work on the new layer which is an identical copy of the shape layer but doesn't have a shape path to make it look jagged .

If you find this method is childish, please dont laugh at me ... I am saying that I have no formal training .... so my methods are not formal. But it works .
