Custom Made Sig and Avatar [6]

[Arc]

Thanks a lot for your kind words, Steve I am sure that we all enjoy design making , without thinking that the job is hard or not . It's like an addiction ... it's like an affection . Specially when a user of our sig design is satisfied with our works, it feels too good

@Tom, you are not a member of the GFX team, it is true . At the same time it is also true that you are on the way . Keep up your good work, mate .

Edit: Sorry it's fairly low-res, I couldn't do it any higher res because that's the size of the source images I used

 

[Thor1]

No worries, I'm glad you like it I'm really happy with how that one came out actually. I'm not as happy with this one, but see what you think:

I'm not going to do the World text unless you're happy with how it is - I'm not very pleased with it, but you might be If you don't like it, then that's fine (I completely understand), I'll do the Transformers one now. The reason I couldn't do the two words together is because the filters would cause the images to merge and it would look a right mess!

Excellent work, Tom
I have tried to enhance the resolution .... as far as the pixels allows .

I just opened the image in Corel Draw , saved it as .png, again converted it to .jpg, as the .png is of 4.89 MB which is very big file to upload .

You have Corel Draw and Photoshop!? That must have set you back a bit!

I'm surprised it blew up that well to be honest, thank you for that

 

[Thor1]

hmm not quite fully satisfied with it :/ I think its the font on it hmm

 

[Arc]

I have GIMP, too ! I use all the three programs, but I want to be a corel draw expert, Like Nick , and like this man http://mormegil.wincustomize.com/index.aspx .

Corel Draw is able to produce extraordinary output, if it is used properly .

Wow it's hard enough to know how to use one of them, not all three!

I always thought Photoshop was the top of the range! Maybe not.

Have you ever tried Cinema4D?

MAXON: Home

It's the most complicated software ever, it's very powerful though but even the tutorials can't help me

 

[Thor1]

That is hot! If you could add below mirrored letters: Work, Play, Make Friends!

 

[Arc]

Wow it's hard enough to know how to use one of them, not all three!

Actually I dont have a knowledge of either one Just try to use at my best .

Have you ever tried Cinema4D?

MAXON: Home

Tried two times using demo versions ... but I dont have the program in full . Following online tutorials, I was able to make spherical shapes, gears and 3d texts

I'm doing a little of my malware removal degree then I'll do this for you

I should have it all done in half an hour or so

Maybe I must have thrown myself in the deep end a bit then, I tried doing this

And as you can probably guess, I failed. I got the 3D text fine, but the shatter and explosion didn't go as planned

Glad you like it buddy If you ever want some more, or those changing in the future, just drop a post in this thread

Tom

Edit: Maybe I shouldn't have posted it in this thread actually, strictly speaking it's not a sig or an avatar. If you want a sig/avatar in the future, post here, if not then start a new thread and send me a link

Buddy pal..I like the transformers text/style very much. Kudos.

Small suggestion, IMHO, the tagline shouldn't be in the same style. Better, put it in plain text. As well as I can see, the tagline overlaps the mirrored main text, which is not appealing. And dont use a mirror effect for the tagline. LOL, lots of suggestions. Hope ya dont mind.

2 cents.

Keep up the good work.

Thanks for the kind words

There's a great guide here if you want it:

Transformers Effect | Text Effects | PSHERO

Thanks for the tips. Yeah I agree with most of those and I'm more than happy to change anything that Thor doesn't like, so what do you think Thor?

Hi Guys

Thought I would ask here as it seems as good a place as any. Is there an online site that would convert a coloured picture into greyscale. I am using a wallpaper that I think Arc made as my logon screen but would like to add it to the white explorer background but in a sort of pencil sketch fashion rather than colour if that makes sense.
