    I was messing with filters and whatnot and i found this cool effect that works well with renders.

    Ill be using this render made by Tidus.
    [​IMG]
    First Duplicate the layer and add a motion blur.

    Angle 0
    Distance about 30-35
    You should have something like this.

    Then set the blending type to linear light
    [​IMG]

    Finaly go to Image->Adjustments->Gradient Map
    Then pick the black and white gradient.

    It should end up to look like this.

    If its to dark adjust the brightness.
    Image->Adjustments->Brightness/Contrast


    And there you have it a simple effect that looks good on sigs.
    Heres an example of one i made

    You can use the dodge tool to lighten up the dark areas.
