    Well first off: Long time scince i left here :P

    Over a year now! but i'm glad i'm back! Got back into the graphic designs and earning some extra pocket money with freelancing.

    During this past year, i haven't done anything about my sig/tag (whatever you call 'em nowadays) skills so here is my latest.

    I hope it's up-to-date with the latest fashion :P, because i'm used to making my sigs with grunge brushes only and some lighting effects.

    But i took a look at these new sigs that came popping up and tried to make something similar :)
    Well this is it :)

    Is it okay? :P

    I quite like it as a tag, although text isn't too good, understandably quite an old style :P As for being up to date with current trends I would say its a bit empty to be called that, but nice colours and lighting.
    Imo grab some cheap/free tuts and try out some smudge tags and newer styles. :) You're obviously pretty good at sig making so I doubt it'll take you too long.

    thanks m8 :)

    I also figured it was a bit empty, and i really really suck at text :P

    I'll look at some other tags and see what they do.

    Heh, I've always struggled with text. Personally one of the best tips I've picked up is using clipping masks over text layers to help them blend, and simple fonts like Arial or MS Sans.

    It's quite strange that such simple fonts actually look nice on graphics.

    Oh well, it's late here. Better go to bed

    Thanks for the help m8 ;)

    appreciate it :)
