    I just wanted to encourage you all to make a change in your GFX designs. I recommend you all use defaults only. Think of it this way. You didnt make the wallpaper/render. You didnt make the font. You didnt make the brushes. The least you could do is make your own BG of not someone else's work.

    Most of us dont make renders,fonts,or brushes. So I say not only to become a more respected and better designer use defaults or try it. Trust me its not easy either and it will imporve you GFX greatly. So I challege you all to try defaults. I am getting sick of noobs just downloading brushes someone else made because they cant do their own work.

    Renders and fonts are acceptable since it is alot harder to do. I feel we can all start using defaults or make our own brushes. Espically people with more than 6 monthes of experience. That is sad if you cant make your own BG without someone else work. Any of you that think defaults are impossible....

    I will show you sigs that will own any sig you give me. Post it here and I will just post a sig back that will prove defaults can own any sig.

    I agree. But then you get people who think they are god once they can make a really basic sig with defaults <.<

    Jash and I make our own brushes and I use some of 4nub1s' own renders for my brushes so I'm being original. :)

    I don't really mind people using brushes, but I do want people to try out defaults or make their own brushes. ;)

    Sorry it wasnt good enough for you. It was never made to be advance. It was not made to be hard. I wanted it easy and effective. It seemed like alot of people were pleased with it. Do you see me making sigs like that everyday?

    A tut is a tut. I dont see you making them. Sorry I tryed to help others out and it wasnt good enough for you. Your the ignorant people that cant respect anything.

    Agree. I can do the same thing.

    Listen to that man :|

    EDIT:

    And Graphic designing is about compiling different types of media into a single image consulting of those types of media in a way that is pleasing to the eye. You can take someone elses brushs and make a crappy sig, or you can take someone elses brushs and make a great sig. Using defaults is nothing but a challenge and default designing is usually recommended towards ACTUALY PROFESSIONAL DESIGNERS that get payed for their work because taking someone elses designs (brushs) is almost considered illegal in the professional world.

    I know this because I myself have been graphic desgining for 4 years and I plan to continue doing that for the rest of my life.
