    No offense, but I wasn't to sure about 2 & 3.

    Extreme Euphoria's sig was so much better than both of those - Unique as hell.

    I could describe 4 things that are wrong with Diablitos sig.

    One major problem with Choices

    and since when did mixing an 'Abstract' render along with a render of a 'character' become so appealing?

    Didn't I say that I 'could' describe 4 things that were wrong with your sig? Yes!

    So here goes:

    1. The blending of the render / image of Riddick is very, very poor. It looks weird.

    2. Pop-out? In my opinion, pop-outs don't look right.

    3. Border needs to be slightly thicker.

    4. I dont know whether or not you used a pixel font for the quote, but some odd letters are uppercase and some are lowercase. Wouldn't it be better to make all of the letters either one of the two?

    And you dont understand what I meant? If you look at Bad Boys sig, hes included an 'abstract' render (probably made in Cinema 4D) in the background of his sig. I've never seen a sig before that has both an image of a character or of any other render. Along with a render of an abstract model. They DO NOT mix well....

    Try to make the pop out render without showing the choppy edges around it like I did in mine and Ill give u 100 credit , dont make the transparent background the same color as the GR background because if U do I will know it, 2nd try to blend the pop out render and see if its easy or not, the thik borders looks ugly if u see ur 1st current sig with a thik black border u will understand what im talking about (looks ugly), the pixel font named pixeldust extended just the name will tell u if its pixel font or not, im not gonna complain about bad boys sig because I respect the choice of the judges, I think the judges in this site are experts of choosing the best sigs.

    Do you think i'm really that stupid to include the Widescreen stylish border on this type of sig?

    I've worked with pop-out renders before, I know how to make the background transparent. All it takes is setting the background contents setting when you make a new document in Photoshop to 'Transparent'. Once you've finished the sig, you save it as '.GIF' format pretty simple.

    As for the border, I was meaning that you make it 'SLIGHTLY' thicker. Maybe 3 pixels. Understand?

    keep your 100 creds, I dont really care about them.

    You really dont know me too well.. Do ya? :P

    Hah. With some of the winners I've seen on this site, I'd say that some need to go and get glasses.

    Honestly.. I'd of never expected out of this whole SotW to see Mr. Cheeky's, and Choice's up there. I never even gave them a second look - They're just uggh.

    Well i need say Diablito sig is great but there is plenty of great sigs.
    Every ppl have their own opinions of the sigs, as we can see.
    Judges have been made the own opinions of the sigs and this time Diablito made the best sig. Thats it. :)
