    I had this old sig and it was really simple with smudge background and a small sprite render..

    I decided to use this old technique that i learned before on gimp and i guess it worked pretty good on this -- i messed up the bottom outline a bit though and i will be back with ver.2 tomorrow...

    CnC plz

    (edit)
    Ok so here is my new version.. on this one i added a darker shadow so it looks like they are floating on top of each other and i moved them farther from the edge so it is not so obvious where the canvas ends

    I don't like how many are touching the bottom, making the bottom really clear, but the rest totally random. Make the boxes more random, like TKB said.

    Yeah i noticed --- the vertical rectangle on the bottom right side and a few squares on the bot were accidents and i guess i was just too sleepy to fix 'em last night.....


    I will randomize more and add drop shadows --- but lol the background color on this forum is black .... the drop shadow wouldn't show -- lol would it be ok if i made a white dropshadow ? or would that look wired.

    White shadow by definition, is not a shadow. Lol.

    I would leave the drop shadow off though.

    I like the idea, but it is too random.
    Is it a ragnarok sprite?

    You could try putting the sprite with the "box" in the middle and making smaller boxes around it so that the focal really is there.
