Hey guys! I know I'm new, but I wanted to offer my services for anyone who would like a signature, with or without a matching avatar. I have been making signatures for many sites for many years now and I really enjoy doing it.

Guidelines :
  • I do not work with anime or other cartoons.
  • I prefer to work with models/actors/etc, simply for the ease of finding multiple shots to work with. It's difficult for me to find my muse when I have exactly one pose to work with.
  • That being said, it doesn't have to be an overly used celebrity. If you can find a model's (or whoever's) site/gallery with several usable shots, feel free to point me to it.
  • I don't like to work with really "busy" concepts. I prefer simple, focused pieces such as I have in my examples. If you're intent on a super busy looking signature with a lot going on in it, I can give it a shot but no guarantees it'll look nice.
  • Don't be surprised if you give me a request and I hand you back several different signatures. Sometimes a character inspires me and I'll make one that matches the request and others that I felt compelled to make. Feel free not to use the extras, or any of them at all. I won't be offended, promise!

Examples :
Most of these are my own signatures, one is a sample sig I made up for no one in particular, and the knight is one I made for a player on another site.

(The Tameka James sig was a sample I made trying out a filter technique, it has never been used by a player anywhere, and if you want to adopt it, feel free. I can change the name and/or picture and/or text if you just like the background.)
Image
(Not my favorite ever, but added because of the sheer amount of time it took. You probably can't tell (because that's the point) but a lot of photomanipulation went into the sword in this one. The blade and hilt were from different swords, and the gem was added from elsewhere. *shameless self promotion*)

I should probably get a form up, but you can just tell me:
  • Who you want for your playby.
  • Want a matching avatar too?
  • Any color or color schemes that you like.
  • Any theme you want.
  • Any text you'd like on it.
  • If you have a particular font that you want used. And if you want a spiffy font, feel free to pick one from Dafont.com and link the page to me. I get all my fonts there, I have a lot of them, and I can download any that I don't have already.
  • Anything else you want to mention.

I'm not particularly busy right at the moment so I can probably get started right away!

seychelle gabriel is the portrayer but as Yue from the avatar. I'd like any scgeme( Sorty didn't come up with that!) and I'd like the text to be her name, "Laurue White" and her quote which is," Someone who cares judges you by your attitude not your looks."

Any background preferences or overall theme preferences? I'm thinking something water related, with blue tones, but if you prefer something let me know.

This is what I have so far, I'm looking for a better quality shot for the eye overlay, but there aren't many pics of her in character and her real eye color is brown so it doesn't fit. :((


Image

I have this one without the overlay, but it seems blank to me. I'll probably work on it some more, but if you want to use one of these until then, feel free.

Great! Glad you like it! And actually, I would prefer if you would save it to your own image site, such as Photobucket or something similar. If I delete it or move it to different part of my Photobucket, it will break the link and you will lose the image in your signature. I've had that happen to players before and it's inconvenient for them. If you don't have an account on an image hosting site I can give you the link to it where I have it hosted, but I can't promise it will remain there permanently.
