Hello Everyone...
I've realized many of the people in this forum (both requesting sigs and offering them) have different ideas regarding the names of the different types of shapes for sigs out there.
This guide is meant to act as a standard for people to refer to when asking for a signature.
I hope it helps!

Signature style refers to 2 main aspects of the sig:
1. The shape- the outline of the sig, and not the content of it!
2. The genre- the type of content in it, the type of effects used, type of brushes/stock photos used etc.
[/B]




First of all let's review the different shapes of sigs out there: (A guide for the genres will be made later)





I hope this guide helped!
As a side note, all the sigs shown here are premades of mine and are
FOR SALE!

Ha, thanks.

Finally a way to show our customers what exactly the types are.
We as Gfx artists are ofc well informed about it, but for the others its something totally new.

Nice way and good explanation!

ThX.


Just a tip:
Since iam using a dark jsp theme, i cant see the black writing, for me no problem cuz i know those things anyway, but for others maybe a pain in the ass ;)

~regards.

Hmm, never thought about the Bite and Ripped in middle sig shapes before :O. Cool.

It's a nice guide, but you shouldn't have written they're all for sale. It's more like a service in camouflage.

well i beg to differ. i think what you're talking about is a rectangle sig. whether it has a 1px black line around it (also called a border) is irrelevant.
but that's just my 2cents.

just thought it'd be nice to create some sort of standard to go with.
