@ OP: Please do yourself a favor and completely ignore what Shady2oo7 is saying. He clearly has no idea what he is doing, and your sig in its current state is still much better than what he has made.

As for improvements, the text is the biggest issue. It is just tossed on, and seems like not much thought was put into it.

The next thing would have to be render choice for this type of sig. Doesn't have any flow, or anything really interesting. Does not go with the effects.

Text is pretty bad as others have pointed out. For one the color makes it seem out of place but the typeface and size of the text is what hurts it the most. Is that a random half of  a Ying-Yang in there? Biggest critique would be to not be so hard up on the Orange/Purple Gradient. Gradients are nice but only when they're treated with respect of what's already there. They can really enhance your color scheme but when it's apparent that they're just used as a quick fix it's 90% of the time not a good thing. It can work for sure but it doesn't here.

I'd work on trying to put some depth into it as well. Which is another thing that most over saturated gradients do they kill any feeling of depth because there's no range of color imo. When you're starting out I would just stick with a certain effect be it the bubble shapes or the lines. Don't try to do too much at first sigs to me are a lot like good food and the best food is simple and amazing by just letting the key ingredients shine. When you start putting massive effects in a sig it can become clouded and crowded quick so I'd suggest simply trying to use as little as possible and make the little things good before throwing everything at it. Need some commas in there somewhere I know but my cat is laying on my hands and it's a struggle to even type so fuck commas.


Absolutely stunning. Well put Heretic!

I much agree with him. (im going to school for graphic design so im only getting better myself.)

Take into account that its very subjective. Some people like clean, some like messy - It's all about what the client wants.

I actually like the type treatment though, it's really not that bad.

I do agree it could use a bit more depth though. and if it were for me, it would be much more simple. however, GOOD 1 mate.

Mmm, I think you put the lightsource in the wrong place.
