yeah. I've been going back and forth as far as doing sigs. I feel like I'm finally getting the hang of it to be honest. I'm all self-taught with a few tips from my bro TANN3R. <3

1. Phil Bozeman from Whitechapel.


This was my first one. I sharpened it too much and it looks a little too grainy. Added the Whitechapel gear stars in different locations of the signatures.

2. Majin Buu


This is my second one. I was finally able to get the hang of detail in this one. My sharpening was a bit better. My only issue was my border didn't seem to have the randomness that I wanted. Nonetheless a decent 2nd signature.

3. Mike Hranica from The Devil Wears Prada


Being my 3rd one, I was feeling a little more confident. With the help of TANN3R I was able to figure out my main issues I was having in my last few I tried. I was able to create depth and a decent border that had more randomness.

First signature I made for anyone besides just to practice. This I felt turned out well and followed suit to my 3rd one. I am keeping better consistency and a good clean border.

5. Ziggs from League of Legends


By now I've gotten a routine down and knew what my steps have been. This border is pretty clean cut and and a little different style than the last few. However I did like it. It's my current one I'm using. It may not be perfect, but I like rocking what I'm proud of!

6. SS2 Gohan


This one is my most recent. I just finished this about 20 minutes ago. I really like this one. I feel like I'm getting closer and closer to seeking my goal as being a recognized signature creator.


All in all I've been going to school for IT-Support and Repair. I've been doing this on my spare time and I'm loving it. I'm considering actually doing this as my future. I'm not sure yet, but let me know what you guys like and don't like. Tips are always welcomed!

...Well...

Didn't realize I had to elaborate on what my "future" was. No it's not making D2jsp forum signatures.

Unless you specify what this is then we are going to immediately assume you're going to spend the rest of your life making signatures.

Borderless signatures are terrible. Purposely making empty space makes no sense to me.

Well maybe he meant graphic design as his future?

Yes, making sigs is fun ^^ If you're thinking of being a serious signature maker or whatever, you might want to consider rectangular sigs. While pop-outs can look nice, to make progress, you should try and make some classical sigs. I myself don't really care for pop-outs :/ I always hated making them, so I just stopped after a couple of tries ^_^ Read some tuts, good luck! :)

I would not recommend that.. I don't think its a good idea to make your sig making a routine ^_^ Try to make something different every time.
