    Default My first sig

    Ok, so I actually made a super simple no-effect sig before just cut and paste a few pics, but this will be my first creation using effects I guess you could say.

    Now I am pretty much a complete newby to digital art. I mean I know basics about photography and basic photo editing but thats it. I had no clue what to do so I watched a few tutorials, including blueangel and elepsis's here to get the basics. I even had to google the terms like c4d, and I still don't know what a few of the instructions actually meant. I had only learned what layers are recently trying to do HDR photo editing by watching a few tutorials on that.

    I know I already put it as my sig - I was happy with it personally and that was good enough for me. But the more I think about it, if there are ways to make it better I am all ears. I'm using Gimp 2.6.12 on Ubuntu just FYI, and I know that version I think is out of date I just havent upgraded yet to 2.8 or whatever it is.

    Welcome to the club!

    Not bad for a first try. Love to see you try more. The best advice I can give right now is to just keep messing with GIMP. Do a lot of trial and error on your own. I'd give you time to make a few more pieces before I'd really start giving you any feedback. Give you a chance to explore a bit. Keep it up :3

    Hey thanks Blue, I'll mess around with it more for sure, maybe try a few others from scratch, but it might be a while!

    I've always liked art, and used to draw a lot in HS & College but I never was very good and its been years. Digital-wise I used to have a 3d program like 3DS Max but it was different, and much more limited, I used to design things in but thats about it. I'll keep looking for more tutorials, I think my main issue is I simply don't know what all Gimp can do and how to properly execute it.

    That's a pretty good first try. Better than when I first started. Keep at it and you'll get even better. ;3

    Yay ~ Nice for a first try <33
    mine was very horrible

    Well, you can start off by making smaller tags because you don't need to fill up an empty space.
    Try also going crazy with brushes and textures you will learn a lot by using them ~
