The voting!

[Essex]

So... finnaly, the voting! Yay <3
Many people have sent their sigs to me and I'm proud to hold this contest after seeing how great they all are ^_^

To the voting. Since there were so many entries, I had to make three threads.
You're only alowed to vote for 1 sig. Not in each thread, but 1 sig!
Every thread will have the option of voting 'blank' so you can see how the score is. Remember, admins can see who voted for what and those who cheat will be punished.
If you recognize a style, keep it to yourself!

Edit again: I forgot to mention: The four winners go to the finals ^_^

[Marie2007]

[~World of Elegance~]

The 5th one got my vote,I love it.

[-Shizu-]

I like the 4th one ^^

[Joseph Larker]

The 5th one is beautifully done! A good demonstration of skills without being overdone. I like the first one a lot too... I hope it gets a runner up! =P

[teed]

the 4th & the 5th r cool! but i chose the 4th one! ^_^

[Saiyanbabe1818]

i liked the second to last one!

[Tsuna Kadiri]

I like #2. Even though it's sort of scary. XD

[Dark itachi]

Jesus people your votes are crooked...aka. ghey.
It's between #'s 5 and 7---the rest...how about a no comment?
#5=Monotone and boring.
#7=BG's not the best but its better than the rest, stock fits well.

I hate forums like this. Whats the point of having a gfx section if you know nothing on the topic =/

[Missy]

If you have nothing positive to say please don't post, thank you ^_^


Anyway I voted for #6.. The color balance and clarity of the sig is almost perfect. Caught my eye in an instant.

Good to see how my japanese language assistance was used. No worries, I won't say who did which.

Fabulous sigs, all!

[Ninja Hatake Kakashi]

look into my eyes is the best! good job doi!!!!

[Vagary]

The 8th one definitely!

[Taikyo]

T_T it was soo hard...soo..soo hard...T_T and I choose the 2nd one. It looks like they use Flash, yet it isn't, which is good..yet that one scared me @_@;; But still like it.

[MistressPookyChan]

Since I am giving my critiques in all the threads, might as well in this one too! I won't give specifics of each sig though because (unlike others....) I don't want to give my vote away.

I could tell just by a quick glance that the more experienced sig-makers are in here. Why? There is good color combination, can all be customized for any user, great use of font, and good over-all themes. Although I am usually against animation, the animation that was used served a purpose and helped with the overall effect of the signature. I am also usually anti-Japanese usage because people tend to get it wrong. In this case, all the Japanese fits the signatures' themes; the Japanese has a purpose instead of just being there to show off Japanese skills.

For anyone that wants to get into signature or wallpaper making, take a look at these. Study them, ask the artist about their techniques (once you figure out who the artist is!) and use these as an example of good CGing.

heheh, i actually recognised some of the styles in those sigs. I still havent decided yet, theyre all great.

[Chibi Misao]

Wow those siggs are really amazing....O_O I had a tough time choosing only one sig.But in the end, i think the 5th sigg deserves to be number one.

[Missy]

All of the sigs are really good ^^

'tis a shame some people dont really know that theres 2 other threads to look at as well. =\.. hehe even though it was said theres three threads, a lot of people seem to be missing it >< I hope no one does because everyones sigs who participated deserves to be recognised ^__^

[Ashminigun]

*joins in the voting frenzy...

Whoa! This voting thread choices are the cream of the cream and the killer among the 3 voting thread combine! Hard to choose.... it's between 2, 4, 5, 6 & 8...

#2 - love the dramatic effect, just too scary for some
#4 - nice design, an eye-catcher
#5 - just love the emitting radiance and the kanji scan effects.
#6 - interesting BG work and it blends with the stock
#8 - those eyes are the killer, inviting indeed...

phew! hard to choose...

[Sake]

I have to say #6, it looks the cleanest to me out of them.

[stigmatize]

I chose the 5th one as well... I love the colours and the simplicity of it. Plus, nice animation. I was torn between the 8th and the 5th actually. I can feel the 8th sig, the cold eyes. Very nicely done. But in the end, the 5th one. yeah.

The 6th one is very nice too. the stock blended very well with the bg. ^__^

[DarkPrinceBman]

Many sigs to chose from....30 wow.....well im still looking through the threads but my choice is becoming clear...

[/Aifa|]

I decided to look through them all to see which one appealed to me the most, and i have to say ....ive seen better sigs around AF than the ones in this whole contest >_> ....but #5 was the best one for me so i voted for that. But the chinese/kanji/font thingy seemed to spoil it for me. Couldve used more anti-aliasing on the font, and the font seems a bit too big anyway. I thought maybe more sleek looking japanese writing would suit it better. But of course, thats just about the looks, i dont know what the characters mean so i cant judge it on that! ^^;;

[Myrra]

Wow! There were a lot of sigs to go through and it was a tough decision.

So many nice sigs. ^_^ When I know who made what there is one I'd like to have.
