=o!
Too messy.
Get rid of of the texts. Erase a bit of most of the C4D (especially the lower left) and even though the colors are vibrant, they arent really working... add a Gradient Map at the top? it may help =D

momoshiro: tnx ^^ But I think the attitude was supplied by Lulu being in chains rather than me fiddling with that particular pic of him X_x
KuroTan: Yeah~ It got too messy in the end =_=' I got carried away playing with filters and c4ds to actually consider the overall impact...
Unli.: I just ended up putting too many things in, including the text X_x''' and it also has a number of gradient maps in it already... I was too excited to work on the sig to actually extract Lulu and his chains... that probably added to it looking slapdash =_='''
I'll try to rework that sig one of these days once I do a proper extract of the original pic... to at least, redeem myself from the messy work x3
=======
UPDATE:
I was watching videos sent by a friend which led me to doing an extract of Ikuto which in turn led me to make a sig out of it... I just had to frame that smexy-smug look. lawd x3
Ikuto
Shugo Chara
EDIT:
Finally finished the sig request of "Red". He provided the pic for this one. ^^
@"Red": Sorry man if it took me ages ^^''' Well, it's up to you if you still wanna wear it after all this time... er, should you still be interested in the sig [w/c I hope you still are xD], just tell me if you want something edited. Again, sorry it took me so long ^^'''

Thank you Mikadzuki
I love the sig lots. You've done a great job with my sig and the other ones. I hope to see some more from you soon!!

Not bad. Text could be improved though. Play with the fonts?^^
"Red": Tnx. I'm glad you liked it *breathes sigh of relief* ^^
KuroTan: Yeah~ I know... T_T I was using my EeePc for these sigs and all the resources (brushes, fonts, etc.) are on the home pc and the laptop w/c were both engaged at the time ^^' Tnx for pointing that out though ^^
nice sigs.. you've improved young jedi.. heheh^^
can you make me one too.. I'd like the egg character of Amu...
the blue one--its the art junkie right? XDD

Nice job on that one from "Red" i really like it how you made it.
The one for red is pretty, but it could still use some work ^^
The font looks like it doesn't belong. The shadow kinda destroys the overall "whole" look. And the color contrast doesn't help either.
The border seems a little too thick. You don't want the border to take away from the stock.
I really like the image and the size is about right =3
Everything else looks fine, good job!
Siggeh made by me. Taking requests ATM! =3
UPDATE:
A gift sig for meh good friend
It's nothing fancy, just a few filters, gradients and a bit of photomanip...LOL
Well, hope he likes it ^^
momoshiro: well, i do my best x33 tnx! shugo chara... hmmm... let me get back to you on that one. ^^
~*Suzuka*~: thank you x3
Knuffle Bunny: thanks for your comments. I appreciate it ^^ Yep, I need to work on the fonts... and a few others it seems. x3
========
EDIT:
jose: Glad you like it... and wore it at that! Tnx! x3
Here's a matching avi x33

For moi?
You are going to let these people into our evilness?
Are you cheating on me?
blah I am talking to you on IM right now =))
ANyway I love the new set I love the color and the uber thin boarder you know I like =P
The glow that comes the images makes is it better
[copied and paste to sig]
I ♥ it
Hmm ... this so looks like a rip with a filter over it O_o;;
Here's the actual wallaper: http://www.animepaper.net/gallery/wa...mist/item8457/
Can you prove me you actually made this?
Although I'm not sure, she may have used this one, HERE. Maybe~?
Anyways, looks kinda bland >.>;;
Sig request!
Bellato siggy please... U know the specifics, I trust ur taste.
XD
The pic on which the Ed/FMA sig/avi set was neither based on animepaper dot net nor planetrenders dot net. It was actually from flickr.com. The picture is 600x450px and whose quality is bordering on low. And being sourced from said site and with the picture itself bearing no clearly discernable credits, I considered it as stock photo.
As is, may I respectfully stress that I did not claim ownership of the original picture on which the sig/avi were based on. My only claim are on the simple modifications to increase the quality of the original, the placement and the effects of the username therein, and other measures as to create a set--which is, by observation, a general, though not the only, practice in creating tags/sigs/avies.
Yes, Flash. I can prove my claim that I did make the set and will send you via PM the .psd files, along with the picture on which they were based.
If I may also add, this issue disheartens me because the sig was for a good friend. And I'm afraid this issue undermined my sincerity in giving him the set. Especially so with the allusions of me ripping, which is not and never was my practice. I do not take credit for things that I didn't make/accomplish. Though the case, I commend you, Flash for giving me a chance to prove myself.
I hope this matter would be cleared at the soonest possible time. Still, thanks guys, for your interest in my humble works.
Ooooh the sset for Jose is really shiny +_+ I love blue shininess! <333
The sig a little big, but I LOVE it.
Keep up the good work! [It should be 10000... stars, but sadly, I can only give you 5 T^T]

Hmm ... about the sig in question. I and mikadzuki solved the issue privately and determined the sig is not a direct rip-off of the wallpaper, therefore no action will be taken against the artist, nor against the sig (yes, rip-offs get punished too ).
I apologize for creating such a ruckus, but it was really necessary. Plagiarism is the worst offense against an artist and I'm intended to make sure there won't be any in my forums.
Happy posting everyone. ^_^
@FlashD & Knuffle Bunny: Thanks. ^^
===
After a long while... an update. ^^
The last half of the sig was made by me. The first half of the layers are by KuroTan. Thanks Kuro for lending me a psd to play with. xD I left your layers as they are though. ^^
No text yet. Can't think of a nice one... any suggestions? xD
I just want to play with a bit of animation to while away more time ^^'
Sorry if the text on this one is a bit uninspired, both in font and in content... ^^'
comments/suggestions/constructive crits are very much welcome! ^^
Thanks much for dropping by! c('',)o

Unli: Yeah, I did loose a lot of the vivid colors KuroTan had initially placed in. I'll tone down the blur filter and regain the vivid colors back.
Yeah, I'm usually at a lost in choosing the right fonts and colors 'coz I usually finish the bg/image first then think of the text later. ^^' I don't plan it all the way through and large percentage are just left to chance ^^'
Anywho~
I was making a banner for my fave internet radio website and thought I'd make a sig version... sorta xD
A gift siggy for a good friend ^^
I was going for a greek goddess sort of feel xD
Still, there's my usual fickleness in text ^^'
I can't decide which looks better. So I'd be happy to hear comments on the sig and esp so with the text. ^^
@naotavespaboy: you can pick which one you like... or if you want anything changed please don't hesitate to tell me ^^

Yay, catching up on my non-comments.
Ahw, I haven't seen a Belldandy sig in a long time. Its so graceful and elegant-like. I like the background and the clothy Belldandy effect that you used. The color scheme seems a bit dull to me, but its fine. I like this sig because its simple and it gives off a very concrete vibe. I would choose the version in the middle but all three are really nice.
Waiting for updates <3
Jagan Eye: Jagan! <3 It's been quite a while. Thanks for dropping by! ^^ Anyway... yeah, I have this insistent tendency to go monochromatic with my color choices. So I'm looking for ways to remedy that and hopefully bring more life to my works xD
And now for an update. ^^
First sig in CS2! I just installed it a few hours ago. xDD
Something non-anime this time. Kwon Boa based on this pic of her [link]. xD
Still trying to find ways to effectively use color and C4Ds. So if you note something or anything off or terrible with the sig, please tell me. That would really help me a lot. Oh, and if it's not much bother, please be as specific as you can. That'd be a great help too ^^

The summer is win sig looks good. But if you played with the fonts some more like KuroTan said, maybe it would look better. The animation bit is a tad too fast. Slow it down a little.
I love this signature that you did for Naotavespaboy ^_^ It came out really awesome and Belldandy looks so graceful, everything works so well.
Maybe the font could be slightly better but that could just be me.
I'm not so sure on the set you did in CS2 though, not my kind of signature style and the background isn't so great ...
it takes focus off the picture of her in my opinion (it's mainly the blue, red and green light to the fragments that doesn't look right).
Keep up the awesome work though overall and you've really improved. ^^

| Back Old Skool - Signature by myself truly. ||Still Learning Photoshop CS2||
karuto: Thanks so much for your comments! <3 And yes, I admit my font choices/styles needs work too ^^; And I'll slow down the timing of the text to make it a bit more graceful ^^
PhoenixChan*~: Thanks! <33 Yes, the font is a bit bleh. >_> But that's the one available on the pc that seemed to fit the sort of Greek theme I was going for. I really need to download new fonts ^^;
In the BoA sig, the bg was made from scratch LOL I was going for a look/feel like she was exploding/shattering into vibrant colors xD But I like and enjoy how the colors on the seemingly shattered fragments came out and the lighting effects I learned just recently LOL Still, thanks for your honest comment. I really appreciate it ^^
