GIMP learning journal for TrackKing
« on: August 22, 2010, 04:39:26 AM »
Okay, so I would like to start my own thread on learning about gimp. So, here's my first sig, made with Xan in mind.



Xan, its your choice whether you want it or not.

Comments pls.
Cya on the tracks, Cheers,

It's nice. You've added some depth to it around the outside, but the background is a bit too plain.
The border is nice but it doesnt follow the colour scheme of the rest of the sig.
I really like the text and that works REALLY well with the rest of the sig :)

1st sig:  Looks really nice but the inside is a bit plain, the white part atleast and the bfm_xan, the color of it doesn't exactly go with the rest of teh sig (all though it's a pretty cool font :P )

2nd sig: the part that says "bfm_TrackKing" again, looks really cool and those 'spikes' around it (?) im assuming you used alpha-to-logo > frosty  :)   All together it looks nice ^^

Made by me ^^

Made by _Arya :D Thank you! :D

I don't like your newest sig tbh. The colour beams (or whatever they are...) look good, but only the yellow ones.I dont like the way the diagonal red ones are. And I think it would have looked better to make no spikes on your name. That doesn't fit in at all.

lol, thx

Its really just an animated flame script. If you want, you could PM Shivrz and she would tell you how to get it. If she can't, though, then it would be MrT  ;D

Note: it says, "That's right, I'm walking through the flames. It just mean I'm totally ownage."  :LOL:

w00t w00t first animated sig  ;D

That is better than any of the sigs I've made. It's cool how you added the master chief to the flames. Only prob I can see that the text is a lil hard to read. Apart from that, it's ownage (I've been teaching you too much).
