Welcome to Rockman's Banners and Stuff!!!

I've recently discovered more advanced features in Photoshop and now making banners and signatures have become a hobby of mine. It has also given me great practice for my future career, so bonus! ^_^

Some most recent siggies that I've done, but too lazy to link to are available at the link below:
http://s71.photobucket.com/albums/i126/viewtifuldee/Siggies%20and%20Banners/


Here are some samples of what I've done:


The phrase was gonna be "Respect my authoritay!" but that's a bit cliche, don't you think.



Would've had more to this, but I was lacking inspiration because I've never played a Pokemon Ranger game in my life!



Infernape has become one of my favorite Pokemon and so I used him to test my ability at making fire in Photoshop. NOTE: InfernapeFan392 does not exist.



This is the one I use for myself. Luxray is my favorite, and the lightning is epic. Don't you think so?



I did this for another member. Mew and Lugia are hugging...



Just did this one after I posted the thread. It's Porygon inside of a virtual reality room.


I think I'm getting better. Do you?


Features Zekrom from Pokemon Black and White. The Pokemon is surrounded by both darkness and light.

So those are some samples of what I can do. If you would like a signature made, then just post a reply describing how you want it to look and what Pokemon, phrases, username etc., should appear.

I'm also looking for ideas of what to do, so even if you don't plan on using one of my sigs, I would appreciate it if you just gave me an idea of what I could do. Just to keep me busy. Thanks!

What version of Photoshop are you using?
I won't be too harsh (I can never be harsh when commenting so I'll leave that to other members) As most of the other graphics members here would say it looks like a plain render and text slapped on to a background. I suggest you take tutorials - They really help. Try make the text and render fit the background as well.

Keep practicing and you'll definitely get better

Your latest one is definately your best. You need to work on your tags. More tutorials would probably help, and try finding different brushes and C4Ds. These can make your picture look so much more. Otherwse, just practise!

Yup, you bumped it. I'm not sure if the rule applies to shops though. Anyways:

@dragon0fangz: Could you explain what you want in more details. I'm not sure if you're asking for a banner or avy, or both, so just add some more details and I'll be happy to get started.

@Diablerie: Sure, I can make one for you. Just give me the details and I'll get on it.

P.S. Sorry it took a while to reply, I wasn't really expecting anyway to make a request. Thanks though. :)

Oh sorry, i wanted a sig, my current avatar is fine.

For the sig, you can feel free to do whatever you want, but try to make it look ominous and threatening with a dark blue motif. Oh yeah, the text can be "dragon0fangz" with "the menace" underneath. Once again, sorry for bumping, i didnt even notice the date.

@dragon0fangz: Here you are. It feels a bit empty to me, but I couldn't think of more to add to it. Anything you think would make it better?

EDIT: I changed the pic because I realized I was cutting off its head.



Okay then, would you be able to create one for me then? I'm not too sure with the exact details... maybe something with Buizel and Dragonite on it, looking awesome?
Thanks! :)
Hmm, I could try something with that. Will start on it tomorrow. I am tired and have finals tomorrow.

You dont have any of the following:
Lighting
Depth
Flow
These are all essential in a good tag. I suggest you start practicing these technices through tutorials and then create your own style or just pick how you wanna do lighting, depth, and flow. :D

Oh and could you have Diablerie on it somewhere too, otherwise it isn't really a signature.
Thanks!
Actaully it still is
