Here are all my old sigs/tags I used to make. I really have no time nor motivation to make any more, but I like to see people's thoughts on them, any way. :x I did put a lot of work into each one of them, so I like to bring them up every now and then because I think it is sad to just throw away all my hard work (even though it may not look it). These are in order of newest to oldest (the last time I made a sig was probably summer of 2008).

Another photographer. <3

My favourites of them are kumoga_hikaru__by_Hantsuki.png, Under_The_Rain_by_Hantsuki.png and shizuma_iku_taiyouo_miru_goran_by_Hantsuki.png.
The other shots seem a bit random, as if taken without thought. :/

Also get rid of the black frames, the take a lot of the focus away from the actual photo. D:

As I was trying to say before the DBE…

The black frames are what makes an image not blend into another image on a display. Although there does need to be a top border too…

I also think you need to have a single typeface for the text instead of the pretty text that suits that image. It kinda ruins it as a set.

Favourites include:

Under The Rain
Through The Fire
Innocence
End
Standing Still
Spiral
Hallway
Architecture
Flower Blooms
Look at the Setting Sun
Clouds Shine
Dog Lies Down
Spider Creates
Railing

Especially love the ones I've put in bold.

As for the tags:

These are decent…

Also thanks for the reminder of the anime School Days. xD

Josephine: I usually take shots based on if something looks very appealing to me, and I also take shots for photo shoots and projects for my photography class, but I submit the ones I actually like. o.o; I am sorry that they seem a bit random to you!

Hmm, I have also thought about that too. However, I add the frame mainly because I am paranoid of art theft (not like anyone would steal my work any way, but it could happen any time). I really have no other way of adding some kind of signature onto my pictures besides the way I do them now. I would just put text directly on the picture, and blend it so it is not as distracting, but I still feel that it is distracting. At least by adding the frames, my pictures will not have some distracting text or lines or anything on them, if that makes any sense. :x Thanks for pointing that out though. Like I said, I had been wondering about that too. It is just that no one has ever been bothered by the frames before.

It was funny when I typed it.: I will keep both suggestions in mind. Like I said to Josephine, I need a way to add some kind of signature to my pictures so I do not have to worry about them being stolen. I will try to use a single font for each image too, but I just thought it got boring, so I tried something different. :x Thanks for the suggestions!

I was hoping my sigs were at least decent. :S

And you are welcome! XD

Greatly improved now that there's no border, in my opinion. :]

My favourite out of that lot are "Smile", "The Essence of Winter" and "The Barks Snare".

A few of them could be cropped to make them better, or just positioned differently.
For example if you had moved the camera a little further to the right in "Of Circles and Rectangles" so that less of the shadowed part of the wall was visible.

Might edit later to comment on more.
