I\'ll see what I can do. :)

*Need to install Photoshop first though*

Post by: Jedi on July 13, 2003, 12:50:48 am

I\'m not too bad with Photoshop. I\'ll make you one. Do you want it to be cool or goofy?

Title:
Post by: Moogie on July 13, 2003, 01:08:52 am

Here\'s my submission. From my first post to this one, that\'s how long it took to hand draw  this sig for you in Photoshop. Hope you like. :)

Ok after seeing Mogura\'s I didn\'t even want to try to make a better sig. It looks really good.

Hey they look nice! I like the sig you\'re using too, who made that?

Title:
Post by: Monketh on July 13, 2003, 03:34:10 am

hmm... the blue one is nice... and so is the red one...

Title:
Post by: Kathmor on July 13, 2003, 03:48:38 am

I made the one I\'m using. Yea I like the blue and red ones the best. If you have suggestions to change any of them just say them and I\'ll try my best to fix it.

Edit: Spelling

Title:
Post by: Moogie on July 13, 2003, 03:55:58 am

Well, if I could make a quick suggestion myself... the text on the red version looks chunkier or brighter than the blue, no? I like the smaller text of the blue sig but the colour of the red (hurts your eyes a bit hehe).

I could swear I\'ve seen that sorceror picture before... drawn by an artist at Elfwood (http://elfwood.lysator.liu.se/), if I\'m not mistaken. :)

Title:
Post by: Jedi on July 13, 2003, 04:30:25 am

Here\'s a pretty goofy one. I tried to keep it simple...well, ok, really simple. :,

(http://img.villagephotos.com/p/2003-5/191330/monkethgoof2.jpg)

If you don\'t like them just say so and I\'ll make you a new one. Yes, if I have to make you a hundred different ones! You will use my sig! *waves hand frantically* Come on, Force! Do your stuff!

I\'m in the midst of the cool one :) ....Actually I haven\'t started because I haven\'t found any suitable pics, but yeah. I might have to just sketch them myself. :{ It\'ll be worth it! *Force burns out...Jedi\'s hand goes numb*

Gah! My friends, why you fight me?
Post you that just to spite me?
Are my sigs no longer good?
Have I been shunned the Brotherhood?
Shall I wonder the streets for bread,
forever this woe upon my head?
All my dreams that I have sought,
Smashed as if of glass were wrought.
All around me see me fake,
For the single sig I failed to make.

*chuckles at jedi\'s*
Those are worth considering

I also like the text on kathmor\'s second and third on his recent post

They\'re all turning out very well :)

Edit: All will be decided several days from now

Edit some more: \"PS2: Much to learn you still have to (dunno why, just sounds cool)\"
Drop the \"to\" off the end, and you\'ve got a qoute from \"Star Wars: The Clone Wars\"

Post by: Yann on July 13, 2003, 03:01:56 pm

Loool Jedi\"s \"Monketh\" sig is really funny !  :D
And all the others are simply very nice.

Great job, guys ! If i knew some people would do that, i would have offered my Mug to the best sig drawer  8)

PS: Jedi, may the force be with you, err.. maybe...
PS2: Much to learn you still have to (dunno why, just sounds cool)

Title:
Post by: Jedi on July 13, 2003, 03:23:25 pm

:D Thanks, Yann. It\'s been a while since anybody\'s recognized my true potential...or lack thereof. :(

Say, Yann. Are you into the Sword of Truth? Just wondering. Your sig, y\'know.

I think the bet one would be Mogura\'s. I knew it was hand-drawn the moment I saw it, but still, the effort that went into that...*shakes head* I don\'t really have the patience for that kinda stuff. Although I can spend a long time on things such as this wallpaper. http://forums.tendonet.com/attachment.php?s=&postid=45696

Oh well, I\'ll post the \'cool\' sig as soon as I finish it...IF I CAN FIND ANY GOOD PICTURES! Geez, Google sucks.

Title:
Post by: Monketh on July 13, 2003, 03:30:25 pm

\"The Jeditrix: In theathers August 11\"
Lol, that\'s the funniest wallpaper I\'ve ever seen! :)
Not to mention despite being funny it looks a little cool too.

Man, I didn\'t think this thread would be so popular.

What s \"Sword of Truth\"? ... The name of the book where i stole this pic maybe ?

Title:
Post by: Jedi on July 13, 2003, 03:38:41 pm

You stole it? You bloody thief! Grrr...

Just kidding. I get my pix from...other sources...as well. No, that book was book two in the Sword of Truth series. Very good series if you\'re into reading. Big books, though.

Heh, thanks, Monketh. I think.

Title:
Post by: Xalthar on July 13, 2003, 10:09:57 pm

Well yann you actully \"stole\" copyrighted material... that pic in your sig is cover art from terry goodkinds book, \"Stone of Tears\" (a very good book I might add ;)) and is drawn by Keith Parkinson. So I\'d watch out if I were you :P

Title:
Post by: Yann on July 14, 2003, 12:23:26 am

Imagine if they hunt everybody who \"steal copyrighted stuff\". I don\'t think i take a big risk.

PS: Thx Keith Parkinson  :D
PS2: Oh and if you have a better sig (not copyrighted), as i said, maybe i could offer my mug...  8)

Title:
Post by: Jedi on July 14, 2003, 12:44:28 am

I could make you one.

Here\'s the \'cool\' one I made for Monketh.

http://img.villagephotos.com/p/2003-5/191330/monkethcool.jpg

Fear not! If you do not like it, just tell me! I will make you a new one!. I actually have several variations, but due to image hosting problems I am chafe to upload them. However, I will if you request it. :D

hmmm...AS you can see, Villagephotos is sucking right now

Title:
Post by: Moogie on July 14, 2003, 12:50:38 am

Jedi: Try http://www.hostmysig.com, there\'s only room for 10 pictures but the good thing is it won\'t suddenly go down due to \"bandwidth limit\".

Title:
Post by: Yann on July 14, 2003, 01:05:35 am

Well, i am not sure about posting something to ask a sig for me in this thread.
But... i will do it (scuse me Monketh).

I\'d like a sig with me, an evil assassin, carrying 2 weapons: a dagger, and a short sword.
I d like the pic to say \"Errion\", \"Leader of the Shadowhand\" (like my actual sig). And maybe \"Let the Dark become your Ally\"...
Design it as you want, although i would love it with some black and green.

Yes, i know that this might be very difficult to do. It won\'t be an easy one.

Title:
Post by: Moogie on July 14, 2003, 01:10:23 am

I\'ll see what I can do.

Title:
Post by: Moogie on July 14, 2003, 02:03:48 am

Couldn\'t stick to what you wanted unfortunately, but I decided to use my last hostmysig.com space for this anyway. You don\'t have to use it, I was just bored. :)

Ooh, thanks a bunch, Moogie. ;) That Errion one is really nice. I\'ll try my hand at making one, but I don\'t think it\'ll be that good.

Here\'s the sig.

Heh, in this frenzy of siggy goodness I decided to make myself a new one. AGAIN!

Title:
Post by: Jedi on July 15, 2003, 07:00:37 am

I know the img code, but it\'s not working for me. Thanks, though.

LOL @ Moogie\'s sig. As if you\'d ever harm a n00b!

What happened to the...other...one? ;) Nice one, bunny. :P

Title:
Post by: Drilixer on July 17, 2003, 12:59:12 am

I\'ve definately seen the picture of a sorceror with a staff of Kathmore\'s before on a Diablo series fan site...  the lettering that he uses matches the Diablo font as well... just to point that out...

Title:

So...what are you saying? He\'s obviously a Diablo fan! :D

Anyway, after much deliberation i have decided the victor is moogie.  (however, there was not a bad sig to be found, I wish I could use them all :P )

Gah! Sooo much to read! *dies* :) :P

Post by: Moogie on July 28, 2003, 06:10:05 pm

C: lots of fire and sparkley stuff
D: has to have an orignal background like lots of big scary monsters and stuff!!!!!!
E: a bubble over my head that contains the meaning of life
F: more fire and sparkley effects!!!!
G: a random picture that you rip from the planeshift screenshots page in the background *cough* Kathmore\'s entry *cough*
H: my Kran has to be proudly holding the one ruby that he has found during his life in Hydlaa

I think that would be nice - cmon who wants to help me out ! Please!!!

Post by: Ziros on August 06, 2003, 05:27:50 pm

hey everyone. I make custom backgrounds in PhotoShop, so, if you want just a background done (for sigs, websites, etc) then just ask me ;)

here\'s a sample of my work, if you like any of them, feel free to use them :)

Post by: zabeal on August 06, 2003, 09:05:21 pm

Nice, ziros! If I wasn\'t completely against graphic sigs,  Iwould ask you for one. I once played around in The GIMP, and combined a funky background like what you have with a text selection, and made some cool ooking text. If I was going to do a sig now, it would be something like that, just a big ZABEAL in funky colored letters.

yeah, someone go ahead and come up with the meaning of life so I can cut and paste it onto my sig!!!  I\'ll give you my one ruby if the skys open up and I hit nirvanna after reading what you have come up with :P

Title:
Post by: Half_Pint on August 08, 2003, 03:13:24 am

The meaning of life?  That\'s obvious, isn\'t it?

collect crystals!!! You are telling this to the guy who has only collected one ruby and doesn\'t plan to ever touch one again!

Yeah, I tryed to \'knock off\' my character with that one crystal.  But for some reason, he couldnt swing his arms! I panicked and struck to strike the wretched thing against a wall... but to no avail!  I was incapable of lifting my arm in anger or fear.  There must be some powerful wards around the city of Hydlaa...
