hey guys whats up? 56k warning

i actually just stumbled upon this section 2min ago clickin on a link thinkin it was the member ride section :santa_tongue:

im still makin my first time rounds around this site, as i just registered a few days ago. i saw a chop request and though id help him out... didnt realize there was a whole section for you guys.

im registered on MustangForums.com too, and we have a pretty extensive Chop Shop over there where i do a lot of work for some of the guys. ive been helping out over there for about a year and a half, so im not new to the photoshopness. ill gladly pop in and help you guys out with some stuff if you dont mind/want me to.

here's a link to our chop shop, so you can check out some of the stuff i have done... i dont have a much stuff on there as i used to, cuz of all the new members we have over there takin on the chops to do :santa_tongue:

my sig is actually my latest creation... if you havnt noticed, it changes, so ya gotta watch it :santa_wink:

 

Re: hey guys whats up.

i had some free time, so i thought id post up some of the stuff i have done recently

















here's some sigs i have done for different sites... the white areas match the forum background at MF, so it gives the impression as though some parts of the sig are on the forum itself... if you were wondering why i have a lot of white areas :santa_wink:

 

im not a fan of brushes.

ive done a ton with brushed backgrounds, namely abstract brushes, but anymore, id rather give the sig a theme rather than just a few random brush stamps.

this isnt all ive done... if i posted everything i have (and the ones i dont have record of anymore) from all the forums i have contributed to, that post wouldve be like a half a mile long :santa_wink:

 

maybe later...

i just got done turning this



into this, for someone.



which was kinda tedious and time consuming.

 

they look good :santa_afro:

it shows consistency with all the ribbon brushes. the sigs are a little big for my taste, and i dont like just letting the car float around unless its hangin off the edge of the background and into the forum page... but thats just my taste.

the stuff i posted above is more of my gaudy sigs, showing some of the more intricate stuff ive done in sigs. i really like just usin the original photograph and b&w'n the background and adding some scan lines... nice simple stuff, like this one:



it think it looks a lot cleaner and more professional lookin.

 

if you mean the animated ones, no. i did them before i knew about reducing the dither to get rid of the texture/distortion.

 

well .gif's also work that way too. but a lot of video cards dont support that for some reason. a lot of members, and even i have noticed when i used a certain computer, notice that when you use a transparent background, it wont always match up right, and the areas that are supposed to be transparent come out a different shade.

on MF, the background is one constant color, it never changes, so its a safe bet just coloring the "transparent areas" the color of the forum instead.

 

here you go. i wanted to try somethin different, so if you dont like it, you dont gotta use it if you dont want :santa_wink:

i realized i probably have to use the .png here with all the people that use the different formats, so i gave that a whirl :santa_wink:

 

thanks. im using that black and like dark red wine theme, i think its the default one... i originally made the outlines black, but you couldnt see them on this theme, so i changed them to the color of the car.
