Title: Sotw Conversation Thread
Post by: metaldevil on October 01, 2005, 02:33:00 PM
I think my favorite entry of mine is the one for SOTW #5: Videogames. Yes, it's the one I've been using as my current sig for the past week or so. I love the curves I added to it to. I also think the overlaid speedometer is a great touch.

I think the worst sig out of all the entries in all the contests is probably my Batman Begins rip-off for SOTW #6: Movies. I was going to submit a Fight Club sig at first, but I got so terribly bored with it that I fell back on the last movie I saw at the movies. I did put some semblance of effort into it by replicating the bat logo with the pen tool. It wasn't a fun entry to submit. It was just there. Less boring than the Fight Club one, though.

this just came to mind. awal or someone can find a single render, and everyone has to use it. so we will have a bunch of sigs with the same render, but different styles.

ought to give like a 3 choice lead....you can have 3 renders to choose to put in your sig...either choose 1 or you can use up to all 3...

Gaussian blur on the edges will do you some good, and make the renders fit nicely into the background. I believe there is a tutorial on our EMP Forums.

Since this is a conversation thread and all, we should prolly try to compile a list of future SOTW themes.

One for me comes to mind are television shows.
Title: Sotw Conversation Thread
Post by: speed_racer88 on October 04, 2005, 12:41:00 AM
or A television show, and not cartoons, at least not for a while. I think it would be cool to narrow down the themes a bit, instead of just tv shows, or comics.

this render that we will use, is it going to be pre-cut or are we going to have to cut it out ourselfs. i like cutting it out ourselfs because there is a lot of people entering that just throw some brushes on, some color, and a random render they found on a website.

That depends on if Awal posted the picture of the duck and skeleton first instead of the R6: LD pic. But if Awal never posted the duck/skeleton pic, and if wadata04 already had the sig made using the skeleton/duck pic, then he entered the contest without checking the source render. So it would be his fault. I wasn't here when Awal started the thread, so I don't know if he did or didn't start the SOTW with the skeleton/duck pic. What do you suggest, Himura?

ok, i have the best signature idea of all! when you win a SOTW you get to pick the next, next topic. example: cowbell wins SOTW 7 and picks SOTW 9 theme. speed_racer88 wins SOTW 8 and picks SOTW 10 theme. what do you guys think?
Title: Sotw Conversation Thread
Post by: metaldevil on October 21, 2005, 05:41:00 PM
I don't agree with that idea. Nothing would stop the winner from going against everyone's wishes and making a lame theme like Halo. And nothing would stop any successive winners from doing the same theme over and over. It would take the fun out of having the XS graphics community share their opinions about what they'd like to see next.
Title: Sotw Conversation Thread
Post by: speed_racer88 on October 22, 2005, 02:37:00 PM
there would be rules of course, like:
1: you cannot choose a theme that has been used in the last 8 weeks.
2: no halo themes.
3: anything else goes, be creative!

i dont think an XS tribute would be good because, as we have noticed from past sotw, (or atleast i have) constrictive topics like one render dont turn out very well. more broad topics like tech, abstract and freestyle seem to have better, more diverse entries. i looked at the sigs that cowbell has been making, and got the idea of media players. we should make a media player(still fallow the rules, 450x125 and no animation).
Title: Sotw Conversation Thread

You're correct.  He says it on the porch before he calls Michelle (sp?) after he is grabbed by whatshername after he touches her and is slammed against the wall of her porch.  
He then procedes to wipe his lip on his arm, look at it, and say, "Nobody makes me bleed my own blood!"

Nice work, buuuuuuuuut it is sliiiiightly over XS size restrictions... I don't think you'll have to worry though, it's only 46KB

And the poll thing, I don't think there will be a poll. It's too easy for people to send out requests for votes on other websites and then have the people just register vote, and then never see XS again. It's all about security.

i suppose, and yeah, about the sig size... i don't think it's much of a problem, but then again i'm on a 1280x1024 res, so i don't know exactly how it would turn out on a 800x600... either way, if it becomes too much of a problem, and clutters the space, i'll get rid of it.
and about the poll, i suppose you are right, that  could happen... it's alright how it is now, i was just trying to help, i suppose i didn't spend too much thinking about it tho tongue.gif

I just witched to 800*600, and it's pretty big.  You might want to give it a quick check yourself and make a judgement call.  Or ask Awal.
I don't know how you guys can use those resolutions.  I HATE anything other than 1024*768.  And I mean HATE.  Maybe it's becasue I grew up with it, IDK.  I would never use anything else, though.

I know what you mean, anything but 1024*768 pisses me off, anything higher is hard to read and anything smaller is way to big.

I REALLY like that too.
Can we use online generators for this stuff, or must it be done manually (if it is chosen).  Manual would NOT be easy.  It would kind of be honor system, though.

You would make your sig, then use some effects to make it seem as though a set of words appears dark where the shadows are, etc.

I saw a tut on how to do it with an image, and in B/w.  Challenge would be to make it in color which would be hard, not some 2 minute job, and then to make it look good.  biggrin.gif

I thought it was a good idea.

Edit: i found the tutorial andhere it is.

no, it doesnt look like your laughing, you look like you need to learn how to take a joke and not be such a bitch about it. i wasnt trying to piss you off, i was just joking.

The tv was straight forward but i had to extend the rightside of the orange dude pic so i could resize it in a 450x140 ratio.
I only had sunday to work on it, and the idea came to me really quickly so it really wasn't much work at all.

If your curious, my succubus sig from SOTW 19 took the longest to do. Second to SOTW 18 (bike with dust spelling iffy). SOTW 21 (tech sig) - i had absolutly no idea what to do. I just through some crap together just so i could enter.

My skill is currently limited, so if i don't get inspiration for a great idea, my work suffers.

MX here's your pie.

see.. it's not just a crop.. he did a little PM also..

but yeah guys.. this gfx forum used to be crazy fun.. now people get pissed over the smallest things(yeah ino.. i've done it too)... i think.. we should start from scratch... and we can all get to know eachother again, no assumptions, no hate, nothin'...

and as for some of the better gfx guys on here picking on the people who have just started.. that's just plain mean... becuase i've seen alot of instances, where some of the newer members here get thier work picked apart be people who are clearly better then them.. let's HELP newcomes, and not make them feel like they'll never get better...

and yes.. i was there once too.. who wants to see my first sig??!??!?!?

yep.. time to make fun of haz now wink.gif  YES.. that is a crop, and a mix of 2 images! M$ paint.. proud of it!

This is gay, were fighting over pictures made with backed up versions of a 600$ program, get over it guys
art isn't judged on skill, its judged on creativity.

so calm the hell down and make some ART, dont bitch about some stupid SOTW.
