  1. hey i can handle that request... i've been kind of MIA the last couple weeks... hopefully i can get some people caught up. it might take me a while, but i'll get it done. post back here when its finished...

  2. haha sorry - didn't mean to be confusing...

     

    i was just saying a lot of people have trouble with cutting out the players... and it seems like a lot of people have used this eraser technique:

     

    basically you zoom in to about 500% (View - Zoom In). Then you click the eraser tool, and set its size to 5 or 6 pixels (There's a click and drag bar up at the top in the eraser's options bar). You start at a 100% strength (also an option on that menu) and erase roughly around the player. Then you lessen the strength to about 30% and erase right up to the player. You just sort of work away everything except the player you want cut out.

     

    hope that made sense.

     

    here's a tutorial on the boder i was talking about:

  3. Have you tried saving it as a GIF. file. It would blend the background more.

     

    how come does it look off? i used transparency so it doesn't have a background color. just curious cause on my end it looks like it matches.

     

    i saved it as a .gif and a .png... thought the .png looked better.

     

    let me know though, that was my first sig with something outside a border.

  4. couple observations:

     

    size - sometimes a bigger sig can look nice, but most of the time it just enlarges little mistakes... you might want to try and crop it down a little bit on top and bottom.

     

    background - pretty cool looking except for the color, if that matched the dolphins teal it might look nice.

     

    cutting - i know its kind of a pain... i use the free form lasso tool, but some people have said using a small, gradually lighter eraser works well. you just erase everything except the player. sometimes adding a small inner and outer glow to the final cut-out can also soften a rough cut.

     

    oh and border - sometimes a good border really makes a sig look finished

     

    anyways just my thoughts. keep at it though cause you have something there!

  5. yah i can definetely do that for you... don't worry about the pictures - i have a larger version of the first and many similar to the second... i'll try and come up with something you'll like.

     

    give me at most a couple days and i'll post back here when i'm done. thanks for the request!

  6. Graphics: Sigs, Avatars, Walls Request Guidelines:

    1. FIRST: to make a request, start a new thread in the Graphics Request Forum... This will keep this post clean, especially if you end up posting pictures...

     

    2. If you are requesting a sig of a relatively unknown player, please provide some photos for me to work with. Likewise, if you are requesting a sig of an extremely popular player, you may want to post some pictures so that I can either use them or use something similar. Keep in mind that higher resolution photos always make for higher quality sigs.

     

    3. When making a request, list any specifics you'd like me to include on the sig.

    Your SN

    Additional Text other than the player/team's name

    A certain look you want to achieve (unique color scheme, etc.)

    Etc.

     

    4. It will usually take me at least a day to complete a sig. Based on my somewhat busy and always changing schedule, the wait could be longer. Once I respond saying that I'm going to make your sig, it shouldn't take more than a few days.

     

    Thats it - I don't mind overly specific requests, and I don't mind requests that leave it all up to me. Once the sigs are done I'll post a copy in your original thread and a duplicate in this thread to keep track of the work.

     

    Thanks!

  7. haha all right !! i'm glad everyone seems to like them... let me know if i can do any more - i'm in the process of doing a couple for another board... i'll update my samples page in a few days with all the new ones...

     

    thanks again!!

  8. I like your arod and vince young ones!!can you make me a michael huff one for me??

     

    yah i can definetely do a huff sig for you... although i think i'm ethically against doing a raiders sig... but oh well maybe i'll do a texas sig... wait thats just as bad... all right yah i'll figure something out.

     

    i'm really busy the next few weeks but hopefully i can get it done for you in the next couple days.

     

    let me know if you want any specifics - your name, etc.

  9. Hey Guys -

     

    I just wanted to introduce myself to the graphics board - I recently joined the team here and I'm excited about filling some of the graphics requests that everyone seems to have...

     

    You can check out some of my work - there's a link below my sig.

     

    Let me know what I can do! I'll check in from time to time to see if there are any new requests - it usually takes me a day or so to respond with the new sig... I'll do my best to keep up!

     

    Thanks! :D
