the dante is very, very nice. but yeah its too big for a sig, but just showing off, don't worry about it.

awesome.

Loving the sun and the sig, you get much better with every piece you produce.

Exfoliate · 16-04-2005, 03:06 PM

Thanks you two, glad you like 'em. It really does make a difference when I use some adjustment/fill layers and tweak the layer styles.

I appoligize for pretty much (inadvertantly) stealing your idea Waffles but here's something I whipped out a hour ago:

Waffle · 19-04-2005, 10:28 AM

sweeeet....

can i suggest you delete the "black" background layer, so that the sig is transparent there, it would look a lot slicker

Exfoliate · 19-04-2005, 05:12 PM

Sure, I'll try that, oh, and HALO is very cool, the color scheme is perfect. How'd you get the border though?

Waffle · 19-04-2005, 05:13 PM

some one hasn't checked shattered realms today have they

Exfoliate · 19-04-2005, 05:21 PM

Oh, yeah, just got out of bed. Ah, and how do I get the canvas bit to become transparent, use the rectangle tool to select the top bit and make a really low opacity white color?

Waffle · 19-04-2005, 05:24 PM

I assume you mean the 'background' layer?

You can either double click it to make it into a normal layer, then grab the rectangle marquee, drag over the white and hit delete.

or you can go File>>New>>and specifiy "transparent background".

Exfoliate · 19-04-2005, 05:46 PM

Ergh, it doesn't want to leave...I thought I did it right?

Waffle · 19-04-2005, 06:11 PM

its because you are saving it as a jpg. gifs preserve transparency.

what is that background image of? it looks like a ship?

Exfoliate · 19-04-2005, 11:32 PM

Ah, right, saved it as a jpeg cause it looked a little better and was 20k smaller or so.
The background is actually alot of stuff, unfortunately I thought the same thing but those are actually telephone wires, then tehre's those pointy buildings and some random house, some tubes and the rather out of place tenticles. I got pretty much all the stuff out of the famous image with the guy in the center standing like he is on a street with a bunch of civlians covering their heads, we've all seen it.
Now it's a gif but still looks like it did?? Must be doing something wrong again, I feel like such a noob.

Lookin good! Only change I'd like to see is lightening the black line of the border where it goes through his head. Brrrrr.... real nightmare background. Good work!
