Thank you. I'd like to see what you can do with some of the test images, that way I can assess what you've done to the image from start to finish. Please make a couple with the images provided, and i'll offer some feedback.

First I chose this image to work with from the test images. I noticed before continuing that the background of the image was darker and the wolf had a small patch of snow on the nose so i then moved on to then next part.

2. View attachment 36615 View attachment 36616
After assessing the photo I looked on google images for an image that fit the wolfs image. After choosing the image I reformatted the picture to 500 pixels by 300 pixels. Then proceeded to the next step.

3.

I then took the resized photo and layered them together. Then i decided to make the wolf apear more transparent to give the photo a darker tone.

4.
Then I placed textboxes over the image and decided the font and font color that best stood out on the background of the image.

5. Then decided the final creation complete.

I appreciate you going through the steps, but I apologize for the confusion. I meant just post some works with the test images so that I can see what you can do with them.

Please keep all signatures under 500x200


that being said, I'd like for you to fill a request for me.


I'd like a signature that utilizes this image.

I'd like it to say "beauty in destruction"

I'd like a blue/orange color scheme.

 

[XGC Caesar]

There you go.

There you go.

This is image is too large! A signature max length is 500 pixels x 200 pixels.
If the request was for a wallpaper this would've been fine but radio asked for a signature.
If you can try to make your text blend in with the signature then it looking more like you just slapping text on it.
out of your 5 images you posted the last one is something im talking about but keep the. try having a focal point in your signature then everything all over the place. if you have a question about anything always ask any one of us at any time!
Please work on this signature again and show me what you can do

 

[XGC Caesar]

Okay ill make a few more and take what you said into play. Thanks for the feed back.

Since you use photoshop just when you make a new projects just enter the correct size to 500 x 200 pixels
like this:

reason i ask is because i wanted to see what changes did you make from it being the original image versus it being your image!
and to be quite honest i see know change besides you adding text to the top right of the image. Maybe a couple burns and blur tools could of been used text placement could be better.
i would like to see you make the signature where changes are made so its not like the original image.
put a little bit more time and effort into it, not saying that your not but i would like to see it different.
mess with filters if you want try some tutorials out for a start.]
dont get me wrong its good but i would call this a rough draft! i know you could do better
would you like a test image with a tutorial for some practice with tools?
