IMO, the sharpened picture looks better it brings out the light frags better =] But if you’re torn between them, why don’t you just take the non-sharpened one and place it as the bottom layer, and the top layer(sharpened one) and just lower the opacity =] but still

Both of them look badass, but i likes the sharpened one betta

Pretty random shit, right? haha

No, see you want to act like you’re the victim, but I’m the one who has to look at the damn thing.

You’re just completely fucking up your work by constantly doing that, and you haven’t ONCE been able to explain why you do it either, you just hide the behind the excuse that it’s your style.

First off, the stock is a FOCAL POINT. You put that shit on an empty canvas, and now you have to create a foreground and background to go with it, so that all the pieces work together to create something with a good flow / style / whatever to it.

And the thing is YOU DO THAT just fine, but you keep fucking it up by duplicating the god damn stock and sneezing it all over the rest of the piece, and it always, ALWAYS LOOKS BAD. It’s never once ADDED quality to your work, it’s just taken it away, especially since you’ve never really sat down and really worked a way to do so that didn’t leave me wondering what crew of monkey’s had their hands on your PSD after your had finished the damn work.

Seriously, look at this piece:

What the HELL is the point of that shit on the left? What possesed you to put that TETRIS BLOCK shit on the left? That absoultely RAPES the nice flow this piece had going. That T-shaped shit alone is awful, but you throw in the mirror stock and it doubles up in awful. I can’t begin to FATHOM why you did it, so explain it to me.

And what’s with the slight duplication of the stock and placing it behind him? Ninja after images? Kage no Bushin Jutsu? It’s one thing to do the above, but do it UNDER the focal point? Man, do I even have to explain to you why that’s so wrong?

Come one now Tat.

no you’re just looking way into it. . .

A-i suck at making sigs imo. .I had blank space and I felt way to much of it. . . but I don’t make it stand out to the point you’re getting at. . .

B-Every fucking time i show a set you always find the 1 that has the render possibly twice in the sig. . I get it you really fucking hate it and it looks bad. . .9/10 i agree. . but it’s for me!. . .

C-Maybe i’d listen to you if you actually showed something once i awhile. …

You act surprised, he dishes out like 10 new sigs everytime I look up. I think he just needs to slow down, maybe try doing some stuff with out all the flash and get down the basics princibles of design.

Sorry Tat Guy, I know were hearing this the last time I was posting lol. I guess it’s not that big of a deal.

Edit- I think he’s right though, and to me it’s not just that one little thing. Your current av for example, it’s cool but some things just don’t make sense to me; the border is way too dominating, why have one at all? and the text, well I could be wrong with this one but I kind of think it would be better off to the right of remy and in white, but I’m not sure. Also even if that sig was with out the stuff Chibi mentioned, It still looks like it lacks focus to me and it looks kind of shallow- but I’m honestly not a fan of the random/hazy/watery background the blends in with the render to begin with. I mean if you just want to make avs and sigs and don’t really care much about getting better, and you like your work, it doesen’t really matter.
