Considering that this board has really 0 discussion and is prmiarily a art gallery, I'd like to try adding a bit of both into one post. Find the oldest graphic you can, and post it in comparison to your newest. Also, if you want, discuss what you know you did wrong in your first and how you have improved it with your new one.  Well, with this one, I had a whopping 3 or 4 layers, no real background to speak of, and just about no layout. The text was slapped in the corner, and I think I put the picture of Joanna Dark that far to the left to hide the terrible cutjob I did on the side of her hair. Hell, just looking at the gun, I can see where I screwed up in that it dips in a bit. Given the PDZ and 360 basis of this, I figure this came out around October or November of 05, maybe even earlier.  With this, I've made some leaps and bounds over the first one I showed. There's actually a flow to this one, and a background. Not to mention, a sense of depth or a color scheme. |

Love the new Halo 3 Sig Brian  Ok, here is THE FIRST SIG I EVER MADE!!  Completely made in Paint, this was my old sig for the MK5.org Forums, All i did is that I grabbed a sprite of Noob Saibot from a MK Sprite ripping site (MKW.MK5.ORG), Slapped him on a Very Light/Fluro green backround, and drew White lines on him too make it look like hes listening to an iPod, the sig was made to spoof the iPod Ad's back then, this was way before I found out about Photoshop as I was using Paint at the Time And Heres my Latest one:  I love this one to bits, I really didn't think that the sig would turn out good ( This was at the first Steps ), but using the Displacement option really helped the sig, along with Erasing out the crappy bits and adding some color into it, I really wanted to give the sig a sort of Psycho kind of feel to it ( Since there is a Dinosaur in the Sig ), Overall this could be my Best sig yet. |

Oh here we go:  This was the first thing i made on photoshop in february 2006, my god I had no idea how to use the program and boy it did show, it took me 15 mins to do this and i felt so good for doing it and now I look back and I think wow, what a piece of crap. Now to the Present!: Well I've defo improved since that lolz  This took me a good 2ish hours to make the rainbow effect is basically gradients that i duplicated the layer used the motion blur and overlayed or soft lighted it depends on what looks good. the fireworks were brushes with a gradient. |

Your past is better than your present imo.

I don't have any really old sigs as they are all on my old computer which died a couple years ago, but here's probably the oldest one i did on the new PC, which kind of defeats the purpose of this post, but anyway:  Here's an quite an old one, but it's my favourite graphic i've made:  I think i beat you with this graphic, Mole. |

Well the oldest thing I could find was from June 26th, 2006  The whole thing looking back on it was a huge disappointment... It was way to small for what I wanted to do with it and it ended up way too cluttered and sloppy... Then I have my newest grasphic which, in my opinion, didn't get enough comments in the beginners thread (I thought the whole point of the thread was to get experienced vets to comment on the quality of the work being posted there and getting people to improve) img510.imageshack.us/img510/1334/vengeancecover1bk9.png |
