This guy just keeps gettin' better and better, so much that it's scary. You seem to put plenty in the picture, but not make it cluttered. You've also mastered the mandatory "Pics Courtesy of RF.Net Premium" line as well.....something that I seem to have a bit of an issue with and doing.

Great job Nexx!

Later.

thanks for the props guys!
BW, the fonts used when doing "online graphics" are the most important thing.

usually you can use one of the fonts made for computer display (system fonts) because they show up clearer at a smaller size onscreen.

I use Arial Narrow for the smallest text, but Georgia, Chicago will work really well and read easily at 8pt font for sigs.

That sig's sweet nexx, i was wondering how long approximately it took you to make your sigs. Alot of your sigs have tons of detailed lines and stuff in the bg, but im assuming you have some presaved patterns or somehting. Just wondering.

You keep changing and adapting styles and the sigs keep comin out better. Keep it up.

Thanks Macc.
But something like this is actually easier to do than most sigs.
Since I use the same technique to make the lines and shapes, it doesn't take too long. (I think I spent about a 1/2 hour total on this one because I had the Burgess pic already cut prior.)

I didn't do any image manipulations on the other 3 player images, just simply cut the background using the polygon lasso tool and the shift key.

The lines in my stuff are always 1 pixel lines using the shift key.
I draw them all out and then use the eraser tool set at 25% to remove some of the line edges so that it doesn't stand out too much.

The most time-consuming portion is just getting the images sized and placed so they don't look crowded.

Hope this helps.
Nexx
