    Noob's Photoshop Works

    In my last time here I once made a thread like this. But since I'm such a lazy bitch, I'll just post my newest works here, looking for advice and critiques (as hard as they may be) as always.

    Though I've developed a bit, it's easy to see how bad I am compared to the amizing people in this site.

    Here I go:

    When using Overlay and color-balance effects, it's usually a good idea to promote text layers above the effects, especially for smaller fonts. The varied transparencies in the font created by anti-aliasing will take on different values from the effect and make the text much harder to read in some cases. To help it blend better, you can adjust the text color with a selection from the image or slightly increase the transparency of the text layer to allow it to take on a little color from the layers below it.

    You're not a noob <3! You obviously show some good knowledge in your works, job well done.

    My piece of advice is try a different style, as your signatures all seem to be about the same. Try to expand a little ;x

    I like if you're going to do that, my advice is browse signatures on a forum or DeviantArt or something and try to reproduce styles from ones that appeal to you.

    Don't ever waste time opening Photoshop to do something you don't want to do, though. That's just not fun.
    omfg GW2!

    I've been trying to use the advices, though not as successful as I'd have liked. And here are some more updates:

    I'm not a technical expert in the realm of graphics but I will say, purely from a consumer and end-user perspective, that there is some marked improvement in your work. Of this most recent batch the last two in particular show some real improvement. The last one there I like the most, the color palette you chose is nice.

    Thanks so much Carlos! ^-^ I'll work hard to develop more.
    And here some more stuff, sadly I was unable to achieve something as good as other works.
