I voted for both of these!

I love what you did with the avatar. It was very creative and stood out nicely!

The signature is very pretty too. <3

I love the colours and effects you used in the background. The lighting really makes the text stand out nicely too!

Great work on both of these!
 
Thankyou for voting for my entries!
Anywho:

Love love love this one! ^^

The placement of Lightning is spot on, the lighting, effects, and background all fit together nicely, and the font is cool too, I love how it's all come together, probably my favourite from you so far.

Very Well Done!

This one is nice, and the effects all come together nicely, but two things are bothering me. the first being the border. I'm not sure whether it's because the height of the tag is not as high as it should be or something like that, but the border seems to cover a bit too much of the tag. Perhaps, if the border was reduced about 1 or 3 pixels, then it would look better imo. The second thing bothering me is the contrast on Noctis' face. It seems you overused that Burn Tool just a tad. Aside from those minor qualms, I quite like this tag :ryan:.

This one is definitely interesting. The C4D usage is interesting as well, and the sharpness of the effects provide for an okay look, but I can't help but be a nitpicker and say that the brightness is just a tad high. On a more positive note however, I love the concept, and you have perfect placement for both the star, and the text; i love that. Just the sharpness needs a little work.

Not much to say here but that this avvy is pure win :ryan:. seriously, it's epic :andry:
 
Hey hey youv gotten alot better from the days of the TT. ^^

Id like to see you work with some brighter colours, looking through yer thread i think they work better for you than the earthier darker tones youv been using recently.
The noctis one has been nicely put together with the vectors put into the back, its defintely got the grunge effect going on. I would maybe suggest some more fonts aswell, modern fonts are nice but they sometimes stand out a little bit too much. Some nice simpler ones might work better. Adding colour to your text is a great way of pulling it together. Look at your tag and what the main colour theme is and pick a colour from there using the eye dropper tool.

Your improving alot tho, kudos :)
 
I wanna comment on your text. :gasp: Your latest Alicia Keys sig is stunning, and I'm also talking about text wise. I can't believe you jumped from choppy text to professional looking in like... one update o_O It looks really nice, sure there's room for improvement, but from all the updates, the text is this one is your best yet.

As far as the signature itself goes, I think it's a very nice piece, the only thing I'd look at is the lighting on Alicia herself, it looks a tad off. Very nice though, you're improoving so quickly these days. :gasp:
 
I made this a couple of weeks ago, the first week I had GIMP, so...

The blue pattern on the left needs to be blended with the picture better. And the little dots in the middle a little right of the mouth look a little weird for this picture.

But other than that, I think it looks good.
 

Oh I really like this one!

I love this one more than the first one as the white background is a better contrast against the colours. =)

I adore the text! It's just so pretty!

The patterns behind her make Hayley stand out beautifully and the nice sharp image of Hayley looks fantastic!

Awesome border too. It makes it look like the signature is popping out. =)
 
Very nice Kat. I think the CD4 on the right, the blue stripes, were a bit too much, but overal, great signature. Your text is getting better and better as well, it compliments your piece.

Interesting use of colours, and I really like the squiggly lines by his shoulder on the right for us. :wacky:
