OMg Ashaine, that is just such a pretty picture, fits Bunnis charactor well as being peaceful and serene, fits her back story of being a reluctant hunter and being a protector of the animals and her homeland an not wanting to take life whereas she would just love to stay at home living in peace with her pets.

Lovely just lovely, I have it as my background on my pc. Can I ask how you add it to the forum?

Thank you very much. Superb work as always.

I'm pleased that it turned out to your liking! As for how to add it as your signature: Go to User Control Panel/Profile/Edit Signature. Once there, click on Img and then add the web address of your signature. I hope that helps! <3

Bodhran, your signature is done!



For some odd reason, I had one heck of a time with the text in this picture. Anyone know other ways of putting text into signatures than the text option in Photoshop? Seems others on the site are using different editing programs to 'line' or 'shadow' the people/pets in their signatures as well as their text. I may have to PM Veph and/or Sookie as I'm honestly curious how to do this. What can I say, I'm still learning and working to hopefully get better as I go.

At the risk of repeating what you already know, both line and shadow are doable—both with text layers and raster (regular image) layers—by using Layer Styles. Double-click on a Layer in the Layer palette and you'll get a list of all the different styles for it, which you can mess with at your leisure. My favourites are Stroke (1-3px, centered), Drop Shadow (usually default settings, sometimes a different angle and almost always a different colour than pure black. If I want it to be a firmer shadow, I'll lower the distance and spread as well), and Outer Glow (for adding, well, a glow around the layer).

Of course, you can always do it manually, and sometimes it's easier to do it that way. My current sig's list of layers, as an example—you can see that I've got layer effects on both type and regular layers.

Layer groups are also pretty beast (hah, pun), like I've got my hunter's pets in. Layer 22 is just red boxes where I wanted the pets to be, and all the pets are grouped to that layer, so I can inch 'em around to get 'em just where I want them.

If you really want to, you can also make your text layers into regular layers by selecting your type layer and going into Layers -> Rasterize -> Type. You won't be able to correct typos or otherwise change your text after you do so, however.

Much obliged, Xella! I openly admit to being quite unorthodox when it comes to creating signatures. Thus, the information in your reply was very helpful! I greatly appreciate it!

I'm delighted that you like it! I tried to branch away from the norm a bit on this one and attempt something different.

Litlemouse's signature is gorgeous Ashaine. I love clicking on this thread, there's always something amazing to gawp at!

Well, she is a -night- elf, so the background fits to my liking, and I personally love the look of cats next to her, they fit in well. (As with all female nelfs? *shrug*) Especially Toph (the white one) looks awesome curling around me B)
(Well maybe not curling around me, but you get the idea)
Plus without a helm I look pretty xD
The colors on the right also look very good, and the paw prints are cute :3
And- and- Moony! (the grey cat) :O I couldn't have a siggy without Moony in it! My ole' buddy! <3
I dunno, it just, fits ^_^

Aww. Thank you so very much, Mozag. That really means a lot. I've been feeling a bit down and out lately and hearing feedback like that is most reassuring.

And your signature is quite something as well Ashaine

Each of them brings the characters and their companions real personality, the kind that im sure everyone who has requested a sig has been trying to acheiv in their characters in-game and i think its absolutely fabulious, part of the reason why i just haaaad to see if i could squeeze in my request :3 the backgrounds are equally as amazing and really helps in bringing the whole thing to life

Ashaine for my backround could i have snowy mountains?

Certainly! Also, did you want the helm shown? Yes or no? I assume no unless I hear otherwise.

Why thank you, Xakaal! I Certainly try my best to create immersive pieces and work zealously to add personality to each charcter and pet. Often that means manipulating the WMV models to some extent (which I hope sets me apart from other signature makers). I'm also hoping to offer animated and hand drawn signatures in the near future. <3

ServÅntos, your signature is done! I experimented a bit with this one. I hope it is to your liking!
