Hi there!

I've a question-- I am loving using WMV, and want to make another signature, finding so many of the amazing ones around here inspirational. What I'm lost with are backgrounds. Where are y'all finding them? I guess I can log into wow and do a screenshot, but not sure that'll work.

Thanks for any help!

Actually, I take my own WoW screenshots and make them my backgrounds. Depends on the request I get, sometimes people want a particular favorite zone or if the colors fit perfectly. All I do is go to the zone and take some shots, then use em in photoshop. With the exception of Neverforever's hunter, its what I always do.

I myself google pictures, specially for wallpaper sites (i'll browse through their free to download stuff incase they have anything copywrited) but of course theres always taking pictures yourself with a really good camera in whatever setting you want and taking WoW screenies :3 or one thing you can do is to get a plain background with only color and pattern if you want, and add stuff to it like buildings if you want a city setting or trees and bushes for a natural environment (theres tooooons of stuff like that in WMV)

Just something to remember if you use screenshots... I always do "alt+z" to remove the UI. That way its a full shot of just the area, no UI bits included.

Thank you so much! I am really enjoying playing with sigs... I might never be as good as some of the amazing artists here, but I figure as long as I like what I'm doing it's all good. ;D

And I love how totally different both of your sigs are, and yet how both are so amazingly good at portraying the feel of your hunter! Lovely!

Indeed, tis the whole point.
