TM™ Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 Come and Check it out! Welcome to my GFX Topic/Showcase. Here is some of my early works of what I created a while ago, and some that have been created right now. Don't worry, it gets better towards the end of the topic. My GFX: Stay tuned for some more of my awesome GFX work. If you feel interested having your own custom made signature/avatar, then pop me a PM and hopefully it will be done within the next 24hrs. If I am unable to get a PM from you, then post in this topic. Thanks, TM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alkali64 Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 Real nice dude. I can't really give much constructive criticism as i don't know allot about Photoshop myself, but maybe you should try and use a little more variate. It just looks like the same background effect in most of your works. They have been done well nonetheless, good job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Connor Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 Those are some pretty sweet stuffs dude. Just try reducing the size of your outlines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TM™ Posted January 15, 2008 Author Share Posted January 15, 2008 Just made another one: It's pretty simple. If anyone wants this sig for themselves, just PM me, I'll just edit the name to whoever wants it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTA Don Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 (edited) Wow, you only just got Photoshop back and you already opened a GFX workshop. Good luck, your stuff looks good although it does look like you use the same effect each time. Good luck.

TM™ Posted January 16, 2008 Author Share Posted January 16, 2008 Okay, well I started my first signature where I can blend two pictures together into one sig. Took some time, but I found out how to eventually? For a start, it looks quite neat and I could do more better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fade effect looks good but the background doesn't really fit with Niko's outfit that he's wearing. The border looks as if it's visible at the top but stops halfway down. Not bad, better than what I can do, seriously. Edited February 13, 2008 by GTA Don Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TM™ Posted January 16, 2008 Author Share Posted January 16, 2008 Yes, I could of reduced the strokes size, it's an unusual size. I'm not sure about the border, I think I might of done it by mistake. Thanks for your feedback. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thomas. Posted January 17, 2008 Share Posted January 17, 2008 Good graphics, your well better than me or is it photoshop. I wouldn't know what program is better since I use Macromedia Fireworks. Good graphics though mate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTA Don Posted January 17, 2008 Share Posted January 17, 2008 (edited) Now,that's a nice a picture! The second was probably my favourite because of the font but maybe your fade effect should fade into the other picture there's a tutorial on YouTube somewhere, here it is: Edited February 13, 2008 by GTA Don Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TM™ Posted January 17, 2008 Author Share Posted January 17, 2008 Thanks guys for the feedback, I think the video helped me out a little, I'm gonna try it tomorrow since I'm sort of busy. But it thanks, Don. Macromedia Fireworks is a nice program to use, but I prefer Photoshop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TM™ Posted January 18, 2008 Author Share Posted January 18, 2008 Double Post. I made a banner for my site: I like it, especially with the Vinewood sign being replaced with TSOGTA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTA Don Posted January 18, 2008 Share Posted January 18, 2008 That`s sweet! Nice border,cool pics,text is good(font and stroke and bezel),I remember,MLL made that for you. Uh oh! I just noticed,the border stops when it reaches the TSOGTA sign,it does show a little bit,but it`s brown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ciaran Posted January 19, 2008 Share Posted January 19, 2008 Can I suggest trying to make the images fade in a bit better, it just looks like a grey space between each image. Also at the end it seems to fade out a bit too much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTA Don Posted January 19, 2008 Share Posted January 19, 2008 Yeah,that`s a good idea.It does look like there is a grey fade between the images TBH. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TM™ Posted January 19, 2008 Author Share Posted January 19, 2008 Well, you're right about the fade part, but the end has to be faded, because usually I get complaints from my forums that the banner isn't the right size, and eventually, when I see a print screen of my site, the banner looks small, but the rest of my logostrip on the top of the forum is basically left empty. I then recognized that the member that complained had a widescreen monitor. So the fade in I did in the end had the dark enough so that it could fade in with the hex colour code I placed for the logostrip. Also, thanks for the feedback. I'll try to make the fade in effect more better. EDIT: Tried the fade in effect, it worked: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TM™ Posted January 19, 2008 Author Share Posted January 19, 2008 Okay, well I played around with the "Fade In" effect and I made two banners: It looks alot better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTA Don Posted January 19, 2008 Share Posted January 19, 2008 Now that`s better! That`s really cool.You got the bezel just right,the stroke,the fade in effect looks wesome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrLlamaLlama Posted January 21, 2008 Share Posted January 21, 2008 Okay, well I played around with the "Fade In" effect and I made two banners: Not sure if you meant to do it like this, but that sig works really well, as all the perspectives move in towards the center of the image, which is just real nice, for some reason. Even though it leads the eye away from niko, and the site title. If you're planning to do anyhting more with it, make the text low profile, like, all one line, black stroke, slightly faded in the bottom right - ish corner... and move niko in from the right a bit, so he;s inbetween the center image and the stallion. But yeah.. dooz thay bee ma cuts ur usin'? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, I did use your cuts you made, but the reason why is because I couldn't be bothered to cut out any other piece of artwork/Character from an image. If I wasn't suppose to, then I won't use any of your cuts again. i got a stroke after i saw this IT IS DAMN NICE THE LAST ONE!!!!! Thanks mate.
