I don't think I'll get my sig privileges back for a few weeks, so I was wondering if somebody could make me one in the meantime.

I'd like a picture of a shovel, preferably horizontally, with a big arse shotgun adjacent, but facing the other direction, so:

Shovel tip---------Handle Shotgun Stock----------Barrel tip

With the text, Kasteres perfect arsenal under it, in grey-metallic-esque letters.

The background could be the letters COZ stretched very far across, with the tops and bottoms of the letters slightly out of view, in black, with the colour behind it being something that obscures neither.


For the "Kasteres perfect arsenal" part, some kind of military font, and for COZ, system, please.

Thanks a million.

Carnix 08-17-2007 04:38 AM

I got a bit confused with the positioning of the weapons (if they're wrong mabey a digram would help). And I couldn't find any good military fonts.
But I think this is still pretty good, so here you are.

Thats Incredible! even better than I pictured.

I am usre this sounds nit-picky, but could you possibly make the "Kasteres favorite arsenal" just a smidge brighter and/or bigger?

Still, thats an amazing job, kudos.

Carnix 08-17-2007 10:51 AM

Sure, you meen like this?

I just redid my sig and I can't seem to get rid of the white lines round the main image and I cant erase the whiteness around the tuff of hair. Mabey someone could help me?

Sorry, scrap that, I've done it now.

Spirrow 08-17-2007 04:27 PM

Kastere,

I already have your signature ready. Unfortunately, I'm out of time right now, so give me some time and I have it up hopefully tomorrow. I still need to upload it.

Mac Sirloin 08-18-2007 08:21 AM

Oh, I have all the time in the world.

Carnix 08-18-2007 08:33 AM

Can I ask why you lost your Sig privileges? or is that forbidden?

Spirrow 08-18-2007 02:08 PM

Finally got them finished all the way. Yes, 'them'. I made two entirely new examples:

Is that how you wanted the fade-out at the bottom?

Edit:
Oops, forgot about the gray metallic letters. Sorry. You want me to change them?

Mac Sirloin 08-19-2007 01:11 PM

Honestly, don't trouble yourself, this is more than enough, thanks.

I lost my sig privileges for using Shoop Da Whoop Gifs that were too large (In size, not FILE SIZE).

I got wanred and changed it, but that wasn't any better, so I lost them.

Spirrow 08-19-2007 02:06 PM

So you can't use sigs anymore, is that right? Oh well. At least I learned a bit more about using two programs to make one sig.

Anyone else need one?

Carnix 08-20-2007 02:38 AM

I think kastere does intend to use a sig but he can't until he gets his privilages back, so your time was not wasted.

mudling 08-22-2007 01:46 AM

hey, as I have come back, I would like a new signature, as my old one is kinda screwed, and I feel it was time for a change anyway.
I would be delighted if you made one for me, but I understand perfectly well if no one can lol. :)
but here is my template anyway:
Type of Picture:
Obvious, really. What do you want? A general picture, or an avatar, or a banner? This will keep me frommaking you guys an avatar when you want a banner.

Main Text:
The Mudling of ODD

Subtext (Optional):
The only way things get done is through odd

Font:
I would like some Strangers Wrath, Wild west kind of font, or just a formal kind of font would be fine.

Picture:
I was thinking along the lines of seckto and Molluck standing in the center, with a steef screaming and a Meech roaring on each side (one on each), the some critters and maybe muds in the sides and maybe in the distance. the middle would be industerilized and the sides would be native (maybe one side kinda the quintoligy them and the other SW, grubbs, kinda theme). if you want me to provide pictures or an extremly rough ms paint scetch please ask.

Theme:
Industerial and darky bluey in the center, and greeny, slight reddy orangish to the sides. oddworld of course. the idea is that the idusterial is dominating, causing extincton (the steef and meech) and thrusting the natives to the sides, where at the very edges it flurishes (forrest, brush, etc.)

Notes:
No boreder, though I think the pictures of the steef and meech should be kinda shown not be there, but in spirt, so maybe stretched or faded or see through a bit or something.
some sad faces of grubbs and muds on each side would be great. but maybe uccompanied by hope (with the grubb leader and a mud warrior), some innocent creatures like boombatz and elum (in the distance) would be great, and for the molleck and seckto to have their respective minions (wolvarks, outlaws (altough not technically correct), and then sligs, vykers and interns, in the distance.
I know this all sounds like too much, and is probably impossable, but please feel free to do what you want, in order to make what you think is best.
thanks so much in advance. :)

skillya_glowi 08-22-2007 12:51 PM

I tried. Unfortunately I couldn't fulfill ALL of your criteria, as I just couldn't do that without the signature looking too crowded. For that same reason I had to remove the subtext. If you really want it though, tell me and I'll fix it.

The Meech picture also isn't mine; it was made by SligStorm (I used it with his permission of course). So thankies to him. :-B

Spirrow 08-22-2007 03:07 PM

Edit:
Cool, Skillya! Good Job!

Maybe I'll do the next request. Anyone else?

mudling 08-22-2007 10:10 PM

I love it, thank you so much!:D

corpuschristie 08-23-2007 01:20 PM

Here comes my request: Main text: Don't Feed The Fuzzle!!! Sub text: in a oddworld of his own. font: munch's oddyish. picture: the meanest looking fuzzle you can find,preferably showing lots of teeth. theme: the forest. could you also make the fuzzle into a avatar for me thankyou

Spirrow 08-23-2007 01:47 PM

I'm on it.

Edit:
Ugh! I can't find a suitable theme picture. Can you give me another type of theme to work with?

skillya_glowi 08-24-2007 08:58 AM

Since you were struggling so, I saved you the trouble :p

http://i18.tinypic.com/63h6d7k.jpg

I also thought that the avatar would be cooler this way, if you want the full view of the fuzzle, then tell me, OK? :D

Spirrow 08-24-2007 10:44 AM

Ack, you acted to fast without double-checking first, Aggie. It's 'In an Oddworld of his own', not 'In an Oddworld all his own.

skillya_glowi 08-24-2007 10:45 AM

Oh yeah....doesn't matter, I can change it in two minutes.

EDIT: Presto!

Spirrow 08-24-2007 02:55 PM

I hate it when other people post sigs made with Photoshop and I'm stuck using 5-10-year-old crap. What version of Photoshop do you have, anyway, Glowibells.

Well, the sig is a total lag, but maybe the avatar will look better when I get it up.

Here you go:

No one's forcing you to use the 5-10-year old crap at all, Spirrow. And I use Photoshop 7.0.

Spirrow 08-25-2007 03:13 PM

Photoshop 7.0.? Oh, yeah, wasn't that the one made for editing actual pictures photos and portraits or something like that. Yeah, I've seen it on Ebay. I can't believe that they'd see Photoshop CS3 for only 1??-seeing as several didn't even have bids on them. Those people are probably hoping for multiple bids so the price for the program will skyrocket.

I might save up one day to buy CS3...though I'll probably have to buy a whole new computer first as there's no way I'll be able to download this on the current computer I'm using.

Good work, my American friend.

corpuschristie 08-25-2007 04:27 PM

Thank's to the both of you,they are both brilliant,but i will wait until i have seen spirrow's avatar before i decide which to use.you never know,i could end up combining the two,ie: the sig from one and the avatar from the other.At the end of the day i could not even begin to make something like this,so once again thankyou both of you

Spirrow 08-25-2007 06:08 PM

Alright, I made a few examples for now. Don't forget if you don't like the picture frame, I can take it off anytime you want.

Here they are:

Transparent fuzzle.

Original fuzzle avatar.

Meh. The text is a bit warped.

corpuschristie 08-26-2007 10:07 AM

spirrow could you put corpuschristie across the middle pic? i think that would be awesome!!

Spirrow 08-26-2007 01:10 PM

This okay?

Here it is:
http://i117.photobucket.com/albums/o...rpusavatar.jpg

I enhanced the avatar a little so it's not so dark.

Edit:
Without the border:

corpuschristie 08-26-2007 01:22 PM

i like the framed one best,so i will use that and Skillya's sig. all i got to do now is learn how to upload them ,so i'm off to read one of Mitsur's how to posts. Again thankyou to the pair of you for doing this

corpuschristie 08-31-2007 02:14 PM

Skillya, i do not appear to be able to use your sig pic,because the byte size is twice the limit allowed, so is there any way you can reduce it? i would hate to have to lose such a good pic
