STING

[Killz]

It's just damn topical atm.

I suck at the following:

- Using multiple images
- Borders

So any suggestions for helping me out with that stuff would be appreciated.

Otherwise I guess just rate it? I don't really make sigs so this is a rarely walked path for me.

Great work for someone who so rarely makes graphics Killa.

The colours work well, and lighting of the piece looks good. I'm really digging the use of Sting's logo behind the text too, which is an innovative method.

Subtext font isn't great, but that's only a minor pick.

Overall, I'm a big fan.

As a quick fix for the border problem you say you have, use the following method;

- Create a new layer on top of all your others.
- Press control+a (select all)
- Go to edit -> stroke: use black, 3 pixel thickness (or whatever colour, thickness you desire)
- Press ok

Wala.

For something so simple I've literally never come across that method Dod, thanks a lot man

Also thanks for the kind words. It's weird, at the mid-point of a sig (say post-brush work/image insertion) I always think I'm onto something awesome but then something like border or text lets me down. I'll keep plugging away this time I think, try and stay with it. Thanks man.

Bump for update to the graphic. I straight got rid of the subtext and changed the bg brush work slightly. I made it simpler looking which I think worked.

Loving the darker, improved background; it adds a lot more significance to the rain and lightning.

Text looks good, as does the render and lighting. In fact, I really like the whole thing.

Nice work Killa.
