    I'd like the think I'm at least somewhat talented at making sigs, despite being horrible at art. I make sigs in GIMP 2.6 (I'm not sure if it's 2.7 now, but eh). I go by CapX2 on other forums, so I'm not stealing, I assure you! ;O I'll update this when I make something new.

    I do take requests, but not for userbars. :3

    The newest sig I made, I don't think it's as good as the first version, but that's what happens when you're taking requests, heh. Made for Rare Poison.

    I like this one a lot. I used about four~ gradient maps to get the sepia-tone like effect. The background was made entirely using brushes, and yes, I do have a moon brush! It's about time I put that thing to use. :3

    I'm on the fence with this one, sometimes I think it's really dull, but others I think it's really good.

    A banner for a forum game on another forum. I'm really proud of this one, and the thing took about 2 hours to make, including a failed iteration that I scrapped.

    I'd like to say, your work is good. But ofc it is evident that I would think that as I use your sig. I kind of agree that the 3rd one is a bit dull and I like your "Children of the damned" one its pretty cool, even if it is out of context.
    You used a moon brush 0_0. Kudos

    Edit: I would also like to make a request for an avatar. One with Weavile would be cool. Some red-ish colours would be nice, as they go ok with Weavile and already got blacks and blues in sig. Pretty vague but so was my specification for this sig. That turned out great.

    Amethystic can remove the theme tag by himself... He only has to select "edit post" then "go advance" and there he will find the correct option to get rid of the tag. Anyway, the banners are fantastic, I really wish I could do such works! :)

    Removing the theme tag is done. I must have forgot to switch it back to no prefix after fiddling around with how this forum works, oops. :3

    I'll probably make some stuff today, cus I'm bored. xD

    EDIT:

    Sounds cool, I'll do it in a bit and send it to you over on MSN or something. <3

    Looking good. Really like the 1st one, not much of a fan of the 3rd and 4th ones.

    Nice work on the Sephia tone in the 2nd one though. Looks real professional.
    Keep up the good work.

    The Empoleon one is great! I like the 4th one too, but the 2nd and 3rd one are still good.

    They're AMAZING! I still can't believe you can do these on GIMP so I'm gonna experiment myself XD It's really funny how I can't do Proper Banners/Siggy's but I can do Really Good Userbars (24/7 Requests for Animated ones) and you can do Amazing Banner's Sigs. Especially Considering how HoS say's they're good as well so yeah Please do keep up the work... tell me how you do this on GIMP hahahahahaha lol jk

    Also If you do ever want a Userbar just come into my Request thread when it re-opens. Keep up the AMAZING Work!
