I'm pretty sure galleries consist of more than one piece, but whatever, the banner is pretty cool, good work. |

I like what you've got so far, but it needs something more. You have a great background, so now add an image or something. Or just make really big well designed text. There's just so much empty space. |

It is great so far but it is too empty... I'd suggest putting in a light blue pokemon in all that emptiness. And yes, that font IS ugly, I strongly suggest a change But that's just my (A.K.A a nobody's) opinion. Don't worry about it too much. |

The colors are fine as well as the pattern, and there nothing wrong with a simple signature. You don't have to add an image. I like it, though the text is off-putting. |

blah I was bored. I was too lazy to go find a render for it. I tried a battle revolution image of squirtle but it just looked awful D: I did download a bunch of texts, but they all looked even worse than this. I know, this sucks too, but it suits the sig better than the ones I downloaded. I'm going to try edit it though so the text + border look ok. EDIT: I tried and it looked worse. Oh well

If you're going to make a sig without a render, make the text bigger so the sig doesn't look so empty. Also, try a different font, and set the style to 'strong' (if possible) Also, don't be afraid to use default fonts. such as georgia, century gothic, etc.

why do you have a combee avatar. YOU KNOW COMBEE IS MY FAVORITE >:| anyways, thise are decent looking, the bidoof one is blurry, and they all need to look like you actually did work on them instead of adding a border and cropping it down to 70x70. Just my 2 cents. |

Quote: why do you have a combee avatar. YOU KNOW COMBEE IS MY FAVORITE >:| And you know I like annoying you :p Meh, I changed mine for you. I like Vibrava too 
But I can't see how I can fix the problem that they look like they had too little work on them (which they did D:). We all know I'm crap at putting text on anything. |

i agree with poplers about the fact that they look like you just cropped them and added a border. maybe try some pixel/bitmap fonts? if you set them to 7 or 8pt, put 'none' for the text style, and add a 1px border/stroke, it looks really nice on small avatars.

Meh, I let you pressurise me into adding text to one. 
How is it? |

They're just scans of TCG cards, nothing super-special. I crop stuff like that for myself often. (Like what I'm using right now.) That is not to say that they aren't ugly; they actually turned out quite well. Quote: and cropping it down to 70x70. The limit is technically 75x75, but both work well. |

How is it? If you use Photoshop / GIMP to make Avatar, try to stroke out the text

*Revives again* Meh, I decided to have a go at revamping again and this is how my attempt worked out. It took me about 40 minutes, because I completely redid all of the shading. 
I'm personally quite pleased with it. It's from Pokemon Yellow, btw. Quote: If you use Photoshop / GIMP to make Avatar, try to stroke out the text I have, and can use up to a point, GIMP, but I do prefer paint. The sigs I made at the top of the page were made using GIMP. |
