Well I was annoyed about the comments and the only way I could defend myself was to write what I know.. and by doing that I revealed what sig I made.. and the whole point of this is to be anonymous.. and well.. you figure it out..

Sick of the "open, artistic" sigs. So obviously done by the same person.
No.4 for me. It really is amazing. GJ!

5 feels like it came out of an advertisement for Gran Turismo or Motor Trend.

Really pretty impressive.

10.

Subtle, stylised. Good use of effects. Polished. Not too complex and doesn't hurt the eye but does catch it. Nice colour work. All in all a sig I'd happily call my own.

R3v, yours is good too. Try make the deadline next time... The contrast and colour scheme you have in yours is brilliant.

Edit.

As to everybody liking 5... I've never really liked Zimmers sigs. I think it's Zimmer's. Just don't like his style really.

Though the babes he posts in the babes thread are.
It's not Zimmers... I know who's it is though...

I'd vote for 5 if the maker took the photo, but as far as I can tell, it looks like 2 downloaded photographs blended together quickly and then text and a line added on top.

It's a nice edit though, and it looks natural. Remember - all you really do (or are supposed to do) on photoshop is editing - if you want to design, get illustrator.

I made no 1.

OmniDeath wrote:

i cant believe so many people are voting for one. no offense, but the mustang looks terribly deformed and it is unattractive overall. i think 8 isnt getting as much credit as it deserves...
It got 5 votes, thats all.. I dont get the need for commenting on it when there were 3-4 with 10+ at the moment..

so I didnt want to give up my sig here so I wrote dear mr Omni a PM to defend my sig (which I couldnt do here..):

PM wrote:

its meant to be deform, its meant to enhance the brute features of the original... people just like different styles, and clearly you dont like it.. thats fine by me, thats the point of this SOTW I believe, to see what people can do with a different style.. you should think a routined sigmaker like you would be open to things like this, but oh well, everyone has an oppinion and the right to share it..
Then he wrote

OmniDeath wrote:

im not complaining about votes being stolen or anything, i dont care about winning these things (id think people would realize that by now) i just dont think 1 is as good as some others that arent doing so hot, like 8. although, i got a nasty pm (most likely from the creator of 1) about how the mustang was supposed to look deformed

Nasty? wrote:

I dont see where I was offensive? please tell me where if you accuse me of writing a nasty PM..

So I quit,

1. I wasnt that pleased with my own entry, but I had to hurry up because all the spots were filled the other times I'd tried to enter..
2. I dont like being accused for entering a fun comp. where everyone can enter (noob or experienced).
3. I dont get why people have to be that way, just because of different styles, we cant all be masters at sigmaking you know..
4. Mostly a stylish sig wins (which I have no problem wih at all), so I wanted to try something different. so:
- I "deformed" the car to enhance some of the features of the car, and to make it "Cartoon'y"
- I highlighted some parts with a black brush
- I blue'ifyied the car a bit
- Chose a highway background, and mod'ed the colors to fit the subtle "cartoon" theme..

but thats not good enough, so be it.. But I dont like to be accused of things I didnt do..

so that was my first and last entry here..

call me a noob, call me a amature... but you dont have to mock me, I'm not retarded you know..

its the public thats doing the voting, so if it was so horrible, I dont get why its firmly placed in the middle of the bunch.. or maybe everyone in here is not as well educated in the art of sigs as you are.. /no offence intended..
if you can't handle criticism i don't know what to tell you bub. i wasn't mocking you, or insulting you. i was only saying what i thought about the sig, not its creator.

When is the voting over?
I don't think 5 was just an edit.

I think the person who made it added a few effects, but only a few to keep it simple.

Complex sigs aren't always the best.

You're right about complex sigs not necessarily being the best, and actually, complex sigs are usually the worst. But if you want something (anything size) simple then you need it spot on, because there's nothing else to look at when you go simple. That's why minimalism is so much harder than a lot of people think.

IMO, #5 went for simple but didn't pull it off. If the sig maker actually took the photo, then it would probably work. Adding a few effects to a photo sometimes looks cheesy which is also why I don't really like it. Someone opened PS and added a motion blur with a car which isn't exactly creative. I know I for one would instantly think of a motion blur when working with a car, but that's probably because 99% of people will do also.

Sorry to whoever made #5, but it's just my opinion and I hope it made sense.
