Posted 02 August 2012 - 09:54 AM

I have made myself a Signature (just using paint, nothing fancy) but I do not know how to upload it. Can I have some help please?
Or if someone is willing to make me a better one that would be cool too.
My idea is:
  • The BT Australian flag (eg: http://www.sarna.net...tralia-flag.png)
  • The Lyran Alliance Military Insignia Hauptmann (eg:http://imageshack.us/f/525/2forl.jpg/)
  • Discreet text line: Location X: -304.07 Y: 291.54 (Lyran Alliance - Australia)
  • Prominent text line: We even let our militia log 'Mech time. Imagine what we let the real MechWarriors do..
  • Also wanted an Atlas' "Deaths-Head" in background (just mainly the eyes but with enough surrounding so people know it's from an Atlas).
Eagerly awaiting feed back :D


~EDIT: Maybe Hauptmann is a little out of my league. Cadet might be more my style(e.g http://www.sarna.net.../Cadet-LAAF.png.)
Also if what I have listed is too ambitious then anything to do with Australia will do me :P ~

You'll have to tell me how to do that Dethlore - I'm certainly interested in learning!!

@ tote - the problem with camo schemes is that a mech is a 3d object so I don't think you can simply drop a camo pattern onto it without it looking rather odd. If I get time later on I'll see if there's a method for doing do but again I have to say I'm RUBBISH at making sigs.


If you have somethign like photo shop,, I have an anwser for ya, Take pannles of a repeatign pattern not sure what the function was called since i only had photo paint 8 back in 02-05 but i could make the imaged with a scale when i'd stretch them to fit at thir corners But yeah,, I can totly get that

Also in a surprise of checkign out the page before that acutlay looks pretty boss, If i'm allowed i think i can do the couchups that i think are nessicary, But yeah,, Thats boss enough. Thank you my good man. Thank you

sorry doctorjest i have only ever animated with image ready, got my copy with cs2 though so i am surprised you don't have it. to do laser fire just do a thin white line from the lens and add outer glow, add a bit more glow then a bit less and repeat a few times. here is one i knocked up to show you and the psd file if you want to look at the layers.

Hello, I'm new and was wondering if I could partake in the signature madness? What I'm going for might be a little over the top, but who knows! The only part of my name that I'd like in the signature is Genghis Khan, preferably in a dark blood red font (with a single tear drop of blood on the bottom right hand side of the n).

I was wondering if it were possible to incorporate this photo into the background...

http://i431.photobuc...a/wallpaper.jpg

And use the Daishi from...

http://www.mechlivin...erelease-02.jpg

If you could get red lasers shooting out of it in some direction, that'd be nice too.

Thank you very, very much. I appreciate your work!

was wondering if I could reqest a sig. Including my callsign (Soupstyle), a mechbay background (similar to BaneRellik's with the atlas), a mech on the left side (where banerellik has his logo) maybe a highlander or something similar, and under my callsign on the right (smaller font) either "FEAR IS THE MIND-KILLER" or something like: Get your spoon out, it's time to eat hot plasma death. or if you can thing of something more witty that ties in soup and mechs. oh, non-animated please. Cheers.

Would it help if I supplied the background or any other images you need? If anyone is working on it and needs any help, PM me and I will help to the best extent of my abilities.


Anyone willing to work on this or willing to show me how to start? I don't have photoshop or anything and am a complete newb in this.

Appreciated.

I think I'm going to knock it on the head - I know when to quit. I spent AGES re-painting that Jenner, adding the extra glows and stuff too....... :P

@Tote - I can mail you the PSD if you like? PM Me bro.

Last attempt and it's my sig this time. Only lasers added.

What's with everyone and animated sigs?

Thanks for mine at any rate.
I admit, it seems a bit red, though.

Would love a Clan Snow Raven sig of like Aerospace Fighters and the Raven logo. I haven't settled on an active unit for MWO yet, so maybe in lieu of that like a Dropship, and a Mercenary Outreach type station with a Centurion.

I am sure people will agree yours is better!
(I am a little picky and not 100% of what I had pictured in my brain space, but still is WAY better than I can do so again: Thank you for the time you took to do this for me :blink: )

Alright so I have a better idea of what i'm looking for now. I want this image http://thetemplars.t...tary%20back.jpg Made much smaller and set up on the Snow Raven logo. Then some white rolling clouds with like a golden background and on the right hand side a Centurion of some sort. "Stand tall and shake the heaven's." Verdic Mckenna - Templars

I have one small request, otherwise it's perfect! Is there a way to make it maybe 50% larger so that Death's teeth are showing, and the Daishi's arms are showing? The Daishi seems a bit... distorted? And could you make the blood drop about 25-50% smaller.

Sorry if I sound ungrateful :|.

Freaking wonderful otherwise!

Well the problem we have is that 80 pixels is the maximum height to in order for Death to show his gnashers I'd have to shrink his head down.

Daishi again needed DRASTICALLY re-sizing to fit but I can make it even smaller if you like as that is the only way to get all the detail into the limited space available. Let me poke it this evening ;)
