Toss or use?

That is seriously cool, maybe turn down the glow on your name though, i think you should use it.

Very nice. Turn down the glow a bit, like strvs said.

Better?

very nice, but i dont think you should have any glow at all. make the font darker.

The only way i can get the font to be visible is by having a tad bit glow or making it pastelle coloured..

hmm, if you dont change the place of it?

Ive tried all four corner of the sig, and i think it would look best in that upper righthand corner aswell.. annoy:

That is kick ass silence.

You could just take off the outer glow and make the text white. It should show up then.

i dont know how it would look, but maybe, as azazel said,you can make it white, and then stroke it.

Use, looks great.

wonder where you got that idea rolleyes:

Heh, ya you helped getting that one out of me m8.
I already had the boy with the flag since about 5 weeks back, but i didnt know how to put him into an environment.. biggrin:

ssaawwweeeeeet.

Q: What color do I use to make text stand out on almost any sig?
A: WHITE.

i didnt even notice the name ... nice. might work without the name ?

Very true Magnum, but personal opinion here I think the focal point should remain the flag/boy in the pic (if that was the intention). If u make the text stand out (yes "white" would be the best choice) but why take away from the focus and draw attention elsewhere? The name blends well with the background but stands out just enough to be noticed. nice sig.

Cheers everyone. Im just gonna keep the name there, since it seems to be unnoticable for some people. biggrin:

The glow is very distracting. The other option is use white text set to overlay, and you get text similar to the one in my current sig, but without a secondary white layer like I have.

Better like that, or..?

much better

Yep, that's a TON better, dude. Good show.

Excellent.

yeah, looks much better,

It still distracts me from the sig itself, but if i force my eyes to wonder elsewhere, it look good dude!
