Title: Silver's Banner thread.
Post by: Silver on April 04, 2011, 04:25:42 AM
Ok screw it. I'll make a banner thread. I have a little more experience in the computer graphics field than the other guys, but I take longer cause I have better things to do than this. Thats the trade off, if you don't like it, go to someone elses banner thread.

And by longer, I mean like, maximum two a week, if for some reason I feel like doing alot of this stuff.

To speed things up, I have gotten Frenchfry and Swuish to help out a bit.

Anyways: Here's a skeleton:

Name:
Background:
Foreground:
Other notes:

Optional (But it'll take longer):
Foreground colors:
Background colors:

I have the ability to deny the request if I don't want to make it. Also known as if you give me something to do with Bleach or Naruto. Exceptions are possible, again if I feel like it.

Completed work:

Jerk, I was gonna ask for Naruto. Anyway I'll switch it up.

Name: Matt A White color
Background: Nothing (Unless you think of something amazing.
Foreground: N, Lucario, Jolteon, Grovyle, Gengar, Bisharp, Rayquaza.(Artwork please)
Other notes: Back his face look Dark like on yours.
Foreground colors: White, Dark Red.
Background colors: Black

Much appreciated, I'll give you credit. It will also replace my current banner, so yeah, thanks again, and great job on these.

Oh, Look. Another banner thread for me to watch and occasionally submit nonsense to if someone I feel like pissing off makes a request.

I highly reccomend you choose fewer pokemon. Your signature is going to be very cluttered (I know because Im working on it now and its almost full after N and 2 pokes)

Thats what I have so far, I reccomend accepting this version, as its going to start to look worse if I add any more.
But if you so wish, I'll continue.

why do u use same booring background on every banner?

also the font u used for anonymous was really messy

The backgrounds aren't the same.

Yeah I know it is, it looks fine until the decals come in over the second half, and Im experimenting with different tools on these

Neither of the 2 that have been requested have been final, but its good to communicate with the person requesting the banner so that you don't finish and learn that they didnt want anything like that.

This one is a little closer to completion than the other 2.

idd they have, different color only.

They're done in the same style as eachother, but they were made new every time.

Haha Rex, did you Copy/Paste mine, except the Foreground and Name xD

I guess you can keep going, I'd prefer my whole team. But I was saying a white color, not Matt A, then a white color. You don't have to redo if you don't want to. I don't mind.
Title: Re: Silver's Banner thread.
Post by: Mr. Fox on April 04, 2011, 10:33:29 PM
yeah you and i have the same taste in banners, i just want different pokemon and a different trainer
Title: Re: Silver's Banner thread.
Post by: Silver on April 04, 2011, 10:34:15 PM
And this is why punctation is important. Because if you said Matt; a white color, there wouldn't be a problem right now.
The capital "A" is what really threw me off. it looks like an initial.
Title: Re: Silver's Banner thread.
Post by: Silver on April 04, 2011, 10:50:24 PM
Anyways, gengar ruined what I was trying to do by looking foreward instead of left like everyone else, so I can't even reverse the image. >:(

Could you make me a banner with the trainer from Hg/Ss
pokemon: Chandelure, Ferrothorn, Carracosta, Infernape, Weavile and Garchomp

Have it say Bing in some form of loud lettering (purple)
background: black.

Post by: Swiush on April 05, 2011, 11:19:21 PM
do you download the pokemons transparent or do you clip them out yourself?
Title: Re: Silver's Banner thread.
Post by: Silver on April 05, 2011, 11:22:05 PM
Both.
I try to find png's instead of doing it myself for speed purposes, since I don't feel like spending 10-30 minutes for each pokemon.

If you want to give your pictures a little bit more style, then here are sme tips that helped med alot :)

1. Brushes -

http://www.brusheezy.com/Brushes?f=&sort=popular

Here you can download different brushes for Photoshop. an example of use are the cracks in my sigg with mudkips. The cracks are simple black brushes. Theese brushes are fun to play around with and they can make your pictures look alot better.

2. Blending Options -

Effects.
Right click on of your layers and click the Blending options selection. Here you can find alot of different effects to apply to your layers. example glowing effects.

Colors.
If you have a picture, and you create a new layer on top of this picture, you can do alot with the colors. Create a new layer, right click it, blending options and select the blending mode "Soft light" Now go ahead use a normal brush to colorize your photo, this will give it a nice smooth look and you can customize your colors totally as you would like. you can use darker color t omake it darker and lighter color to make it brighet, whatever you'd like.

EDIT:

Halftone Patterns. This is a very cool effect, which i use alot. (havent used them in my pokemon siggs)
Create new layer, use a normal brush to put out some color on your layer, If you want it to be transparent, opacity at about 50% or sumthn, you can change this is the layer menu. You can also go ahead and roght click the layer, blending options and select the blending mode soft light. This wil give it a nice touch :)


Hope this helps you to become an even better artworker! :D
Good luck :)

Some of this I knew (glow effects, opacity settings cutsom colorization), some of it I did not (New brushes, halftomes). I appreciate your assistance, and tank you for the download link.

For Monzta:

I completely ignored everything you asked except for the fact that this is, indeed, a Flying Gibson V.
Maybe Silver will actually do what you wanted. Meh.

You gotta go with the Gibson Sg.  They just have so much crunch.

I would have to disagree.

(http://www.themusiczoo.com/images/8-04-10/Gibson_Custom_Shop_Les_Paul_Custom_Silverburst_CS002016_1.jpg)

One of my guitar friends has this SG:

(http://profile.ultimate-guitar.com/profile_mojo_data/6/0/4/5/604544/pics/_c289194_image_0.jpg)

Its not my style, i personally don't like the body.

Mr_Dark has a bloody nice guitar though, i forget what he had...

Post by: Monzta on April 25, 2011, 06:08:41 AM
I don't have a Flying V though, I have a Traben bass but I thought the Flying V woud suit the signature.

I have to say that the Sg fits my style of playing, for ska it can get this amazing crisp clean tone and for punk it's got this great crunchy sound.

I don't really like les pauls because of the placement of the pickup selector. (strange right?)  I always hit it with my arm and that just annoys me to no end.

Both Bing and I have already, as that bass tries too hard.

There's six of us, and we all have $1000+ guitars.
