Koy Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 Stop putting text in your tags, it takes a lot away from them. Only very advanced gfx people can pull of text properly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Posted April 24, 2013 Author Share Posted April 24, 2013 (edited) Yeah I know I'm bad with text. I use it more so for watermarks. I've ran into issues in the past where people have stolen my work. Edited April 24, 2013 by Rare Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Posted April 24, 2013 Author Share Posted April 24, 2013 Well hey, we have to start somewhere. Right? If you're going to criticize my text, let me know what I should do to slowly get better. Or another way I could have done it. That kinda stuff helps me out a lot as in learning. Whenever I criticize someone's work I'll give them some pointers that can potentially help them improve.

I'll help you out man c: When you're doing text, you don't want it to be all up in your face, like you've been doing. you also don't want it to be too close to the main focal point. On this signature, it's Venom's head. You put the text near the focal point and doing that made us get distracted and not even look at Venom, instead.. We looked at the text. Of course you don't want your text to be invisible, and you don't want it to be too detailed. If you look at all of the popular taggers, their tags that have text on them. Their text is really really plain. But it still makes the piece look amazing, and that's because it is so plain. With text on a tag, Simplicity is key.
