Default My Terrible Photoshop Work - 06-14-2004, 12:34 AM







Yes, as you can see I am terrible at graphics. My backrounds are cluttered and my font makes it look terrible...please give me any comments on how I can improve my low skill at photoshop.

I suck with graphics, but I kick a** with making text look cool.

Did you know that 94.5% of all statistics are made up on the spot.

Yeah most people aren't that good, but it's not exactly hard, and it's not a skill your 'born to do' anyone can learn. The artistic side I'm good at, but I just don't have the time, or the inclination to learn that much.

Time is somthing that if you have you dont need and if you dont you want. time just doesnt Come around to you.. you dont just find time you make it.
now that was right off my head and i hope it makes sence but i make time to waste on making senceless little pictures you cannot just sit down and be a great artist without having a imagination. i dont think pictures are hard or rare but they do take time and love for what your doing.:)

Alright thanks for all of the suggestions and everything...the reason I think I'm so bad is because on other forums everyone always insults my work and they all are better then me...Burner I'll try adding more stroke to my text, I see your avatar and it's really good, thanks for the suggestion. Oh and Allisurd I think your stuff is great, the backrounds you create are very nice.

Thanks again everyone!

isnt the max size 500 x 120 or something like that? i think that spit set it up so that it automatically deletes the sig if it is beyond the dimensions in either direction.

I decided to try out Photoshop, and i made myself a sig. i don't care it it's bad, it's my first creation so boo-ya. cann anyone tell me if any of them are any good, thnx.

*EDIT*

I decided to make it just so the sigs were attached as not to waste space in the thread. i also added one, the perspective one. i then added one to practice with text.
