Would anyone else be willing to contribute some of their more recent sigs to a new .psd pack? I'd be willing to throw in any of mine that people would like to see.

I like turtles.

I would also like to know.

Effort: 1.5/2 - It's just not enough for full marks. Look: 1.5/3 - Next week I suggest posting your sig in http://vhlsim.invisionzone.com/index.php?/forum/100-graphics-designs-writing/'>here first and ask for advice. I feel like you just don't know what there is to do. Basically the idea is to take different pictures (stocks) and place them on top of the render. Then you set them on different blend modes. Creativity: 1/1 - jersey change attempt Final: 4/6

Effort: 2/2 - lighting, stock work, text work etc, good job Look: 2.5/3 - honestly, it's just kinda boring. Nothing is bad but nothing stands out as great. renders like this don't often leave much room for creativity.Text is pretty cool. Creativity: 1/1 - very serene sort of style Total: 5.5/6

Effort: 2/2 - I guess, you'll need more next week though. Look: 2.25/3 - the effect around the render isn't bad, but it needs more blending. More stocks would definitely help this sig. Next is the text. It usually won't work too well when it isn't touching the render. Pull it in more. And for fonts, rule of thumb is only use one unless the second one is much smaller (like in your current sig). Creativity: 1/1 - yeah! Total: 5.25/6

Effort: 3/3 - yes sir Look: 2/2 - diagonal effect may be a bit too much on the text. Other than that, great work. Creativity: 1/1 - very original Final: 6/6

Effort: 2/2 - yep good amount of work done Look: 2.75/3 - I really like the idea here, but a few things are lacking. Text should never look like the top layer. I usually do text right after I put in my render, and then follow with stock work. This way it looks like it's part of the sig instead of slapped on. Also, try not to use the Layer Styles for shadows. If you need to give it some shadow, just brush behind it by hand, or make a clipping mask background from another part of the sig. Creativity: 1/1 - really cool stock work. Final: 6/6

Effort: 2/2 - yep Look: 2.25/3 - yep, as lobo said, it's rarely a good idea to lower the opacity of the render. Cool stock work around his arm. Not sure if you saw it, but I made a post here: http://vhlsim.invisionzone.com/index.php?/topic/2501-jacks-guide-to-making-not-shitty-sigs/ with a bunch of the techniques I use in sigs, hopefully it will give you some ideas. Creativity: 1/1 - hell yeah, keep up the originality! Final: 5/6

Effort: 2/2 - yep, especially with your photoshop hiatus Look: 2.5/3 - I still prefer your old stuff, but you're getting the hang of it again. Too much contrast overall, I don't know if that was a high pass or topaz but it's a little too much. Creativity: 1/1 - chyeah Final: 6/6

Effort: 2/2 - much better than last week Look: 2.75/3 - sherrif touched on the white stock/splatter that I also disliked. Very nice use of the duplication technique, great colouring. Creativity: 1/1 - hellz yeah Final: 6/6

Effort: 2/2 - for sure, great work here Look: 3/3 - text could have been a bit bolder in my opinion, but overall excellent sig Creativity: 1/1 - very unique colouring Final: 6/6

Helsinki looks like a tentacle and shoop da whoop is this: http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/shoop-da-whoop-i%E2%80%99m-a%E2%80%99-firin%E2%80%99-mah-lazer

other than the tentacle and the shoop da whoop these are sick

There's a bunch of other sigs that have zero replies. You shouldn't expect cnc if you don't give it.

Yeah I would definitely watch junior games, especially with Connor McDavid still in junior next year.

Gamecentre Live in Canada will now be controlled by Rogers as well. Only good news is no more sportsnet blackouts.

Hopefully they fire most of the SN staff and poach TSN. I can't bear Sportsnet. Only good thing coming out of this is no SN regional blackouts.

That is insane. I can't stand sportsnet other than their announcers.

guessing you meant 2.75/3 ?

By that I meant go Roughriders.

really nice text, nice bg. the smudging is kinda off, could've used some sharper smudging, more like an explosion to match the cracks.

Go Ti-Cats.
