The I'mproved one:


And yeah, I know the text sucks... so does my jpg conversion

EDIT: I tried to blur the propeller correctly, but my motion blur util doesn't support perspective-corrected angular motion blur and it's hard to do manually...

EDIT2: Corrected a few minor mistakes...

I'll attach the .xcf file... for those who can open it in the first place
*grumble* stupid discri'minating board... won't let me upload .xcf's... :ranting:

'Stuka' aka 'sturzkampfflugzeug' aka 'sturzkampfbomber' IS the general name for all JU-87's, even though that the JU-87G series weren't technically dive bombers (they had recoiless anti-tank guns in place of the bomb cradles)...


But it's all

good work.. I would say to work on the text a little bit maybe experi'ment with some font colors and effects.. you would be surprised what a better font would do for that sig also work on making it smaller.. smaller sig + better font would make it very good

I chose to leave out the background cause I think I see what you're going for with it.. and I dont think I could ever do a bg like that so good work

nice job

Not a bad idea about that font... but the only good site with fonts that I know isn't in english nor german
And I don't want to make it any smaller (maybe except in terms of filesize... 25kb is a lot )

I chose to leave out the background cause I think I see what you're going for with it.. and I dont think I could ever do a bg like that so good work

The problem is, I didn't actually do the background I've 'liberated' it off of google I'magesearch, just applied some filters to it

Don't go technical on me I'm stupid.

Don't go technical on me I'm stupid.

What's so hard to understand in it? :blink:

[Hanneh]

I'm Hanneh. Everything its hard to understand, confusing and makes me feel stupid

[BlackHawk]

I I'mproved the sig somewhat... go back to the 1st post...

EDIT: argh, I just noticed some things are still wrong and I can't fix now... :ranting:
The color in the spaces between the flaps and wing trailing edge isn't right w\ respect to the bg... and it needs a bit more blending in a few spots...

EDIT2: Done...

EDIT3: Still wrong... argh

EDIT4: Hopefully it should be all done right now...

EDIT5: Grrr... my 'fixes' have messed up the clouds in the process fux0r it though...

Gawd, no need to be such a perfectionist BH, it looks really good. I like that it's original in the current ti'me of sigs mainly being character + blending + background + text + quote
You'd get on so well with my dad.. he's a wwII fanatic as well, our entire study is devoted to planes & guns & books about planes & war films usw.

Why leave something as *good* if it can be *better*?

I like that it's original in the current ti'me of sigs mainly being character + blending + background + text + quote

The text is sorta screwed... no idea why, but this color never gets converted properly to jpeg The blending is somewhat off as well if you look closely... instead of using a blend pattern I've done it manually :wallbash:

KiLl3r j0k3r you smart ass, I think you should have some more respect for this supermoderator! Your acting like a cocky little barstard!

No you fool just because I'm a smod doesn't mean that I have to know how to do everything right...

[Kimoflea]

Although he does.. which is rather scary O.O

[BlackHawk]

No I don't...

If I did, I wouldn't be here atm

[Kimoflea]

What would you be doing...?

[BlackHawk]

You don't want to know this one either...

[Kimoflea]

Oh, I'm nosey, I always want to know everything. But since you're not telling me, I'm going to assume that you've become a peace loving hippy, trying to change the world for the better by stopping war, and giving fluffy kittens to everyone

[Hanneh]

=o you use Gi'mP. I used to use that....I swore I was one of the only people in the world that used it.
