I'm sure this thread is fine - as long as people continue giving reasons for their ratings other than, "I don't like it."

Avatar - It looks like it would be cool... if I could make it out. It's pretty bloody tiny. But I like the fact that you added some lettering to it.

Sig - The pic is intensely squished - I hate seeing that effect... where images our warped out of propotion. The seemingly random colours for the words on there are also a little disturbing... there doesn't seem to be any particular colour scheme. I like the pic, the words are fine, but none of it seems to be drawn together into a cohesive unit.

I like the avatar. To me, it is just something that can be an avatar if you get what I mean. Like it was meant for an avatar. I don't know, I just think it really fits.

The sig is nice. I like the Matrix effet ( hoping it is) all blurred. The picture is good too. I like its placement and the effects done unto it I really like the (looks like it) glowing effect, gives him a sort of ghostly effect in my mind. The text is really cool too with that triangle in the middle, really nice. But my only "beef" is you could possibly have added another picture? To me it looks like there is a lot of space used up by the test could have been filled up with another image. But that is just me.

8/10

Thanks for the critique - very useful. Before I continue, I'd like to thank doukeshi03 again for making the Sig for me - he certainly did a masterful job. The Matrix effect, F.Y.I., is from Ghost in the Shell - that's also where the character is from - you know, the guy on both avatar and Sig? :)

I personally like the balance (HA!) of Aramaki's face with the name across the front... I don't like an overabundance of pics.

Anyway - whoever posts next - PLEASE review Zeta's Avatar and Sig ABOVE.

ABOVE.

Well Zeta, I'm not a huge fan of Eva, but thats beside the point. I really like your banner because of the crispness of the images you have within it, its very bold and strong, I like that. Also the text within it is wonderful with the etheral, glowing effect coming off it.

The Avatar too is really bold and clean, it also matches the banner which, odd as it may sound, I love; I really hate it when banners and avatars don't match ^_~

[COLOR=SlateGray]Eh? I've seen this thread on Marriland. You wouldn?t happen to be a member there, would you Burori? =p

Okay then, doukeshi03, I love your banner and avatar, the colours are calming for me and I like the way they all blend to make the picture really nice and cool looking.
The picture is also simple but effective, also I thought it was Genjo Sanzo from Saiyuki when I first saw it (big plus for me ^_^)

I like the white writing on the banner too, it suits the colours but stands out very well against it.
Now people, my stuff was made on paint so that's why it's nowhere near as good as the others, lol.[/COLOR]

No Crucifix that is an amazing banner i must say the simple inverting of the colours without a doubt makes it look alot cool. as for the avater it is simple and calming.

I would not know how to tell you to improve them both.

I like the banner/avi set, but the backround on the banner doesnt quite to it for me. The images, though alot of them, dont seem squished or crowded. 8/10

EDIT: My avatar was just made by messing around, so it obviously sucks, hence the '...dont... ... ask...' (I'm insane)

[FONT=Tahoma][quote]this is actually a really cute set you have. While it may be a little too simple for my taste, I'm sure that's what makes this pic really cute. [/quote]

well you gotta love simplicity ^^; i derno, it is something i whipped up really quickly.. i'll probably end up putting some artistic flare into it later in time but its a random cute set for now. ^_^;

and pawn, i like your sig, it reminds me of a show called "are you afraid of the dark" they used to play way back when on nickleodean, cute show though XD; but yeah its to my taste, like you said about your avatar, dont ask? i wont.[/FONT]

Ok, since Youta ranked mine, I'll just do his, and eh luu's.

Youta Moteuchi - I cant see your banner, I get a red x, But that avatar is pretty cool. Maybe throw some text in it? Avatar - 7 1/2

Eh Luu - I like your banner, very simple with a powerful message and a nice, solid theme color. Nice indeed. The only problem I can see with your avatar is it has your nice twice, but I just dont like repeating stuff. Overall: 8 1/2 to 9

Hmm, the images of your banner are good, though the edges of the red sephiroth need cleaning up a bit, or softening or something. The backgrounddoesn't quite worth either, though I like the font, it suits your name ^_^. The avatar is pretty neat, nice and simple and bold.

*looks up* I can easily say that those are some of the most creepy images I've ever seen. Not really a big fan of skulls and stuff...
They're pretty okay, except for the text. They sorta bled and blended into the pics too much. The sketchy effect on the banner is pretty nifty, though. ^^

mmm... Exploding green globs... It's one of those avas that you could just sit and watch for a while. Almost therapeutic. Or hypnotizing. Or maybe I'm just easily distracted by flashing images.

As for your sig... I'm not quite sure I understand it. I mean... it seems like two completely unrelated images, and then one corner just filled in with a pattern that doesn't particularly match either of those images, with text that doesn't match anything either. Was there some kind of message in this? Cause if so, it went completely over my head. But that mage-y guy's kinda cool looking, whoever he is.

[color=indigo][size=1][font=comic sans ms]While I don't know who the guy is on yours, RFG, it's very artfully done, particularly the banner. However, the colors on the banner seem too subdued to easily pick one picture from another, so I have to ding you a point for that.

Avatar: 8/10
Sig: 7/10

Conclusion: Nice.[/color][/font][/size]

[color=#707875][b]Avatar:[/b] I'm not sure if this character is from a particular series, but I quite like the avatar itself. Nice use of colour with a great facial expression. Is this a piece of fan art? It somehow has a fan art look to it, although it may easily be official. I don't know where it's from, in any case.

[b]Banner:[/b] Very funny banner. Hehe

I like the image itself, I only really have two concerns. One is that there is no border; normally I don't care much about borders, but somehow on this image, the lack of a border stands out to me.

Also, I'm not sure if this image was resized or something, but the aspect ratio seems a little off (as in, it looks a bit vertically squashed, or horizontally stretched). Adjusting the aspect ratio and adding a border would significantly improve it, in my view (which goes to show that you only need to do really minor stuff to make the most of your banner).

I don't really like numerical ratings with this type of stuff, so I'll avoid giving one.[/color]

[color=indigo][size=1][font=comic sans ms]The character is Faust VIII, from the Shaman King manga; it's official, and I have a similar avie for most of the S. King cast.

You know....I usually put a boarder on my banners; I just forgot to in this case. ^^; *runs to fix*[/color][/size][/font]

[font=Verdana][color=slategray]I suppose since DeathBug's sig was already rated, I get to rate James'? *Dances*[/color][/font]

[font=Verdana][color=slategray][b]Avatar: [/b]I really really love the idea for that. The colors are beautiful. The yellow border looks awesome inside of the black border. It really adds alot.[/color][/font]

[font=Verdana][color=slategray][b]Banner: [/b]I love the banner too. That was one of my favorite scenes from Volume 1. The animation itself is very clean. The transition looks great too. I like the little "J" in the corner too. It is very cool. Did you take the screenshots yourself? Regardless they look really nice.[/color][/font]
