Ellerby Posted November 15, 2008 Share Posted November 15, 2008 [FONT="Tahoma"][COLOR="DimGray"]I was wondering if anyone could make me a banner and/or avatar of the game "Mirror's Edge." I'd like the avatar to feature the protagonist, Faith and the banner can have anything from the game that you feel fits the avatar. [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mirror%27s_Edge]Wikipedia[/url] has some excellent screen caps in the article as well as some info about the game if that would help you at all. Otherwise just googling Mirror's Edge will bring up some good pictures. If you want to add text to the banner then I'd like it to say "Running. It's what I do." Thanks in advanced![/COLOR][/FONT] [b]EDIT:[/b] [url=http://img360.imageshack.us/img360/1725/mirrorsedgetw2.jpg][COLOR="DimGray"]Here[/COLOR][/url] is a really good picture for the banner.

Nessaja Posted November 15, 2008 Share Posted November 15, 2008 I'll try to work on some avatars for you at least. Since it's nice to see another Mirror's Edge fan on the boards. :animesmil (Also I was going to make some for myself anyways.) I think I messed up on the border on this one. If so, I'll try to fix it tomorrow and post it with some other avatars. (I hope you don't mind red. I thought of using it for most of the avatars, since it ties into the game.)

Kre Posted November 15, 2008 Share Posted November 15, 2008 I'll try and work on the banner. Can't promise it'll be too good, I'm out of practice, but uh...I'll get it done soon. [b]EDIT:[/b] [IMG]http://i31.photobucket.com/albums/c377/Rurouni922/LrbMirrorsEdge.png[/IMG] Not my best...I was going for something abstract, but I havn't made a sig in awhile, and I think it shows, lol. But, if you don't like that, I can give it another go if ya want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nessaja Posted November 15, 2008 Share Posted November 15, 2008 Here is another avatar. I don't know exactly what you want as far as the avatar though. Do you want anything specific? Not anything great, but I'll keep trying. [IMG]http://i37.tinypic.com/2yjovhj.jpg[/IMG] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Blonde Posted November 15, 2008 Share Posted November 15, 2008 I have a couple I've worked up if you're interested: [URL=http://img139.imageshack.us/my.php?image=jumpcw8.jpg][IMG]http://img139.imageshack.us/img139/8046/jumpcw8.jpg[/IMG][/URL] [URL=http://img139.imageshack.us/my.php?image=headgb8.jpg][IMG]http://img139.imageshack.us/img139/7317/headgb8.jpg[/IMG][/URL] [URL=http://img139.imageshack.us/my.php?image=eyezo4.jpg][IMG]http://img139.imageshack.us/img139/3889/eyezo4.jpg[/IMG][/URL] Enjoy.

Korey Posted November 16, 2008 Share Posted November 16, 2008 [FONT="Franklin Gothic Medium"]Kataki, your images are a tad bit fuzzy, what settings are you using for your images? I normally use 300 DPI and don't get images that are under 700 pixels in height and width. Here's something I cooked up....hope that works.

Mr. Blonde Posted November 16, 2008 Share Posted November 16, 2008 Fuzzy? Hmm... Well if you're referring to the second image it may appear fuzzy because of a gradual transparency wipe I applied to it, but otherwise I don't see what you're referring to.

Boo Posted November 16, 2008 Share Posted November 16, 2008 [size=1]I think it's because of the JPEG colour compression. You may want to save files as .PNGs to avoid any of such "fuzziness" (because, frankly, it is there).[/size] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Korey Posted November 16, 2008 Share Posted November 16, 2008 [FONT="Franklin Gothic Medium"]Well, the transparency is a cool idea, but I would have taken the image on one side or the other and made it sharper than the rest of the image. Having it all in the transparency makes it fuzzy. Also, your cropped image of the eyes just resolves kinda fuzzy for me. What format did you save the images in?[/FONT] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Blonde Posted November 16, 2008 Share Posted November 16, 2008 [quote name='Boo'][size=1]I think it's because of the JPEG colour compression. You may want to save files as .PNGs to avoid any of such "fuzziness" (because, frankly, it is there).[/size][/QUOTE] When I compress the file for internet use it switches from png to jpeg I agree the eyes have come out fuzzy, but looking back I realize that was the original image itself. I don't think the image looks bad though. I actually had a hard time finding images that were crisp. A majority of them were unuseable. [URL=http://img525.imageshack.us/my.php?image=runningrt9.jpg][IMG]http://img525.imageshack.us/img525/6808/runningrt9.jpg[/IMG][/URL] I really used quite a few effects on this one.

Korey Posted November 16, 2008 Share Posted November 16, 2008 [quote name=' Katakidoushi']I actually had a hard time finding images that were crisp.[/quote] [FONT="Franklin Gothic Medium"] Really? All I did was google mine and go for images that were larger (wallpaper size) and used those. In my opinion, every image is useable, even as elements in the img. Just with imaging like that, you have to save it in a different format for large images like that, otherwise they come out fuzzy and grainy....as JPEGs aren't too good for that kind of imaging... but I digress.

Mr. Blonde Posted November 16, 2008 Share Posted November 16, 2008 Well the reason I did compress them was because I know there is a kb limit for sigs and avatars and as you know these files are quite large. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ellerby Posted November 18, 2008 Author Share Posted November 18, 2008 [FONT="Tahoma"][COLOR="DimGray"]Wow, so many responses! :animesmil I've decided to go with the set [B]Korey[/B] has provided. [B]Rurouni922[/B], I like what you did but it seems very cluttered. If you want to give it another go then I'd [I]love[/I] to see what you can do. Thanks to everyone else for giving me such a huge selection to choose from! Now, Korey, if you don't mind before I use your banner I'd like to request a few changes. First I'd like it to be a lot smaller width and height-wise. I'm really not a fan of huge banners for some reason. Second, I really like the picture you've chosen to use but I don't feel it represents Mirror's Edge well as when I played it I rarely every punched a guy. I think [url=http://img360.imageshack.us/img360/1725/mirrorsedgetw2.jpg]this[/url] picture is perfect and if you don't mind I'd like you to use that. Sorry I'm being so nit picky here but that's what you get for making a sig for someone who regularly makes their own, haha. Lastly I don't really want my name on the banner. If you want to put text on then use the quote or just put "Mirror's Edge" but otherwise don't bother. Thanks again! Everyone[I]!![/I][/COLOR][/FONT] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nessaja Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 Well, banners aren't my thing but I hope one of these are more the size that you are looking for, Lrb. [B]EDIT: Oops. Thanks for telling me, Korey.[/B] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
