![]() ![]() Ok, The first isn't complete yet. Right now I'm struggling on deciding where to go with it. I think I might add a grain effect to simulate the particle energy Answerer gives off. As for the second, I found that emblem online and figured I'd advertise the greatest Company/Stock AC in existance. This post has been edited by Hustler One: Nov 18 2009, 04:21 PM |

The text on the banners is blurred and somewhat illegible, and the main text clashes with the background, making it hard to read.
Overall i'd give it a 6, but since it's about Armoured Core i'll give it a 4. -------------------- |

![]() I cooked this up in tech class (cause that's the only time I have access to photoshop). I wanted to do some more tweaking on it but I'm leaving to get surgery tomorrow, so I didn't have much time. I'm making another one using Old King, but I still haven't finished it. So, as usual, recommend me some ideas, and tell me what's wrong with it. I don't like the font color. But Red is one of the main colors on thermidor's AC, and It was the only one I found that was readable with the background. Also, see if you can guess what background that is... EDIT: Wow... I just realized I mispelled Maxmillian 0/10. Fucking revolting misuse of Fallout 3 art. -------------------- Massacre, you make me look like a rational, moral, kind person. Massacre - What you've just posted is sick and disturbing... When Massacre is around, everything is violated... Whether it likes it or not. Whenever I think of "human resources" Massacre immediately springs to mind. |

Overall i'd give it a 6, but since it's about Armoured Core i'll give it a 4. Yeah I thought that to, but I couldnt find the right text color. And I wanted the background because it has an apocalyptic setting, and is dark and gloomy looking like most of the settings in ACFA. Now that I don't have any site blocked I think I might look for a few backgrounds and then bring em to school and finish it. |

put a white glow or something behind the text... it hurts my eyes trying to read it...
P.S. you say AC has apocalyptic environments so, why not use one of those backgrounds? don't put an armored core unit in the capital wasteland, it'll get destroyed by sentrybots and super mutant overlords... actually, put in the capital wasteland, i want to see it get destroyed... -------------------- ![]() Oh, good one. The "you're on the internet so you must have no life" insult isn't moronic or unoriginal at all. You must, without a doubt, be a very important member of society, not at all a waste of the already barely valuable gift of life. As is the case for everyone who takes issue with people who make them sad on the internet, you are one of two kinds of people: You are exactly what you claim I am, and that is a lonely, pathetic basement dweller. You life is spent eating eight pounds of junk food per day, masturbating to anything you find online that's even remotely feminine, and wishing you had good looks and social skills. You continue to live with your mother until she dies of a combination of lung cancer and liver failure brought on by the chain-smoking and heavy drinking she used to cope with what a failure you are. Your mother mercifully dead and free of the living embodiment of failure she regretfully thrust from her loins, the bills start to pile up and you, unemployed and unable to pay these bills (of course), lose the house and everything in it. Somehow even more of a failure than you already were, you wander from place to place eating out of dumpsters and sleeping in your own filth until you finally die of AIDS, which you contracted from a diseased whore you scrounged up enough money to pay for, so you could finally lose your virginity while at the same time pretending that your mother was back in your life. Or: You are the type who was an athlete in high school, who was genetically doomed to be an idiot but managed to finish school and even get a college scholarship because you were so good at a worthless children's game. You went off to college with a suitcase full of polo shirts and condoms, the polo shirts, because you're a douche, and the condoms to prevent you from impregnating the dim-witted young college girls whom you could never touch without the aid of Rohypnol, a drug you refer to as "roofies" because you can neither spell or pronounce Rohypnol. You scrape by with borderline D's for the next four years, and leave the campus to go out into the real world where your realize you're not intelligent or talented enough to do anything of value with your life. Misery and minimum wage ensues for thirty years, then you blow your brains out, and your corpse, alone and forgotten, is not discovered until the smell of rotting flesh seeps under your door and your bodily fluids finally soak through the floor of your studio apartment and into the room below you. Your body is cremated, the ashes scraped into a garbage bin because there was no one in your life who valued you enough to pay for a casket, funeral, or burial plot. You're undoubtedly one of the two, otherwise you would have better things to do than complain about the theme of a forum that doesn't care about anything you have to say. |

Number of downloads: 7Mine's slightly better, IMO. Nah seriously though, the second is better. Mostly because this time around there isn't some robot thing standing in the remains of D.C... don't put an armored core unit in the capital wasteland, it'll get destroyed by sentrybots and super mutant overlords... |

Still mediocre, it just looks like you've plopped the image of the BattleMech (HAH!) on top of that background, and you have.

The sig needs more work. Stop the colours clashing maybe?

The letters in the first one are too slim. Makes it hard to read.

The second one is definitely better, but it still looks terrible with the blurry background and sharp foreground image contrasting. GLC's one had more going for it if i'm honest.

Ok, lets forget the first one because it sucks.
As for the second one, I see what you saying, but the foreground didn't look all that sharp when I viewed it. I think i was just zoomed in to much. And secondly, I'm still new at photoshop atm, so I wasn't really aiming for anything professional quality, In fact I wasn't aiming at quality at all, I was trying to make a sig that represents ORCA and what it stands for. I'll try to make the images clash better when I get the chance, any tips on how to do it properly? |

It would be good if you found a background image that wasn't as blurry and oversized as the current one. Also if you're using magic wand to cut out an image you'll tend to get a white line around it, it usually needs to be cleaned up by hand with an eraser set to something like 75% opacity and 75% hardness, i'm no photoshop expert myself, I only use JASC PSP8.

Actually, I did do that by hand. I could just feather it. As for the background, good ones are hard to come by. That background was honestly a last resort. All the other ones I have either are covered by the AC, or have an AC already in it. I'll have a look in my Armored Core folder and see if I can't find anything better. And I'm using Elements 5. I think I should start using Corel Photo-draw. I'm liking it a lot better since I started doing it. |

Every month I check every thrift and game store this half of the shwa to try and find new AC games. I checked out 6 today. And surprisingly nothing |
