I also know a some designers here, hotsauce and j*roc, misfit, maybe they can vouch for me well, I guess i'll bombard you with my sigs now, feel free to ask for more.

which has a bunch of sigs i've made, and also other things like splashes, banners, wallpapers, etc. I uploaded all of the stuff I could dig up on this comp NOTE: some stuff on there could be really old, i'm sure you'll be able to tell which ones are old/new :P

well that's interesting

[Contra]

uhh, okay. first thing is it's from a tutorial. not really a rip, it's just as bad as using a brush from a set (which happens all the time). 2nd, it's a portion of the sig, without the two lights, I think it would still look fine, but i prefer it the way it is now because it looks better and I don't think it's wrong to keep it there. And don't tell me that I can't brush (you haven't yet but I can see it coming), just check out some stuff in my portfolio and I have a lot of brushing from scratch. I'm sorry if i'm coming off harsh, but it sounds like you're implying the whole damn sig a rip, and it took no skill to make the sig.

patch:
I've began to do minor websites in photoshop/imageready with slicing, I know basics of html and how to code a document that's sliced.

dude thats just an overlay of the tutorial image .. its the exact same thing ..

but w/e and im sure as hell not telling you that you cant brush

[Contra]

yes, I know it's a tutorial image. That's the thing though, it's from a TUTORIAL. I know it's supposed to be an example and emulated by the tutorial reader, but who knows. Maybe I was lazy. If Excelsium was really worried about people ripping that image, even if it was just to be a small part of a piece, there wouldn't be a picture-example in the tutorial, or there would be a watermark covering most of it. Like I said, it's a portion of it, the render is the main part which takes up a majority of the sig. I don't think it's that big of a deal but I don't want to be looked at as some noob ripper. Anyway, I don't want to argue, I will be peaceful now :| Hope you understand what I mean.
