hen7713's TWC art
« on: June 18, 2010, 01:22:07 PM »
Hi! This will be my first time making a TWC art thread here and specifying on it, so if you see something wrong PLEASE point it out instead of just saying it's crap. That doesn't help me one bit now.

This is my attempt of the Sat LF that can be seen in here for about a sec:

That's pretty good, I would make the line a little less thick and add more spacing between the letters of the city names, but other than that it's very good for a first try.  :thumbsup:

I'd make the lines a bit less thick and make the end of the lines square, not round :thumbsup:

I removed the link to the Weather icons for security reasons.

I also made 2 animated icons which I attached to the post.

Well I made a sig series that rotates on refresh. Each image has a different thing about Summer.
The Summer rotation will be phased out after today though, however the summer rotation will be available here:
http://24.211.24.78:2965/Summer2010/


Please comment on this though since I'll be doing this for holidays / other seasons too. Anything that should be added? Removed? Changed? Good? Bad? Crappiest image ever?

Crappiest image ever. It's terribly bland.

What should be fixed?

Also I was experimenting and came up with this:

May I offer a recommendation of smoothing edges and alpha blending? your edges are incredibly jagged, which is the answer to your "improvements" question also.

Well I am using alpha blending. It may be a GIMP limitation though as to why it's doing that.

Nice effect on the sticker. If you can, try to anti-alias it for better quality. :yes:
