It's a slightly green-tinted tan colour. Go ahead and use the eyedropper on the jersey of Wade that's in the background and tell me that isn't green.

It's not green. I desaturated the image and then set it behind a tan color.

by **Colin** on Tue Jan 10, 2006 11:58 am

Oh man...

Yes it does have some green, use the eyedropper like I said. It doesn't matter how you did somehting, all that matters is what you get.

by **Axel** on Tue Jan 10, 2006 12:05 pm

I end up with a brownish color, but it may be because I have the settings on my monitor adjusted to brightness...

yeah, it's a nice sig but once again the Wade with the ball just doesn't look right while it's blue.

It's more grey than green, but it's more green than tan.

I wont be able to make any more sigs until the weekend... I have exam week this week so it's taking up all my time

I'm currently working on an Iverson sig... it's almost done. I need help on something though...

I cut out this image using the pen tool for the first time

I made the stupid mistake of having a black background and now i need to know if there is a quick and easy way to get rid of the background without having to cut the pic out again. The background doesnt come off with the magic wand w/o leaving a ugly black stroke around the pic.

by **Colin** on Sun Jan 15, 2006 11:57 am

Use the magic wand at a tolerance of about 32 (I think that's default) and delete. That will leave a little fringe around the outside, so go to layers-->matting-->defringe and defringe at 1-2 pixels.

And the cut looks pretty good man.

Thanks, I've gotten hooked on using the pen tool... it's more work definetly but i like having control over it. Never going back to the lasso again.

by **Axel** on Sun Jan 15, 2006 12:16 pm

mk, here is what i have so far... I am done except for the text which i cannot decide where i should put it... or if i even need it at all. I'm going to put a border on it too. This is my first try at not making it monotone.... and graying out the player... lol

by **Colin** on Sun Jan 15, 2006 12:20 pm

Few too many pics of Iverson IMO.

And for the pics of him try checking out the player effects tutorial I made in teh stickied Tutorial thread. Rihght now they're very bland.

And stay away from putting a stroke on grunge fonts.

by **Axel** on Sun Jan 15, 2006 12:22 pm

yeah, i kind of thought that too, but i'm not very good at finding other things to fill in the pics... if I dont put pics of him in it, it usually ends up looking too brushed...

I actually have a burn effect on the pic of the far right.. i dont know if it's noticable or not though

Also, the middle pic is being used to cover up where i have different layers with contrasting colors. I would need something else to go there to cover where the layers would meet.

I wouldn't tarnish the pic by putting those losers in it :lol:

by **Avrah3** on Sun Jan 15, 2006 1:04 pm

losers

they aren't even losers not good enough :lol:

by **Axel** on Mon Jan 16, 2006 6:02 am

I couldn't figure out what to do with the text so i scrapped it. The first one I was going to try to make it look graphittied but I couldnt blend the text over the bricks in a way to make it look written on them.... so I just left the bricks there.

by **Cable** on Mon Jan 16, 2006 6:53 am

You need some kind of effect on the pic in the middle.

Second one, after I decided I didn't like the first one so much

Edit:

by **Axel** on Tue Feb 07, 2006 11:59 pm

Here's a Chris Paul sig I did last night... I couldn't log onto the forums to post it..

by **Axel** on Wed Feb 08, 2006 7:18 am

One more... this is sort of an experiment sig, it's small, but i can make it bigger... let me know if it's any good.

by **Jing** on Wed Feb 08, 2006 7:21 am
