Try saving the image as jpg. there shouldn't be that much quality loss, and the size will reduce considerably.

@craselios; wasn't here on time to see the 1st, but that new one doesn't look bad.
Remember this is just the opinion of a ''newbie'' and also a person who think it doesn't need to be so special

+ Staff. I think the poll should be updated.
there is quite a lot of members who I can't even remember and some I haven't see for ages.
mainly I mean: failboat, Drew, jamesjoyce and Technoseal

Ctrl + Alt + Shift + E

Creates a new single layer of all visible layers. Turn off all other layers to avoid possible problems then...

Edit > Adjustments > Posterize

Drop it down to about 50-60ish colours. The colours will start to change if you go too far down so just watch as you scale down for any changes and then go back up a bit.

Save as PNG and check filesize. It useless chops it down enough.

* Enzedder shrugs.

I will reset it beginning of July when people don't have exams and have time to make/post some things. As it stands people aren't posting very many new sets etc but just commenting on the few that are so.

New set, nice and simple

Ava:

ava(first version)

Sig 1

Thin Border

Sig 2

Thick Border.

What say you guys? Good? No Good? Should I change it to this one?

TiYlER · « **Reply #4606 on:** June 17, 2011, 02:18:34 AM »

^eh, I personally think there should be a little variation between the ava and sig. They look too similar. But other than that, very nice.

froody1911 · « **Reply #4607 on:** June 17, 2011, 02:28:42 AM »

^^ Yeah, needs variation. Maybe add more effects to the sig. Also, go with the thin border sig.

Mistgun_Zero · « **Reply #4608 on:** June 17, 2011, 02:50:53 AM »

This was the best I could come with for now.

.

v2?

I think I meant representing (instead of feat.) but it becomes too long (unless i get a better word). Also is there a way to edit the already written text in paint.net.

Can't figure out which is better, Zero or 00

feat. means something else entirely. It would be better to just not write anything before your name.

Sadly, no

I understood that, so i was troubled, what about the v2, I used "reprsnt." or is it better to leave it out.

And also which is good Mistgun Zero or Mistgun 00

Kyrdua · « **Reply #4612 on:** June 17, 2011, 04:00:50 AM »

MG/00 or any variation ( MG;00 | MstG/Zer0 )

EDIT: also, techno font.

As long as I like it or it's cachy I will take it, meanwhile I want to use this font for this set. It brings out the calm and elegance. I will try with other fonts though.

froody1911 · « **Reply #4614 on:** June 17, 2011, 04:13:39 AM »

rprsnt is better.
Though, I like the text better with the lighter color. The text in the top left should be kept small as it was in v1.
Take Kyrdua's suggestion on writing your name. "Mistgun 00" was great.

Mistgun_Zero · « **Reply #4615 on:** June 17, 2011, 04:40:05 AM »

Final version, perhaps?

Meomix · « **Reply #4616 on:** June 17, 2011, 04:41:58 AM »

Hmmm try making the text transparent.

froody1911 · « **Reply #4617 on:** June 17, 2011, 04:44:04 AM »

^ Yup, it's too dark, doesn't fit in with the feel of the rest of the sig.

Very nice. Don't add anything. The texts you added were ... not good in form of presentation. If you don't understand how to use Blend Mode and Blending Options for your layers (including texts), refrain from doing so until you know how to use it.

Just slap it on your ava/sig and you should be good. If you do use the one with the text -facepalms- At least get a better understanding of Blend Mode and make it look better, not ... plain and ugly.

^^^ If you are going to use text it is going to have to be something akin to crystal glass.
Example:
