I recently downloaded a package full of very nice stocks and implemented some techniques I learned.
I haven't made any sigs for some time now, so this should get me back in the mood.

interesting, although text is kinda odd. it is above the render, yet there's a shadow onto what should be space. it makes it look kinda tacky and kills any depth it has.

Unfortunately My brother closed Photoshop without me saving a PSD. I was hoping in making the text smaller and maybe adding a little Dragon Graphic with it. The shadow, I did plan to replace with either a lighter blue glow or basically would've left it as it was making the text blend better.

This was the final copy I saved before I lost it.

Well then remake it ;-;

Anyways text was my only problem.There should be more to it then it being a CM(and if its not a clip mask then oh well :-; ).

Jassie, I was really mad at him for about an hour. It's overlay with drop shadow. I tried clipping mask, it made it look really messed ;-;

Well it looked like a CM ;-;

Still looks cool though..And if you cant fix the text see if you can use the clone tool(if PS has one) to cover it up :3

Yeah it does have a clone tool. I plan to try and do something with it, if not, then oh well.

I downloaded a package on gfxvoid.com and the guy made a tut too. I didn't follow the tut though.

That looks great. The color scheme is very dreamy and I love the background. :> I only think it could use a bit more contrast, since some parts look a bit dull, especially in the bg.

Thanks. I was planning on adding some more night sky stocks to make the BG a bit better, but like i stated a few posts above, my bro closed PS and I didn't have time to save a PSD. ;-; But thanks again for the comment :D

The text and purple (pink?) sparkles kind of screw it up, as far as I'm concerned.

It was a purple stock of a nebula haha. And the text is bad, I know. :(

Never overdo stars/sparkles o:

And you can still add stuff to it..Just treat it like a stock.

Edit:And I do find it weird that you save as .PNG before .PSD :/

I wanted to undo some things and save a .PSD at an earlier stage. I always go, save a .PNG, undo a lot of things, and then make some more changes and then save another .PNG I usually save a .PSD at the very end. That's just how i do it.

and i don't think i overdid any star. Just gave it a 'spacy' look.
