Round 2 of the Sig. Tournament
DarkWizard vs. Lana
Size: 450x150 and 70k
Render: Soon to go up
Due Date: 72 Hours from now, so you basically have till Friday night to hand it in.
Criteria: I want an effect of a car coming at you from the sig. Use motion blur, transparencies...whatever you want. Remember this is Round 2, don't expect me to go easy on you. Make the sig look good.
Also remember to make your sig look the best, don't make a nice sig then kill all the colors and quality because it doesn't fit the 70k limit. Just start a new one and make it look ok. I'd rather take a crappy sig with good quality then a nice sig with chopiness and crappy quality.
Good Luck!

...and I was hoping to work with a car sometime myself. Ah well, I'm sure I'll think of enough good ideas for whatever I get.
Tomorrow's a good day...I actually have some time (for a change). Hopefully my match is up by then. In the meantime, good luck guys. The winner gets to lose to me next round...Bwahaha. Now, I just have to assassinate Baka, and I'm set.

Nice entry indeed, Fits the criteria, but it's time to disect it.
Blue Color Scheme..... 3/4 Points.
Text, too much/too clustered and just doesn't fit..... 1/4 Points
Backround is eh....not too nice but it fits. 3/4 Points
Again, the motion blur is eh.... doesn't give the full effect of what I want, and the blur really shouldn't have been over the whole car. I would of prefered the back....
2/4 Points
Final Score: 9/16
Lana or shall I say, Alana? You ripper!

Good job Lana, time to disect
Colors are very nice 4/4
Backround is fine, but I would of went with something more abstract-y... 3/4
Text wasn't somthing I liked too much. but It fit in the overall blending. The name you put on the license plate was a nice little bonus thing there though. 4/4
You fit the criteria well, the motion blur fit good. 3/4
Final Score: 14/16
Winner: Lana, congrats your going to our semi-finals.
Darkwizard you did an excellent job too, again this isn't based on fairness with a Guy using GIMP and a 6 year Photoshop veteran going at it
Good job both of you

Nice duel guys. DW's is hilarious and cool, but I agree with the judging...very close though.
And, if memory serves, Barker's our judge for the semis. We'll be needing one for the 8-way free-for-all, and then at least 1 for the finals (I'm thinking about doing 3 judges for that one). I'll be one of the judges for the finals unless I make it there (highly unlikely), but we'll need at least 1 more...maybe two (the third vote might be a poll).

You mean a poll? Problem is, with 8 people in it and not a ton of members browsing this forum, the winner might not have many votes....and keeping participants from voting in it (even if we did the honor system) would be tricky. I'd like to do a poll for the finals though. It could be fun, and would increase interest.

^^ Right. This is the first. Probably a decent gauge would be every 3-5 months (give or take). That way, they're spaced out enough so they don't get repetitive, and long enough for the most recent winner to "reign" over the sig-making world for a while.
Would't Six be better?
Two a year, same start time every year, for all eternity?

Nothing's really set in stone....and I won't be doing any more after this. So yeah, 6 is as good as any interval.

And I plan to do traditional signature contests (like has been done before) as well.
I just figured I'd get the ball rolling with tourneys since I had some experience running them in the comics section. I'm sure there's others who will be willing to spear-head more. So I guess saying "I'm not doing any more" is a bit harsh, but I'm not planning on needing to...
And the traditional contests are cool too. I look forward to entering my first of those.
