co-signed. Fun stuff.

Blah, limits. ...I guess I'll have to remember what it's like to be a pleb again...

I like how the black one just fell out of the jungle. Can't we get over stereotypes?

Only one has been proven to be mine, and I'm not telling which one it is. 13

K, so grab a crayon and color me a dork, but I had some time today. Sorry it's so early, but at least you know what you're up against Vin.

And good luck.



....

Also, I was running this video on loop while I made this sig:

It probably explains a lot.

Good one.


"I'm going to have to make love to the wife after watching that to reassure my heterosexuality" crylaugh

I got bored, and started playing around on photoshop and re-learning everything.

I tried to make it look all old, and warn out... Like an old photo.

Dude, you scare me sometimes

So sue me. It's a great song.



...but that's not even the worst part. I was thinking about hiding the word "pedophilia" in the sig as an Easter Egg, which would have just cast an entirely new light on the whole thing.

ermm

...

On a less disturbing note, I did also try to do a "feather fade" around the edges, so that when I saved as transparnecy it would fade into the natural background of the forum page.....no such luck. So I scrapped it altogether, because it was just a white-washed mess.

....

Anyway, good job Vinny. I like the old photo effect.

vinny, that really pwns.

+ Ghey factor crylaugh
+ Good and simple, makes sense because babies aren't smart. I was though.
+ Good use of size.

- Saved as GIF, but no transparency or animation? WTF?
- Doesn't look right.. ermmnone The background needs to be more tilted back and blurred to give it depth.

+ Background
+ Whatever it was you did to make it look aged.
+ Makes fun of Thorinn. haermm
+ Transparency

- That African baby would have fit better.
- You tried to mix serious with non-serious. WTF?



Winner: Vinny

While I liked Digi's less serious entry and use of file size, I just can't get over the fact that it doesn't look right. (Kinda like how Thorinn can't get over Justin Timberlake vin)

I tried cutting the black kid, didn't work well.

Good Duel Digi.

I'm a bit confused about your judging.... are you judging in reverse?
the whole tranparent thing threw me off ermm

nj vinny

that was one badass sig

Waitasec. It's a transparency. Hell, I even checked it in the KMC Black template to make sure.



.....

I'm fine with the outcome though. And nice duel Vinny.



My duel record is abysmal. If I had to guess I'd say I'm about 5-15. I'm always just good enough to lose nobly.

...same deal. I chose the 3 I did because cutting the other ones would've been harder. As it is, my cuts were kinda poopy, but I blended in the few places where I did a bad job (the yellow kid's head, the red one's arm, etc.).

And if you look closely, the red kid in my sig doesn't have a right pinky anymore.

I agree is transparant...


But I agree with the outcome.

Shit...

Didn't check that. I have KMC Light Blue and your post happened to be on a White background, so I just assumed. Sorry.

Still, Vinny wins. The transparency is choppy because it's a GIF (It might look good as a PNG? srug), and... seems sort of gimmicky. I remember this one time Bloigen had a sig duel, and all he pretty much did was paste the render into a sig size document and put his name on. I think.

I don't know why I said that.

But I am really sorry for missing that transparency.

Not a problem. I use light blue too, so I understand.

Anyway, I can't actually get .png's to be transparent in PS for some odd reason. It's kinda been annoying me, because it's probably something I'm doing wrong (I have teh transparency box checked, but meh).

Hopefully it isn't gimmicky...but once again, I'm cool with the duel's outcome.

Nice sig Vin.
