Night Drive *updated*

Drive all night
Never gonna get me
Night by night
to get away from it all
Fight, fight, fight!
All you wanna do is hurt me
You wrecked our lives
So I'm going to have to drive all night...

My first photomanip in a while. I liked it, but I think the text could use some work, so I'm open to suggestions.

*original*

*updated version*

Any more suggestions would be appreciated.

Text is not bad, however I think you should have made the highway bigger. It seems kind of far off and distant, and I just think it should be closer.

It could have been closer, but I wanted the vanishing point in the middle of the sig :/

i like the look of it, but the text is pixely

text is not bad but in my opinion i think it is kinda bland and i think you should experiment and post for feedback

I know it's pixelated, but I dont know how to fix it. I tired adjusting the AA settings, but I think its just the fact that I made the font so small.

hence the reason for me making this topic... As for the blandness, I was tempted to add some brushing, but decided against it.

yeah i think that brushing might clash w/ the realism of the rest of the sig

I like it but I dunno about the text. Not that it's pixelated but because it stands out so much.
If you can, try make it have the same colours as the middle of the Sig.

that will make it really stand out i think what you mean is that it should reflect some other color from the sig

Not at full opacity.. then it would stick out too much but try make it have some colour at least.

This is awesome. I love this sig, but the Big white blob splattery thing in the corner, and the text kinda ruin it. The White in the corner draws all the attention away from the Highway and the rest of the sig.

The text is good, but if you can do it in Fireworks, try this:

Select only the word 'Night,' and make the letters farther apart. There's an option in Photoshop that lets you do this easily, but the might not be one in Fireworks. If there isn't just try putting a space between each of the letters in 'Night.' Right now, I think the word is a little too 'thin.'

yeah it does look a lil thin btw i love the new version i think it needs some sort of border because if ur gonna current it on a board like this it sgonna be too harsh and i donthink the admins ll change the skin kus ur sig looks bad against it you could try a drop shadow w/ 0 distance and just mess with the choke

Phosphorous · Post by **Phosphorous** » Fri Apr 21, 2006 4:41 pm

Ok, I spaced out the letters, Ill post it later.

btw there is a 1 pixel black border on it.

RaVNzCRoFT · Post by **RaVNzCRoFT** » Fri Apr 21, 2006 4:41 pm

It has a border...

halobuddha · Post by **halobuddha** » Fri Apr 21, 2006 4:43 pm

yeah but the thing is that the border is soo harsh on the skin and it blend soo well with the rest fo the sig that we cant really see it i knew you probably put some sort of border on it but i wasnt sure kuz i couldnt see

RaVNzCRoFT · Post by **RaVNzCRoFT** » Fri Apr 21, 2006 4:55 pm

The border's fine, and it's not harsh on the background at all. I don't think you should touch it, Phos.
