The one and only signature creation thread

Oh god, now its impossible to tell which is nicest - what do you think?

Are you doing the sigs the maximum size allowed? Is there any way of showing all of the man in the last one, and a bit of the carriage, too?

platypus · 21 Apr 2008 at 15:52

The sigs are all under the 20kb limit, and meet size requirements.

The middle one (black and white, G W) is my personal favourite of those lot.

I liked the idea of merging a black & white picture into the colour one, but I haven't quite got it 'right' yet.

Middle one wins for me...

I think it is hard to tell without the logo, as some may be better suited than others.

Can you just putt he red 2mm logo on each of them somewhere where your artisitc creativity tells you?

platypus · 21 Apr 2008 at 16:19

Had forgotten about the logo sorry.

Doran · 21 Apr 2008 at 16:25

I think the problem with these photos is that its hard for the logo to fit somewhere.. argh!

mp3kla - thats really nice. But I think I will go for one of the 'models'.

I just don't know if that logo looks a bit weird. Has anyone got any clever ideas where to place it/how to present it? I am not sure we have it right yet,.

Kristoph · 21 Apr 2008 at 16:38

In one of platypus's last two sigs, the logo could be skewed so to look like it was painted on the wall of that shed?

I would like a calvin and hobbes wagon themed sig if someone is able to spare the time Thanks

Doran · 21 Apr 2008 at 16:46

Perhaps try one that is less of a photo and more abstract:

What about this one, using the track and the men?

or this, focusing on the just the wheels and rails

Just to give you a bit of info: 2mm modelling is tiny railway modelling, really fidly, but its means you can have big layouts in small spaces. Therefore this kind of idea might be conveyed well by the kind of photos above that show the intricacy of it?

Could do aye, it will have to wait until I get home though now

Some others:

This one is actually a Class 04!

Perhaps this link below could be cropped and reduced just so it features the train?

File size is too big, going out in a minute though, i'll sort it out later.

Doran · 21 Apr 2008 at 17:09

Another alternative is to just have the logo and the writing:

Except I think it would be better if the colours were inverted. That is, the backgrond black, the letters white but the logo still red....

Wow, that one might be winning so far, looks good!

I think sticking the red logo on the far left side might look ok, too....

How about on the train?

Nice n' subtle

Not bad, lower the opacity by 10-15% though
