Well, they are very good.
I liked one you made to LV.

Stock + text = fad Unless you're blue_tetris
Chase: Fixed.

I must say, blue_tetris, you've become my favorite imager on Metanet.

How come that LV used that sig after I mentioned it?

That last one is simply amazing.
Can I request a sig blue_tetris? Whatever you wish.

Dave is making sigs?
Last one is brilliant though.

...these are all tacky and hideous, except for the Slappy one, which is passable.
Come on, it *is* a fad (WHATEVER CHASE).

incluye, verbal warning. No flaming or trying to provoke something.

Duly noted. I was trying to counteract all the fawning adoration Dave was receiving—which, in my opinion, was happening not because the images were good but because of the maker's status. I understand if I went overboard, though.

Ah I see. You were simply trying to correct Tunco.
Carry on, blue_tetris.

I know. :/
I don't consider it an image unless something was actually done besides pasting a stock and adding text, but that's me. I know most of you guys aren't the same way.

Hideous? I think the word you're looking for is clever. They're not the kind of signatures you kids would enjoy, certainly, but that's because I couldn't fit enough Yugi Ohs and pokey-mans into them.
Anyhow, incluye, I think people genuinely enjoy some of the things that I do without trying to patronize to me. Maybe someday you'll understand that I'm not the overwhelmingly likeable guy with no talent you have me pegged to be.
Also, these aren't stock images plus text. They're heavily modified from the original to give a quicky or interesting effect--lighting added, clarity provided to areas that were hard to view, Slappy's image pasted swiftly into non-Slappy environments. Stuff normal people care about. Additionally, the selection process for the images to be used as the basis is quite rigorous and, as such, I pick better images than everyone else would. Funnier images, that. Some of the recent ones are just crops from the original Rugrats pilot, with no alterations, because I found them and wanted to share them with my online friends.
You're all the worst kind of people. If you want signatures, just ask, though. I'm getting more into the imaging thing as of late.

No, no, you're not nearly as overhyped as, say, Twilight. I acknowledge that your role here is basically to hold up the forums with one hand and strangle fully grown bears with the other.

Radical! Out of sight!
Clever? Well, they're certainly a departure from the norm: you nailed that part. That isn't always a good thing, though.

Indeed. They're also oversharpened, undersharpened, washed-out, oversaturated, or lack a focal point. And I notice that none of them have borders, which bothers me. The thing is, Dave, that they *look* like stocks + text, and none of these images is something I'd use for a signature.
Yahoozy:
Alright...what *is* that? It looks like a woman's head protruding from a futuristic refrigerator. It's JPG artifact-ed, uber-oversharpened, and the text is *tacky*.
Techno, were you actually talking about the most recent image he posted when you said it was simply amazing?

Whoa, whoa, whoa. Whoa.
Cool images, b_t. Some are pretty amusing.
Edit: Apparently incluye was referring to the book series. Withdrawn.

Thanks.
I'm not going to entertain an argument with incluye. That's silly. I'm just going to post images for people. Weird that he'd try to make it something else.
EDIT: Okay, incluye is creating arguments in other threads for no reason, too. I don't feel as bad, then. I'm just gonna keep making images and using the response I get from the non-whiny majority (as opposed to the whiny minority--nay, singularity) in my ambition to continue making kitch content.

You won't. But
many, or rather,
all but you would like to.
In all seriousness (as if I wasn't serious before, pssh), these sigs are very original, something completely out of the ordinary. incluye, you conformist!

Dave, do you use Gimp or PhotoShop?
I use Gimp. :x

This one is my favorite.
Since you're taking image orders, may I request a super-awesome one?
