    Yes. It's the first sig of the new year for me! So, I thought "Why not use a SSBB character as the render for this new sig?" And vola! It's done.

    First of all, the render is very small in here. Never, ever make it that small. If you want to make it small, then you should use a sprite. Otherwise, use the bust. Try to cut off the top of the head a little bit, too -- much more stylish. Read about the Rule of Thirds as well -- Nothing should ever be in the direct middle. There's a lack of depth, foreground effects, flow, colors, and lighting. The text leaves something to be desired. Try to research good composition.

    In my opinion, depth, foreground effects, flow, colors, and lighting doesn't necissarily make a sig good, but thanks.

    Im sorry to say this but it looks to blah to me...

    the backround is boring and the only good looking part is the shine on Ike's sword...

    No, it doesn't, but they are keys to sig composition. They're parts of sig that make it look better. If you master these than your sigs WILL improve.

    I like your sig. I think the background should be a different color though. If you want to bring out Ike a bit more, that might help. He melts to much into the background. :sleep: Sorry, it's kind of boring if Ike is part of the background.

    Alright. But can you tell me how EXACTLY I can do that? I mean, how to give a sig depth, foreground effects, flow, colors, and lighting.

    I take back what I said Ike does not melt into the background. He just clashes a bit with it...
