    because his eyes were bright and round, and no amount of time or liquor could dull them
    my grandmother's name was joy because it spilled out of her heart, and bathed her
    precious children in its warmth and there was happiness in life beyond the sorrow
    and the pain but how they ever found it, I cannot explain I guess time
    has a way of making everything all right it's just, there is not enough of it
    and so we drink and we sing and we celebrate this lie
    and hope that it will last
    morning is here, night has passed

    Ehhh, I'm not crazy about it. It needs more to it, but then again, it's nice in a sort of simple way.
    comments n' critique. ♥

    Seems a bit too simple for you, honestly. Not liking the all-yellow color scheme, maybe try adding some stronger colors, reds or maybe a green. Just seems to light to me, borders seem to make the sig very unbalanced, just because the focal point is also on the left side, try making the border go all around the sig. I don't know why, I feel like there should be birds in the background or something.

    Maybe a plane.

    Its not really standing out much. I mean, the brightness to it may be affecting that alot. Border is way awesome and the effects are cool, but maybe if we could see them? xD

    In general, it's a good idea just to me, it doesn't look complete.
    The border looks good, and I like how you didn't put it surrounding the entire tag. Although, the color that you chose looks a bit bland to me since a lot of the colors in the tag are reoccurring. Love the color of the text "highwind" and how clear/ high quality the image you used is. The lighting and effects looks like something you would use to make avatars, just because it works a bit better in the condensed 100 x 100 space. The right side of the tag is too bland since there aren't any effects over in that corner. I wish you would've used some more color, the image of Cid you used gives a lot of options for diversity of color since he himself isn't designated towards one color.
    Overall, I still like the tag itself but there are still a lot of things that could be added. :3

    Thanks for the crit guys. ;D

    I wanted to do a warm tag, lol. I tried adding some blues and greens in there but they ended up looking really dumb. :/ Maybe I'll try again lol, probably not though, I've only made a version two of like three tags I've done.

    also Kites I love the text color too. :'D

    For the look you're trying to go to, It's not bad at all. It's just very empty and looks like it needs more to accompany the stock.

    Honestly, i'm not too good at critique, I haven't done so in a very long time =]

    I think it's a nice signature. The lines could be darker, though. Adding a background would improve it too. If the background was a darker color, he would stand out more.
