So, my annoyance with the constant anime sigs, and my disgust for GR aside, I vote for Swat. 3 reasons:

1)Zero's is too simple, though simple works when you have a kickass render or for other reasons.

2)Swat just faded together multiple layers of the image to create the background, but it works. Keeps the colors in the same palette.

3)Overall I just like Swat's more.

With that said, I think both of you guys could've done a lot better. You both used supercrap fonts here, they're just slapped in there.

I wish time would've afforded me the chance to get in on this.

Zero

He used his normal sig style and for once, it looks awesome. (Sorry if thats harsh )
  • Simple yet better than I expected for a default only
  • Swat has almost no brushing. I know some sigs don't need brushing but in a default only, c'mon now.
  • Swats text is just eww. I probably would have voted for him but the text just makes it bad. Zero used his normal style of text and banner and it worked out good for him.
I woulda liked to see better from you both though. Capable of much more I think. Good job nonetheless.

Well I am always trying new things, and what not.......I try to avoid making to many sigs of the same style.

I liked this sig, causs of its simplicity. And the one dude that said it was anime, I guess it could be, but it is like concept art, or some sort of pic of kingdom hearts (video game).

Not too fond of either, sorry.

I dont really like Swats background, and the text, quite frankly, is just bad.
But I dont really like Zero's, the text sort of takes over the sig, and i dont like the background.

Vote Swat
-Better use of multiple colors
-Better blending
-Very slightly better text

I vote for Zero.
  • I like how it's soft. I'm tired of every single sig being sharp.
  • Better colors.
  • Backround is more uniquie.
