Gonna give feedback on these as well as vote (since I have to).

palzm's entry - I really like it, looks good and all that, but it's got a really nice border... and he's not in it, nor is his lazor... Just ruins pic for me.

The_Nameless_Bard's entry - I don't see much of anything done, and personally really like the Zelda one, but since it was disqualified I can't vote for it.

Alexanpt's entry - I like what's going on in the background and how it's laid out, but the animation is just going too fast ,which it might be in game, but it doesn't stop on the sig, like it would in game. This just gives me an eyesore.

My entry - I can't even vote for it T.T (nor would I)

Canoas' entry - Nice use of .gif/animation. Good and basic colors and animation not too fast. This is the best IMO.

TL;DR

- I vote for Canoas.

Ok, now, on to the critics. I will be blunt so if you don't like to hear what I liked and disliked about your sigs in a blunt way then do not read this.

Sig #1, Palzm's entry:
It's pretty cool but there are some flaws. You should have made the beam 8-bit as well and not have it pop out of the border. Or at least not hide the beginning of the beam behind the text. I like how you gave megaman a 3D look but it made the image lose a bit of quality. Also, if you had made it look like it had some thickness as well by duplicating the image it would have looked a lot better.
The focus is correct, the way the background is brighter behind megaman makes us focus on him. The text, however, does not share the same flow as the background. The text is going into the distance while the background is moving in a circular fashion.

Sig #2, Nameless' entry:
You just enlarged a really small sprite, and it obviously blurred it out and lowered the quality tremendously. If you had taken the time to draw mario by using a large square brush it would have looked a lot better. The outer glow doesn't look very good due to the flaws mario has after resizing. You made the glow really thick and it only made the flaws stand out. The background is very plain and does not help mario stand out in any way.

Sig #3, Alexanpt's entry:
You used a very fast animation that repeats itself twice per second to show belmont attacking with the whip. If you had shown the middle frame we would have understood he's attacking with his whip as well, so the animation brings nothing new to the sig. It is very repetitive and after the first 3 seconds, boring.
Animations should be used to provide some movement to sig, adding another "dimension" to it. You should have made him actually do something, like vanquish an enemy or launch a fireball. Something that provides more insight into what he does and makes it not look just as repetitive. Making a brief pause between each attack would have made it look better and not so repetitive.
The rest of the dig is good, but belmont doesn't seem to fit in it. The colours are right, and so is the focus.

Sig#4, Nyoike's entry:
I don't think the colours fit very well together. I think the brown from the border doesn't go very well with the green and blue. And the way you tried to replicate saliva wasn't very good. You should have made it look like the spit was coming out of his mouth, not surrounding him mouth and tongue. Other than that it was pretty good.

Sig#5, Canoas' entry:
Clearly everything but the text was hand-drawn with magical hands, and that is tremendously awesome.


My vote goes to sig #1.

I agree 100%, I really didn't try too hard to get it all to fit T.T And I was running out of time before I had to go to work that day so I rushed it... probably not the best idea...
