Jhoi, you did a great job! Once again reminding me that you are the best (imo) graphic maker on MOBAFire. :P I like them all, but being as I used to be a graphic designer myself and a bit of a critic I can be rather picky when it comes to certain even small things.. lol I hope you don't mind me saying a few things, just me being my usual critical self. lol
The Singed and Ashe ones are my favorite, they flow nice and the fonts really fit well. I like the Mordekaiser one a lot as well, one thing though at first I didn't even realize there was any text in the image because it blended in so well. I do like how it was on the guitar, but it doesn't pop too much and can be a little overlooked.
The Amumu rendering is also very nice, however the font squares I'm not big on. It looks decent, but something seems a bit off.
With the Cho'Gath one I'm not big on the font or the astericks inbetween each letter, and the rendering is a little plane, doesn't really fit together ya know?
And the Fiddlesticks rendering and bg is really great, fits amazing together, but the font seems a little off.
Tryndamere one is great, nothing really to say about that one.
I hope it doesn't seem like I'm complaining, cause I'm really not. I love your work and didn't expect you to decide to do so many and I really appreciate it! Just giving some tips and honest opinions, I have a problem about being too critical about graphic design sometimes.. lol But trust me, if I say some one's work is good, it is. :P Right now I'm using every one you made for me except the Cho'gath one and credited you of course!
Again, thanks a lot!

Singed:
Ashe:
Amumu:
Amumu: Originally I had hieroglyphics, but for some reason my computer won't support any foreign texts, no matter where I download them from, so it displayed in unicode. I thought, well, it looks kinda cool anyway, so left it. But I can take it out if you like. Basically I was trying to do different things with the font each time.
Tryndamere:
Mordekaiser:
Morde: I could make the text have a stronger outline, but I didn't want it to look super-imposed.
Cho'Gath:
Cho'Gath: Was trying different things with the font, and I thought the asterisks gave it a kind of military feel, which suited the washed-out effect. The render is the original render, and the background is a tad washed out. I think I fiddled too much with the exposure. Will try and make a new one.
Fiddlesticks:
Fiddlesticks: I grew sick of having Havok displayed in the horizontal plane, and figured a vertical plane would be the next best bet. I chose a font that I thought matched the background, and the spindles of Fiddlesticks himself. Would make no sense to have block text there - it needed a free flowing, curly/spindly text.

Thanks Xiao, been following your tutorials and the ones you have suggested in your resource thread, so thanks for compiling all that. Still trying to get the hang of filters - have been over-doing them :)

Glad I've helped jhoijhoi!
Yeah I've over done many filters on some of my signatures.
Just be careful not to overly do it though, too much sharpen, blur, or topaz can make it worse :*
Keep up good work :D!

Jeffy: I like the old version and the new version - both styles are really good, so don't think your prior work is inferoir! Thanks for the new sig, will add it in ^^
Xiao: That is my favourite sig I've made so far :) Problem is, it is also possibly the most simple, which kinda annoyed me :P So much effort into other sigs don't end up as nice as something that took half the time =.=
Filters: I hadn't actually considered blurring an applied image and then lowering the opacity - I had just been making a copy layer sharpen > sharpen and then just lowered the opacity for that layer. I can see the benefits of blurring AND sharpening like in your recently made tag. Looks really nice.
