Hello! I'm looking to improve my signatures. Can I have some critique?

I love the overall signature, and it's design. Monochromatic greyscale colourschemes work very well or they do not work well at all, there is little to no inbetween, but here it works really well; and there was no room to go wrong here either because of the theme being zebra's :)
With that said, I do not think the font on the right hand side looks right... I think it is moreso the font choice itself rather than the words or placement. Maybe going back and cruising around some other already done signatures to get some inspiration of how words and fonts match could help?
Also, the middle is pushed down a little on my browser, I don't think the Transparent 'x' to cover a line needs to be there.
Other than that, it looks nicely done :)

welcome to the club hato!!
and chocco, nice signature! but i must agree that it is quite bright, and hurts my eyes a bit, despite the fact i have pretty decent vision/no eye issues. but anyway! nice work!

speaking of new signatures, i finally got around to finishing mine! any critique/comments are very much appreciated!!

I love the overall signature, layout is neat and tidy, the coding is spectacular and overall it is in the famous autumness size of being 200px high, which I adore to no ends.
With that said, the only thing I would change is the colour of the lighter stars. I am not sure if you can see them or not on your browser, but I cannot. (But it could be me being an old hag with crappy eyesight >.<)

Welcome to everyone who has signed up!
Thank you for taking the time to fill in a forum. Please feel free to ask questions of general or ask for critique here!

Off topic, Chooco, I asked for you to remove the comment, and you have failed to do so. This puts you under breaking the rule of:
"-No bullying and harassment, put downs and demoralizing terminology."
This is warning 1 for you.

As a general notice and announcement. CS Staff and mods are cracking down on signatures that have any form of art theft in them. If your signature has art or images that you did not make in their signature, then you must remove then or a mod will.
Do not do commissions with art theft in them, it doesn't help you get better on CS.
If you see a signature with art theft in it, please report it. Even if it is a false alarm, if the person can defend themselves with it and show the files that lead to the arts creation, then the person will be fine, if not; then they will probably get B/W'd
Thank you :)

The image on the right isn't working, as you can see. It keeps going to that tiny image thing. Any help? :c

EDIT: It works without the fireworks overlay. Gahhh

I think I have an obsession...

I keep on changing my signature then getting sick of it almost immediately
reinforcement?
Also honestly, it there anything I can change to improve it?

[Zish]

I'm having the same problem as Mimo.! How do you guys stick to one signature for a while? Haha, I just made this one last night and I'm already having a feeling that it's going to be changed soon...

And I would also love honest critiques. My main goal right now is to keep improving my signatures, and I would greatly appreciate any feedback! c:

For now... Mimo, I will give some critiques (but take this with a grain of salt, as I'm not that great of a coder myself aha).

I personally feel like the left is a bit empty. The gif is beautiful, but the space on the right of it makes it feel kinda empty. Maybe you could eliminate that somehow?

The gif box in the middle kinda gets me because it isn't exactly centered. I think it would look better if it was, maybe? The dot borders (not sure what they are called >w<) also slightly go below the lines, which bugs me a little, but that is a very small nitpick.

Other than that, it looks beautiful! It has a very distinct style to it, which I have never seen before. I like it very much. I also admire your avatar - the shape is so unique! Wow! I would have never thought of that. Good work! ^^

I have the exact same problem as you guys. I've changed my signature around 5 times in the past few weeks. Literally. I made a fireworks one last night and changed it just this morning. Whoop whoop.

Anyway, I'm so obsessed with Ariana Grande ;w; This is my second siggy based on her. How do you guys think of new topics for your sigs? ;3

I have to make myself clean out my signature stash because I have so many. I haven't made any new ones recently, but I have been pulling out older ones and revising them using my current style (which I would recommend to anyone who has older signatures just lying around)

[Zish]

I look at my current obsessions, things close to my heart, etc. for my signature themes. For example, this one is currently circled mostly around... well, I dunno if it has a specific theme. I guess the raptor, because I knew the moment I saw it I loved it... aha. So I was originally gonna make a simple siggy so I could get clicks for it... but this happened! I ended up editing the image, and making a slightly more complicated siggy than I had originally planned.

That's how it usually goes... just choose something that I love at the time, and bam! I have my signature theme. ;w;

[krunts]

i tend to change my signature a lot when i join a new fandom, or find interest in a character from my fandoms. i make it my sole duty to make a signature based off of it.

I commission my time to doing so many signatures for people, I don't have the time to make myself a signature most of the time, which is mainly because the ones I make take a good few weeks to do for one person and hours of works and fiddling around to make effects and record them and other special stuff which is trade secret for now ;)
*Currently the commission in my sig below took me... roughly 20 hours just to do the graphics alone because of the smoke being a pain in the ass to get to work together over three parts of the signature, and the time does not include talking to such a lovely friend who wanted the sig to begin with time-wise, if that was the case, you'd be looking at 4 hours more onto that total >.<*
Because of this, it is stressful enough to make a signature per month for myself >.<

Speechless. Speechless. Speechless.

20 hours? Mine only take one hour, all together most of the time. Levi, you are amazing. Gawd ;w;
