Signature Criticism! [v.1]

We have the signature respect thread, but I feel like
it's time to get some constructive criticism flowing
for those who want to know not just the good things
about their signatures, but things that could stand
to improved, as well.

I understand that threads that seem to have a sense
of negativity to them are the source of drama and
hurt feelings, so please follow the rules to prevent
the thread being closed.

Mods:

"To me, it seems like the image on the left is a bit
blurry. Maybe try resizing it or finding one with
better quality?"

"Did you even try it all? It flat out sucks. You must
have got your coding instructions from a cereal box.

♡ Don't be too vague. Please post at least two sentences.

♡ Don't post too often. No more than twice a page, and at
least a few posts in between.

(I've been waiting for someone to make a thread like this! I want signature critique, but I can't get it on the respect thread)

Mostly it's pretty good, but parts of the image (a but of the top and a lot of the bottom) are cut off for me. Not sure if it's intentional, but it would look better if you either resized the image a bit or moved it a bit so the same amount is cut off from the top and bottom. Also, some of the text is a bit hard to read, it might be better is you spaced out the words a bit more.

(My screen does sometimes cut of signatures, but usually from the sides, so I think it's your sig but I'm not sure - If you want I can PM you a picture of how it looks for me)

*Gasps* I know you! Hey Aliria~

The two right images are a little fuzzy, and the pictures don't go down on an even slope, but I am likin' the pink ;) (my OCD has been acting up today...)

    i like it, but what bothers me is how the right side of your
    sig doesn't go up to the top. also, all the gifs are a bit
    distracting xd

It's very lovely to look at, but the pink kinda distracts me. I know it's supposed to match with Lion's color scheme but it blends a bit too much with the pictures. It just makes it hard to read. A darker pink or even black may help this.
Also, all the text seems to go everywhere. Maybe some boxes or borders to make it more focused?
Also, maybe adding a gif or two could make it stand out.


This sig goes EVERYWHERE for me. It's nice to look at, but at the same time I don't know where to look at. All the gifs and images seem to be everywhere. I recommend you put borders around the images, or maybe less images.
The text is also a bit weird. Maybe a border or a bio box should fix that up.


The image on the left is a bit blurry in quality. Try sharpening it up a bit.
Also the decaled symbols that are black and white look a bit off for me. (the ones that look like they were drawn)
Maybe add something that fits more with the signature?
The grey text is a bit hard to read. Try making it darker :)

    your signature is lovely, so there isn't much i can say i 'dislike' about it.
    though, there is a bit too much empty space in between your columns
    in my opinion. i guess i would just like to see it to be a bit more compact? uwu

Yours is great, but it feels kind of empty, maybe more text/images?

    everything's kinda spaced out. consider aligning them all to the left? and the pomeranian picture is kind of lossy. hm, the text in the boxes is still aligned normally. center them, and you're set!

    the two pictures of the boys are kinda lossy. did you upload them as .png? the quotes are kinda all over the place, so it's hard to find the order to read them. it's a very excellent signature otherwise!

    well, you cleared the fact that the white space was supposed to be transparent? go on paint.net or online-image-editor, and click 'transparency' and select the white. it'll remove. remember to save it as .png!

    @rater; please go onto Google Chrome at 100% zoom to best view my signature. thank you!

I think yours is great, but maybe more stuff, and also I can't see one of the images as well. If you gave me the code I'd be happy to fix it for you.

      Honestly, there is only one small detail catching
      my attention in a "bad" way.

      I feel like the "╭ " characters around the first lil'
      spiel of personal text isn't needed. I think it'd look
      great without those around it.


      Yours is a bit too text heavy. Maybe choose a saying
      that isn't so long and add some symbols or pics?
