Hey guys, you may not know, but I am also an amatuer graphic designer. So if anyone needs a new avatar, or logo or anything like that, please post an order here. I will do all design work free of charge and as quickly as possible. I will upload some examples of things that I have done for myself.
 
Just fill this out in a post here.

Or, if you wait, I can make you all animated .gif avatars or signatures like mine! (Just got to get more types and then you can choose the colors and such.)

Haha. I was joking. That won't happen for a while. Go on and do your thing here. Good luck.

Looking at your logo, you use a 1px yellow Stroke with the default Drop Shadow on your title. (It looks like a font I'd know but I can't put my finger on it)

And you use a dark blue Outer Glow with increased Spread (Or maybe just a 3 or 4px Stroke) and a Reflected or Linear Gradient Overlay consisting of Blue Yellow Blue Yellow (Blue?) on the subtitle.


Classy.

Thanks, and good eye! Are you a graphic designer yourself Redline? Or do you just like to tinker with Photoshop?

Just use Photoshop a lot. Guess I am a competent graphic designer though.

I have figured out how to do robot skins now as well. So if anyone needs anything designed, I'd be glad to do it. Just fill out the below information, and if it is a skin you are needing, email the templete to hurricane.andrew92@hotmail.com (hurricane.andrew92@hotmail.com)

Based on your signature, you have a very basic understanding of Photoshop.

I can do alot more. I just prefer to keep my designs fairly simple, but still make them look good.
 
Basically, I save the complex Photoshop work for paying clients.
 
Really I'd rather work with Illustrator and InDesign, but I don't have the money to buy Adobe CS3 or CS4 yet.
 
Edit: Where it says "Team Reject..." is just text, but the Hurricane Designs & Graphics is Photoshop.

Keeping it simple is fine. Look at my sig. It's very simple, yet it's not too simple. Know what I mean?

I would suggest playing around with the style settings. While the default settings are occasionally good, using nothing but defaults is generally a no-no.
