Thor's next sig

I do like the current one I have, but am thinking of going a bit more simple for my next one. What do you guys think of this one?

Ok, something isn't working. It's supposed to have a transparent background. Hmmmmm.

I'm also going to try some different planes.


Edit: Ok, I cant do what I wanted. Apparently you cant have a drop shadow on a transparent background, which completely ruins my idea. I will just use the background I made a while back.

I like your current one better anyway, not that the new one isn't nice.

Hey Thorlifter, I like that Me262 sig!

Perhaps if you used a cream-colored background color that matched the forum's so the drop shadow blends better?

Grau, thats what I did with mine. Instead of transparent I just used made a small jpg of the background and then pasted it all over until I had a complete background. I think it worked for me.

Njaco, your's looks great and really blends in well!

I actually copied the forum's background and used it as a layer for the background of the lower He280 image, then when I added a drop-shadow over it, it created that "transparent" look...

If Thorlifter wanted to keep the Me262 sig the way it was originally intended, I think that would be the way to go, in order to keep the shadows.

Ahh the art of deception

Thanks GG and Njaco, I didn't even think of that.

BTW GG, I really like your new sig. Cool font.

I appreciate it, Gnomey. I'm pretty pleased with it. I think I'll do one more edit to it and try to figure out how to add a border around it.
