lol i like jacobs one, wonder who else will enter

[Samus-Fan]

Jacob, I told you last time I wanted layers.
This one, I see the background layer, with everything, and then some text, and then a layer that is invisable.
I'm sorry, but since I have already made you aware of it and told you about it 3 times, I can not accept it.

1. I have a background.

2. I have the render and the background merged as u can see.

3. You can see the text.

4. I have the render again for effects.

5. The rest I did in gimp

How in the heck is that not right

1. your background seems to be the sig

2. why merge and then take a screenshot?

3. yeah we see text.

4. that render seems blank

5. right..

its not right. its not fair. It's not fair that you can show merged layers of everything while others have to show specifics.

its up to the host to make the exceptions, if he won't make one for you, its your loss, not anyone else's

[Yuuki]

Dun ask why I put "90". Just the first number I typed in... Lol.

Ok. I have no idea how there is a problem here!

I made a background I added my render I merge them so I can paste the render and background again and off set them for a effect. then I add another layer for color. and the blank looking render is a 3th one set at 5% overlay then I did my added effects.


I just have no idea how u don't get this. I had to merge them

you don't seem to understand - we want screenshots of the UNMERGED layers - a merged layer is the same thing as getting a jpeg or gif image - we want to see the work

there is no problem here if you abide by the rules and listen to the sotw host

and again full discretion for this lies on the host - no arguments

Ok, basically flat out saying it, they wanna see layers! They don't want the layers you have in your sig as one (merged). It is kind of a rule in SOTW to have your layers shown. Proof that you didn't just find the sig and open it up on Photoshop and say it's your own. Did I word that right...? Lol.

What I am trying to say is!

When I was a starting designer I took a background added a render and then my name and added it to sotw. It did just fine. Now u guys have proof that I have a background and I added a render and text. That shows proof.

Also there is no way I can find a sig open it in photoshop and say it was mine 1 it was gimp and 2 it is a render given to us to use.

Yall have proof of a back ground a render and text what else do u need

you didn't create the background in any of your sigs? you just paste the background as it is? or do you do anything with it? what about the current sotw poll sig? the AvP one...is it just a background with some render with your name on it?

also you said:

fully contradicting yourself do you see? you say you made the background and now you say you took a background?

No I said I did that when I was a new designer.

If I was to open the file back up and show you all the layers can I have my sig enterd

[LiNuX]

i dont see anywhere where it says "when i was a new designer"

as for opening the file back up, if you can show us EVERYTHING then maybe, its not up to me to enter sigs, but i can bar people from it

should show your background as well, all its layers

[LemonRising]

No offense to anyone, but if we're gonna get picky with layers..
did anyone notice Random's screenshot only 'showed' one layer?
I don't know guys.
Since the render is given, it's harder to go around and steal a sig already made with the same render.

You see a good portion of layers, and i understand what happened, but for future reference i suggest you take two screens Jacob, maybe an in progress and then a finished.

random uses PSP, those are the rasters you see there - im sure if you ask him he can provide the base file, but with Jacob, it's almost pointless because he claims he merged the layers.

and its not about stealing a sig made with the same render, if you take a premade background and you just stick a render in there, you can't call it fully your work if you haven't done anything to the background - if you used photo manip or anything like that then its alright, show some form of work there

in jacob's screen, we see a background, and a background copy, followed by a blank render and a little text

[Jaykub]

Here is the screens ya need.

Erm... You can still see the layer for the merged sig, plus the sign hasn't been rendered, and you can't see any white on it... :/

Wow!

You can see "ALL" the layers I used and the merged were done after the sig for effects u have proof of this sig wow

[Joshuah]

Agh nm, Samus, are you going to put our sigs in and do the poll, because... SOTW 45 has already started ¬¬

Samus Is away right now. He will be back in a few

[Joshuah]

Oh okay (: my bad

[Samus-Fan]

In a few days.
God guys, I am so sorry.
We went on a late vacation and went to a condo, where the owner TOLD us there was internet. We get there, no phone, no TV, no internet. I was at the airport on the 17th, and I was going to close it up and open the poll, but I thought, "Oh, I have internet. I'll just do it tonight."
Once again, I am so sorry.
