(I know this is in the wrong board for voting, but bite me.  ) jongos: There isn't a whole lot going on here. Just some simple blending, but you did a good job. It looks good, but I think you could have done more with it. For some improvments, I would try to work with the contrast a little. Good job. lpeef: I like this a lot. It is a little dark, but it fits in well with the stock. I like the different effects here. Though the right and left look a little too empty, I would try and fill them up a little bit. On the right side of the stock the contrast seems a little off. Maybe it is just me, but I like it. My vote: LPF. |

LPF: This one is too dark. It could use some text on the right side to fill up some of the empty space. I like the stock you used and the effect you created around the stock, but overall the something about it I don't like. jongos: No text either? What's going on  I like the colors used, the color in the top left looks good but it doesn't stand out enough. I think it would look better with the texture's opacity reduced so the background colors would stand out a bit more. I do like it though. My Vote - jongosLPF: 1 jongos : 1 |

It's usually rare to see text in sigs these days because text is usually the component that brings the sig down the most. Don't be surprised when you dont see it. |

...but it's rarely done well, hence why they dont do it.
I never said it couldn't be done well, I just said it's rare to see text because not very many people can pull it off. Among proboarders anyways.

You are both pretty much saying the same thing. Some avoid that which they can't do as well as they want, and some do it more often to get better. Being very good at text should be a status symbol then, yes? Just babbling... My vote: AdamJongos' looks like it has a lot of glare that is very distracting. Adam, yours looks AMAZING on a black background, but it still translates well here on a light background. Well done. This is the best I've seen from you lately. It makes me happy. Colors, no text, and I actually see the tattoos on his neck before I even look at his face. It really draws my attention.  LPF: 2 Jongos: 1 And Ryan, I refuse to bite you for voting early. |

Adam.
Jongos has a nice piece, and the colors are pretty interesting, but I'm just not a fan of the various effects, mostly those that overlap the focal, which I think could stand out a bit more.
I like the effects Adam used, and the detail and depth; I'm not a fan of the black BGs, this one in particular: it gives the illusion of a floating head. It's good, nonetheless, and the better of the two, imo.
Adam: 3
Jongos: 1

jongos; although I love the use of the colors, smoothness, and overall appeal, I don't like how texture is over the render. Making that slick would've probably made it pop out even more. Contrast could be used to be messed with.
adam; it looks simply amazing on a black background. There's specks of white and little bit of color here and there. Although I love color, I love black as well. The render isn't centered like it typically is, and the effects are used rather well. No text actually spoke more words than text itself would've.
Vote: Adam.
Adam: 4
jongos: 1
Congrats on the win, adam.
You both did great.

I like the colors used, the color in the top left looks good but it doesn't stand out enough. I think it would look better with the texture's opacity reduced so the background colors would stand out a bit more. I do like it though.
