Anyway here spirit a nice big ass bright Hatsune :

Hehehee.... I thought what I said was clear.
The format of your work is too small. I assume, you have a standard-resolution monitor therefore the images seems to look "large" on your screen.
I, on the other hand, have one of the highest resolution monitors [1920x1200]that is why images of lower resolution and format look too small/crappy and it's hard to distinguish the details in your work.

Speaking of Hatsune sig - you didn't have to brighten it up :/ It looked good the way it was! I said "bigger" not brighter xD *smiles*
Btw, I can tell you just resided your original sig - because this one looks kinda pixelated (it's visible on Hatsune's face).

I hope you are going to understand me this time.

->Um... that's actually a um... mistake on my half >.> I'll fade in the sharpen next time like Chloe told me. And if you look a lil closer it's a completely different image.
The 1st Hatsune sig has an ugly wind effect that I now regret adding in going from the left to the right and the Hatsune render is cropped more and if you look closely you can see a drop shadow on the tag. The 2nd version has a different font and effects and has a ton of stuff added in but you can't see it because of the accursed lighting .__.

Hehe, actually I liked that effect ;) You see, every person has a different taste.
Could make it less bright? I actually enjoy deep, vibrant colors :D The effect of brightness makes it "glow" but at the same time the colors look "washed out." And I love deep turquoise and azure colors ;) (I hope you don't find my comments picky ^^)
Btw. this sig is BIG :D
Can you tell me what resolution is your monitor?

It's too formal to be just an idle question for somebody like me.

It's a question that I ask most people who tag. Forr me it takes 30 minutes - 1 hour. My best are Usually 1 1/2 hours.

Normally an hour flat:- I'm picky with what I use and I try to add stuff till I just can't anymore. That and I'm not very good with blending in fonts and I experiment a lot being the newb I am :(

O:
One has my name on it! =D
Great work Vak, I wish I was able to do stuff like that. I just fail miserably though.
