Feedback:Text: Why would you make a gradient with black and white if the rest of your sig is Laker colors. Find out how to change the gradient color and make it match the sig. The placement of the "Tearing LA up" text is horrible. Also, it's real plain just a regualr font with a gradient and a stroke. Try actually blending it, be CREATIVE!!BG: Damn, where do I start?..The pic is wack. If you're going to use a pic like that for your BG try finding a better one that would actually look like Kobe belongs there. DO NOT brush on it like what you did. The brushes are crappy, and it just looks plain tacky. Make a new layer for brushing if you are going to brush over a pic, then lower the opacity or blend it to where it looks nice. Try patterns, also.The pic: No lie, it looks like you did a gaussian blur on him like 8 times. He looks like the damn sun. Don't go for that look on players. Try duplicating the layer of the pic, then blending it after the blur.Other than what I've stated, the only advice I can think of for you is just to try differentstyles onyour sigs. All the BG's are too bright and they take the attention from everything else away. Fix that, and text and you'll be fine.-DWade3.
I think it's stupid to <Censored> with the lighting on players the majority of the time. If the pic is from a photo shoot then I'm sure the professional photographer knows a little more about lighting than you do, and I don't think it's necessary to play with it too much. In some cases it can look good, but most of the time it just looks tacky and makes the pic too bright or dark. Kobe looks yellow here, there's no need to <Censored> it up that much.
