    you guys know wat to do[​IMG]

    the theme for round 2 was:

    The world game

    basically, take a memorable moment (doesnt have to be a goal, players celebrating after the final whistle maybe? or fans celebrating with a player?) from the two previous world cups (german and korea-japan) and make a sig from it.

    round 2 was between wolf and echo.

    wolf's sig:

    echo

    please vote for the sig that works best with the theme and overall appearance. also, state who you voted for and why. thats why theres no poll

    voting closes tuesday 9pm AEST

    Wolf Sig:
    Love the render effect and also the daubs of Zidane around but if you lower the opacity of them then it would even better.. Text is nice and shiny and goes with the Border which is also nice with the shiny effect

    Echo Sig:
    Look like you have just got pictures put them on the canvas and added some brushing lower the opacity and used colour balance... also think naming the team was the wrong choice

    My vote:
    Wolf

    Wolf i like the bits of Zidane around the place and the sort of ripple water effect.

    Echo i like the Name bar and the colours but a bit too plain IMO

    My vote:Wolf

    I vote wolf because I like the ripples and everything. Plus it was a true great (Zidane)'s last World Cup

    please vote for the sig which (firstly) symbolises the theme. second criteria is effects, textures etc. dont vote for a sig purely jus on looks.

    Wolf - I dont really like the watery/liquify effect on the sig. I just dont like the look of it. But the rest looks pretty good.

    Echo - I like the way u put the team names in there but the effect is really boring. As wat beggsy sed it looks like u have just brushed over the sig and put the layer on a low opacity. Yours follows the theme though.

    Vote - Wolf

    I'm voting for Echo, reasons below.

    Wolf - I don't really like the effects on yours, it's a bit messy and IMO it doesn't properly capture the memorable moment, it could just be a picture of Zidane kicking a ball. And also the colours are all over the place, it seems too contrasted.

    Echo - I like the way all the theme goes through the whole sig and how they blend into each other really well. The bar with the names is at a good spot and looks good. This sig captures the moment more than Wolf's and since that is what we're meant to be voting on, my vote goes to you.

    I was waiting for someone to say that, its actually Zidane scoring that Penalty which hit the crossbar and just bounced in.

    We dont know that Wolf, that could be any picture, next time make it more clearer to avoid confusion.

    Now I do think Wolfs is better, but sticking to the theme then I would have to vote for Echo because his sig showing the actual theme.
