Anyone know where I can get other game renders? Those ones aren't the greatest. Also, I have a stupid web filter that I cannot acess and it blocks Deviantart, so is there somewhere else with some good grunge brushes? I found some grunge brushes, but they aren't the greatest, and I ended up with this:
which I don't think is very good compared to the others here.

1.First open a new image.
File>new>Set the image size.

2.I like to start out with a certin brush called ab#4 from http://www.deviantar...iation/20251391 =No name brush set.
Brush all around

3.I use a filter right here called polar coords
Filters>Distorts>polar coords
Circle depth in precent:0
Offset angle:play with it tell you like it

3b.For a more swirly look make a new image 800x600 and follow the above steps.
4.Add a new layer
Layer>new layer>Keep the default settings
5.Brush over it with so me brushes.I'll uselly use a whole set of them*Don't just use the same brush over and over again*

You can keep doing this step to get different results
6.Next you need to color it.
Theres two ways i color mine Colorize and color balnce
Color Balance:
Tools>Color tools>Color Balnce.
Play wiht the setings untill you like.

Colorize:
Tools>Color Tools>Colorize
Play witht he setings untill you like.


7.Renders play a big part of the sig.I'll use one I got from http://www.gamerenders.com
Make a new folder called renders>Save any render you like to there>Open it up>Scale it to a size that goes with your bg>Copy and paste to your sig.


8.Next we need to add text.You can get fonts at http://www.dafont.com .I'll use Sell Your soul.
Filters>text>Freetype
Scroll through the list untill you find oen you like

I just made mine simple white.
You can add more detail to it.


9.After all this you need to add a border
Script-ful>Decor>Add border

Border x size:1-2*I usally use 1*
Border y size:1-2

Border color:Black
Defalt value:I use 25, but you can do what ever you like


10.Now you need to save it. You can save it as anything you want.I use mostly all of them


11.Now you must upload it.You can use http://photobucket.com/

[surfing-ant]

This tutorial was very helpful.
I added a few of my own touches and this was my first result:



Thanks for the cool easy tut

[SharpHunter]

I really liked this tutorial, I used it to create my sig :h:

[Gladalin]

Okay this is what I got from it, I couldn't figure out how to use brushes so I used a different background. If someone knows how to use brushes that would help a lot because when I used them it just made black blotches.... like on paint.



Also, how do you unselect a tool/picture. I tried using another render and I was unable to drag it around the screen onto the sig, whenever I would click on it it would bring up the interface of what ever tool I was using....

[malickspence]

THIS IS SOO COOL! but how come when i use it it just comes up as a black lump?

[malickspence]

This is kinda my result...well not really but what do you think anyway?

[My Hatred Of You]

Thats my turn out. Nice tut btw.
