DO IT!

No matter how embarrassing or bad they are, just post some of them for fun. I'm curious so see how some people started out.

Here are some of mine...

My first graphic ever ^_^, made it in July of last year. I started making GFX becuase earlier that year no one, and I mean no one would do my banner requests, so I made it a summer goal of mine to learn how to make graphic. Lol, I remember going on MSN and asking Jae for help, he gave me a few tips and I came up with this. Pretty damn awesome eh?

Second sig ever...

Yeah don't ask. >_>

I made this for AMP, HE ACTUALLY USED IT FOR A FEW HOURS TOO! which made me mark out

. Sexy background and text right?

My Megan Fox sig <3. What was awesome about this sig is that people actually liked it!(I did too at the time).

My first ever splash <3. I was only a week or 2 into doing graphics and this PPV competition was going on. I can't remember who, although I think it may have been Carl, but it was an experienced designer, told me to enter in the competition, so it really convinced me to try

and I came up with this. Not going to lie, but other than the awful Ric Flair text, I still luv this graphic. Took me hours to figure out how to blend the fireworks by the way, but yes I did spend quite a bit of time on this, a lot more than I should have lets say..:/

So, there a few of mine. You guys should go ahead and post yours. I'm sure a lot of people would be interested in seeing the progress you have made over time.

Did you mean to post this in the showroom?

That is my first ever sig. Made in early January 2007.

2nd ever.

3rd ever.

Good thread, EGame. Let's hope it's successful.

I started GFX in 2006, about the time the Football (Soccer) World Cup was on TV, so summer of that Year..

1st sig ever

Absoloutely terrible, imo. Cali is my username on another site that I used to visit regulary, and hell, who in their right mind would rip this anyways?

2nd sig ever

I honestly don't think I will ever use this again. Yes, I said again.. as I actually used this on that other site I was on about.

3rd sig ever

As you can see I was making progress........slowly. Another relatively bad signature. It's good that I use textures now, as I never did really enjoy brushing all the time. This one looks rather messy, too.

EDIT: Ugh, everyone else's first sigs are waaay better then mine. I guess I should of used atleast one texture earlier on.

moved.

so, these arent my first, as i deleted them when i was cleaning out my graphics. i was able to find my photobucket account tho, and saw some interesting banners there lol.

so this was pretty bad. tho at the time i loved it lol. but that was back when i first joined almost, so yeah, a long time ago. oh wow, horrible!

omg...brushing....ewie! this is why i stopped the whole brushing thing lol.

while he's still my Canadian hero...this sig is overly horrible. did i really do crap like this?

hehe...dont u just love the diagonal text phase most of us all went through lol.

anyways.....so thats enough of that. i'm scared to look through that account anymore to be quite honest lol.

**Hawt Es** · 03-16-2008, 07:28 PM

This is my oldest piece of work to date. Made in April 2005. I made a few things a few months before this but they are long gone.

2nd oldest. Also from 2005.

Summer 2005 ^^^

Then I took a long break.

Then I came back in 2006

I deleted most of my old stuff. My first graphic is long gone.

I'm going to save this and use it later on.

You all used a lot of brushing, I could never seem to get that to work with my graphics starting out.

**JM Nash** · 03-16-2008, 08:07 PM

Found my first ever splash

. This was used for the first ever WFGF show. RIP WFGF

**Crazian** · 03-16-2008, 08:34 PM

Ugh. It seems like I've deleted my really old banners. Sucks. I remember your old banners EGame. They were pretty awesome for first tries.

**.Big.C.** · 03-16-2008, 08:46 PM

First EVER!!!

Second...

Third...

About 2-3 months or so in...when I got told I needed to step up and stop using brushing etc...and my first decent photomanips on every image.
