Gifts from Pyro
Yeah i think I'll use Villain skin for a while, You know the saying, A change is like a holiday, lord know's I need one
CR - This came out great but I suggest a different shot if possible. The refelctive area on the button lens, in conjunction with the shaded areas around your temples and facial hair, kinda makes you look like a Klingon.

Hmm I see that... wasn't thinking of a Klingon at first but now that you mention it I'm having
a hard time not seeing it... (lol @ the power of suggestion) someone hand me a
Bat'leth! ...or a Boggle bubble.

Well Pyro's buttons are obviously awesome so it's more than likely my avatar that isn't playing
along (he's unruly like that

otherwise Psygon mentioned that my hero Xllusya was on the list to get cutified maybe I could
use that image (like Kheldarn's which looks great) instead?

Hahahaha.

Oooooooooo! (I actually said this out loud when I saw the new button

Now we are talkin! The logo is cool and the colors are perfect, I love eeet!
Yay! Ty Ty Pyro.
P.S. Ok this gives me an idea for a sig... you can have 4 links max in your sig right? I think this can
be the centerpiece and I can make some stuff to go around and under it.
CR! You and your orange tang colors! Thank God these colors don't glow! tehe Gratz on the Pyro button.

Lol Foo's button will enable him to say F U every time he posts haha

Yeah almost as awesome as mine... but my letters glow.

I love that Pyro took the design element of a glowing amber aura from my avatar
and incorporated it into my button with no input from me whatsoever... very artistic of you.
+1rep and a dozen brownie points for that!

[ QUOTE=Starwind;2228181]Great work Pyro, they look fantastic! Your shading looks great to me. Very inspirational!
Just wondering on your approach...For the most part - are you using the same border and refelective face, (as seperate layers), where you only need to color the border add the new image? Man, I'd love one of these ![]() |
This has made all the difference! In the beginning, I wanted to make each design from scratch...so I could learn "how it works" rather than the "well I guess that goes there now" approach. But since I think I'm getting the hang of it...I've now created consistancy, as well as, speed. I've got a template...wooohooo!!!!
Thanks Starwind for hinting at where I needed to go with the design process!
And this button design is different than all previous for a few reasons:
1) Took very detailed color requests.
2) Started with the BASE:
3) Found us a STAR:
4) Created this from that:
5) You might not even see the next part if it's used as an Avatar...but I threw in some stars to match Starwind's sig:
And eventually....we got this: TahDah!!!

Hahaha Dagnabbit Pyro! You're not allowed to outcoolify my cool ideas before I even create them... that's uncool!

Wonder if can incorporate the two of them together. hmmmmm....
Pyro - I love the re-worked versions for Swan and King. They look simply amazing!
