I'm not sure what you're going for but my suggestion would be to adjust the area where you fall 'behind' the leaves. Maybe it's intended for you to be standing behind the leaves like they're a curtain or something but it looks kind of abrupt. I would ease your 'vector self' into the leaves a little more so it looks like you're slowly blending/fading into them.

Someone at GT is giving an in depth critique of my work?! Awesome! This rarely happens.

Thanks for the advice and critique, GM.

The font is Papyrus, it's one that null uses a lot. And I might post those pictures you are talking about, because personally I think the "vectored" version of me looks really cool.

A few other people have told me that the transition from me to leaves is abrupt, although I don't see it, but I'm going to try and fix it anyway.

And here is the poetic explanation:

There is a photo of me with a "gun" to my head, and leaves falling around me. The quote says "I was born in a house of leaves", and a leaf house would be very unstable. It would not take much to knock the "house" over. And in the sig, the leaves are falling around me, meaning that the house has collapses. The leaves are a symbol of my life, and the entire sig represents how unstable things are, including me.

I like the colorful bubble one i'd have to say thats your best. stylish. i also like that it gives the appearence that its not as tall. prolly the bubbles or the slight extra length that gives that appearence, but i dont like the tall looking ones.
