Grimm, I remember from a while ago that you keep all of your .PSDs. Would you mind showing me some? Like bob's sig or one of your blood sigs :huh:

Please? ^_^

Hmm... For some reason the forums never showed a new topic started in here... Which would explain my not seeing it sooner.

After searching around my hard drive, I've come to the unfortunate conclusion that the .psd for Bob's sig is lost. Back on my old hard drive, there was a time when it basically died on me. Fortunately, through the use of Knoppix and having two disk drives, I was able to burn the files I wanted to save on backup disks. Unfortunately, my hard drive decided to die again a few months later, this time not allowing me to access any of the files at all. If memory serves me correct, the .psd is somewhere on the old hard drive, created between the first death and the second. And after searching some more, the same seems to have happened with my original blood tentacle .psd's. There may be a way for me to retrieve the data, as I've merely stuck the drive in the second space in my tower, to allow my new drive to take the main spot, although I don't know any way other than taking it to some kind of data recovery place, which I've been told can become rather expensive.

I suppose the best I could do for now would be to link you to the original tutorial I used for my signature (http://www.project09.com/tutorials/Photoshop/3d-tentacles/). Before, I had refrained from making that site known to others because I didn't want everyone to have the same theme going on as I did, but now that I've gotten tired of my sig and am searching for a new design, it isn't as big a deal.

Awesome, thanks for the link grimm. I don't want to make a sig like that or anything, I'm just a very curious person and I just wanted to know how it was done. I'm the kind of person who wants to know the magician's secrets :p

BTW, How'd you do the water droplets like in Bob's?

Ah ha! Found it (http://www.gurusnetwork.com/tutorial/droplets/). Have fun with it, hope you get as confused as I did the first time I went through it. :D
