    I didn't draw it. I just got some image someone gave me and made it to that kind of avatar/signature :)

    This signature I made for a contest on another board. I just made it 10 minutes before the deadline, so it's a bit simple :)

    Wow. All of your artwork is really impressive. Are you using Photoshop CS3? I heard it was actually pretty different than CS2... How long have you been working with ps?

    Another question (sorry haha)... What format do you save all your files in?

    I'm using photoshop CS actually, since my computer isn't able to run the higher versions.

    Anyway, I'm working with photoshop for about 3 years now, and learned most stuff by just following simple tutorials and trying a lot.

    In which format I save my files?
    Just psd for the photoshop files, and jpg for the web.

    Hmm that's pretty impressive. I'm on CS2, haven't really had any desire to upgrade just yet, especially if it's as different as it supposedly is...

    Really-- .jpg's and .gif's always seem to get kind of pixelated when I save them for the web, and yours don't seem to look like that really. I wonder if I'm just selecting a different type or somehting?

    With jpeg you can set the quality. The higher you set the quality, the bigger the image get. The lower you set it, the smaller the image gets.

    In the old days, the low quality was used for the web. But nowadays everybody has a fast internet connection so people won't bother you user high quality

    Hmm, I thought I'd been selecting high quality but maybe not. As of right now I'm just using .png's, and they seem to be working the best for me right now.

    You're pretty good with highlights and shading. I'm not really a fan of the eyes but the drawings are still amazing as is.
