Maxamillian, you are like, teh uber teh! :p
Awesome tutorial. It's very unquie and original. I want to use this as my current, but it looks very much so like yours. And I guess that's a good think by following your tut, but still.
I'll make my own using your... pointers.

Hail MaxPower!

I think it looks different enough.. When its based on a tutorial, its gonna be similar. I didn't have any good brushes so I just googled some of the ones he mentioned ;x
I wish I had used this other photo of the same thing from a slighty different angle ;\
* Aequitas considers doing an anatomy/physiology series.

Le sigh...
"SigsSuck_MaxStyle" Maybe Max can convert you back into the fold.

And that anatomy series would be nice, I am currently failing it. >_<

i really like a lot of those sigs and Aequitas i think the anatomy series with like a sig rotator would be sick
im not lookin to convert, he can still hate sigs and design pictuers.
the sig battle is over as of now so Im just happy that soo many people are tryin my tut

I didn't know about the stroke thing. i just used lines around the text. I think this turned out well. (see current sig). Although I couldn't get it below 70kb without making it a GIF, and seriously reducing the quality. I don't know how you people do it, while still keeping it as a jpeg. Any tips on filesize reduction without quality reduction?

Redid the one from above and did a new one.. I guess I'll do a few more if I can find some more interesting anatomy photos. I like how clean the style is, Max.

yeah like aequitas said...its really clean...its not shrouded by millions of brush strokes like other...unfortunatley it looks like everyone is jumping on the bandwagon...
aequitas+ketchup = trend WhoRe
