    Crappy effects that have nothing to do with each other, no lighting, can't read text for shits, colors don't work at all together.

    I made the text so you couldn't read it, and I'm fairly sure black and red go w/ each other.

    Thanks for your comment though, I made it just for fun, so I was kind of expecting comments like this.

    That means it's useless text. Next, what's with that yellowish-orange designs in the back? More crap. Also, black and red? Fine. There's no lighting WHATSOEVER at all though, so it turns bad.

    Trust me, if I added lighting effects, it would look even crappier. But thanks for the comments <3

    And the text was there, just for me, because I find it inspirational :3

    If this is your first its ok.

    But if u r "experienced" than its terrible.

    No lighting, text is shit, shitty text placement.

    The background is like Chinese, and the chick is like white and a slut. Thats just the gist of it.

    The black on your render isn't exactly black. I bet if you increased the contrast on the render or just brought up the levels of the black it would look better. The blood red is just kind of disturbing. B+R do go together but just don't work in this sig.
