[Bjerkeng]

The theme is challenging, but i kind of like it. I want to try somehting big this time ^^

[Faded]

Thats not really a typography blachex

[orangepig]

Typography is an art piece with text as focal, so imo yeh..

[Faded]

Typography is text AS art, so imo not really

I love the theme. For once something original :) I'll give it a try, not sure if I can do this though.

[24des]

Typographic is a graphic created by text and text effects, nothing like woods or such.


although its a challenging theme as said above, not sure if I'd partipicate. I ain't got that amount of creativitation to apartipicate.

[blachex12]

ok, I will make another signature.

[orangepig]

Just out of curiosity, why does your signature say SOTW 43, Anthuun?

It says SOTW #54, it's just the thing in the middle saying 43. It was ment to be 54 but cause of a typing fail it became 43 and i thought "meh, what the heck"

EDIT: Arharhar, ulta fail, just noticed it said 43 inside the 43 as well xD oh gawd, better change that.

[Faded]

Good theme but doesn't seem popular =(

[Anthuun]

So you aren't putting up voting?

[24des]

Orangepig, that's not a typography.

[Faded]

Well I put the voting up, but honestly theres only one good sig that's typography =[

We need themes that people can relate to, although these are good themes choices for known artists

GL to the submitters

[orangepig]

"IF" I were voting, It would be blachex12, considering his is the only one that fully fits the theme.

Just my opinion.

I just don't know what you have against me trying to stop me from winning this SOTW, obiously your intention was to affect peoples opinion which you did. As a SOTW host thats not very appropriate and also my signature is actually typography..

This is just from a google search of "typography", Do I need to link more?

[Hydroxis]

blachex his is TRUE typography... orangepig keep thinking faded is just out to make you loose....

not just a boring text effect...

Faded's actions are saying that he wants Orangepig to loose. Probably because of the reward.

Can you define what's the difference between a true typography and false typography?

[Faded]

[Faded]

Bleh. Fucking kids christ.

[QQrofl]

As a host Faded, you shouldn't be allowed to vote.

Orangepig


Faded wants you to bite him.

[Hydroxis]

Faded wants you to bite him.

I would not even spit on him.

[orangepig]

I still think we should have anonymous SOTW entries.
It's amazing how a signature that followed a basic tutorial can win.

He used same thing by using the text as a background? I think you need to stfu because all you do is bitch and moan. And your sig is just the text effect in your avy with a few modifications so shh...

edit: If you don't like how the sotw is ran stop participating and go to another sotw in another forum...

[orangepig]

Since I'm not the only one complaining I think that the SOTW lacks something and instead of just running away I'm trying to come up with ideas that might improve the competition. I can't see why I should "shut the fuck up" when I'm only trying to help.
