I major failed

Cheers KBC.

 

[Pranav]

I have an exam on Monday, hence I can't declare the results before that.

Though, I've PM'ed KBC all the information. If he is free, he'll do it before Monday. Otherwise you guys will have to wait for 2 more days.

 

[BKB1991]

Its between Entry 6 & 7 for me.

 

[KBC]

I will put forth the results tomorrow.

 

[KBC]

Sorry for the delay. Thankfully though, My Laptop went for overheat so just when i was about to finalize, it stopped, luckily and very Thankfully!. The next time i did it, Math looked like stars. Corrected lot of mistakes, and wonder over my head why still people call me I'm and will be a good Mathematician.

One answer, God knows.

 

[Gaurav_7]

It seems results are up. Congrats to Pranav. Nice to see me getting some points.

 

[Varun]

My comments on this week for those interested:

Comments : The sig's 4 points come from the comedy value, that's about the only positive here. Well done if that was your intention, but if you put this in as a serious attempt I don't know where to begin on the problems with it.

Comments : The quality of the images used here is rather poor, good stock is important, the avatar is especially bad in this regard. It looks rough and over sharpened. The background on the sig is decent enough, but the placement on top of that is poor. The text and logo are both dull and lacking effect and horribly placed.

Comments : While mostly just a trick of placement and the background, the head in the avatar looks like it is floating. These are okay in that they aren't awful, but they aren't great either. The transparency use in the sig was a bad of a choice as milk on a hot day, and the colour of the background clashes badly with everything. The text is very poor in the sig, while being an okay choice of fonts, the colour and placement is bad.

Comments : The avatar is very good, simple, but enough done to it in terms of effects to give it a bit of life. However the sig isn't as good as it could have been. The idea was great, but there is again the issue of contrast between what are supposed to be supporting effects and the main focus which should have been the centre image of the player. Make it vibrant and stand out. Again, technically brilliant, but lacking in some of the visual elements.

Comments : I love this. The only change I'd make is changing the borders to have to thick lines at the top and bottom, but nothing on the side. Otherwise perfect.

Comments : The avatar is fairly nice, but I'm not liking the sig. A lazy mirror image for starters, just don't make something that wide if you aren't going to usefully fill the space. The background and effects are done well, and there's a good choice of text and colours of the text, but the text is the only spot with some decent contrast, the rest is just overwhelmingly dull blue.

Comments : I don't think the effects used in the avatar really work, something about making grass blue doesn't sit well. I'm sure I've seen someone using a sig almost identical in style to this one, and it just doesn't work. It is yet another example of the problems in building a sig around a choice of a particular background or style and not building on the stock, you get clashes of colour. You've got a blue and white kit, you shouldn't be using brown with that, a metallic grey or blue/grey would have worked much better.

Comments : A very solid entry, not absolutely stand out, but visually effective and well executed. Good work.

Comments : The avatar has let you down here, just a bit dull in terms of colouring. The sig however is brilliant, with only minor issues like the quality of the stock when used the second time a bit bigger in the background, using a different shot there would have helped.

Comments : With the avatar I'd have used a slightly different background colour (or a bit of a light column) so it didn't look like he had no hair. With the sig I can't help but think it is blurred to make it look like the cut was done better than it was. Nothing too horrible here, but not enough done to make it take the leap to where the top entries are at.

 

[drainpipe32]

Hmm cheers Matt. I'll make the change

Gazza added 2 Minutes and 10 Seconds later...

Congrats Pranav
