So, Josh/PityOnMurtagh has been bugging me to post these. So, here are a few! I have around six or seven, because I get extremely bored and make them.

Flame render + District 9 text + Century Gothic text. I don't admit to having any skill, because frankly I do not know anything about GIMP, period. Which is kind of sad, since it's been on my computer for years now.

So, here are my latest:

YEAAAAA MAN. I'm like that Chicago song. I'm the inspiration. XD

I really was gonna post them if you didn't too.

Anyways, taking them for what they're worth, they're really great. Flows well. I'm not sure of what you did, but I like them.

Black background: Bucket tool.
White background: I make it my default.

Colors are from gradients (easy to find on GIMP).

The renders are filters > renders > nature > flame.

They are a bit pixely....

Go to planetrenders.nert. It has some lovely fractal renders.

You started by screwing around with the flame render function on GIMP? xD

I'm so useless I can't do anything but add text. D:

Kinda, but my first sig was with a fractal render like yours.

here it is

Haha, nice. I made the renders via a program on GIMP - and in fact, I don't even know how to edit photos on GIMP. Literally. The only thing I've done so far is experiment with the smudge and the burn/lighten tools.

Which became this:



I like it. xD.

That's exactly what I started doing. Smudging, copying and dodge/burning.

I'm getting... Some skill at borders now. (BORDERING SHOULDN'T COUNT TO ME AS A SKILL. D: It still does anyway. XD.)

First attempt at a border:


Second attempt:


Third attempt:


And, last attempt:


Oh, and this came up along the way, I don't know what I was doing with this:


And a sig I plan to add a border to:

put em on black backgrounds. It makes them so much better. Also, I'd say use ones from planetrenders rather than from Gimp, they are better.

I just use random and many layers of rendering (Takes a long time with the high res method I use that yields better results even when it is downsized later)

No antialising (That is what the method I use accomplishes essentialy)

An example. (Dragon isn't mine; flames are mine; Rendered at I think 2000x2000)

You do know that this is about James's tags, and his mad skillz, right? Not how you do yours.

Pala's Right on both accounts. Putting them on black backgrounds make them look much better. And the fractals from Planet Renders are BLARGHING awesome. I'd use them if I were you.


HEY! Where are the ones with me on them?
