I need a new siggy and avatar... what about you?

[craftytam]

I definitely need a new siggy. I probably should put it on my to-do list. Maybe I'll change my avatar after I get a haircut. lol

[Kiana]

Man, now you guys are making me want to do a new siggy, just to create one. rofl

My dog literally hides under the bed when I put on make-up because she knows something major is up since it is such a rare event!

---Are there any general size guidelines?---

I should have NOT read your post while enjoying my margarita.... I did almost spit it out while laughing. Ummmm, I think there are some size guidelines.... let me go hunt them down.... LOL...

Perfecto! Thank You!
(this will be much easier and less painful than putting on make-up! )

Maybe Kiana came up with a fun idea for us all, a siggy exchange? Perhaps we could help each other out by switching things up. Everyone who wants a new signature could sign up, someone could do a random drawing for each person giving them another person's name to make a siggy for in a certain time window, and then we could have a reveal "party" post, where we gift each other with the new siggies?

If this interests anyone, let me know!

I was just going to ask what size to use because I need to update mine

Laura should TOTALLY make up some new ones <3

[HeideC]

I dabbled a bit today but really need to retry

[Tracie Stroud]

I need a new one but just can't make the time to do it.

[justpattyanne]

Well, this has NOT been an easy little foray ...
(I was wrong - make up WOULD have been easier )
Getting the 'png sucker sized down
Figuring out I can use my Google photos for hosting
Figuring out I need bit.ly to get a short enough link

@Esther, I NEEEED some Margaritas now!!!

And I'm STILL not sure that it's going to be in my signature... *drum roll please*

[justpattyanne]

[justpattyanne]

And now, all I can see are those hard lines on the sides -
but I can't possibly dive in again at this point - although I imagine by 4am it will drive me nuts enough to go in again to fix and do all the rest of it too.

Now, I need margaritas, or maybe some straight up tequila - wishing pot was legal in this state.
That "creating for my sanity" is a bit of a stretch right now.

[Lidia G]

Patty Anne, you break me up, LOL!!! Other than the hard lines on the sides I think you've done an amazing job on your siggy! I usually leave mine on a transparent background and use paint, splatter, a transfer or an overlay if I want some texture behind my layers.

I hadn't even seen them until you pointed at them!!!!!! All I saw was how cool it is and those long skinny legs!

you'll notice I labeled it 'my artsy fartsy siggy' <---- in your honor

[justpattyanne]

I couldn't stand it - had to go ahead and do a bit of a hard edge clean up.

It shrunk a lot - WHYYYYYYYYYYYYY?!?! I sized the same.

my head hurts

Oh yes please!
I love making new siggy but it feels like it takes longer making a siggy than a layout so I only make a new one when it's needed (challenge, lol)
so templates would be super awesome!

And for those who need tutorial, I refer to this tutorial from Brook every time I make a new siggy : Siggy Tutorial

Love that picture of you with the sunglasses (although you totally rock it in the avatar with the bits of grey).

Personally, I like using my Bitmoji for my avatars - she's a much cooler version of me and I don't have to worry about doing my makeup or covering my roots (which are horrible right now!)

Esther - love your new siggy!!!

I love my Bitmoji too

[bcgal00]

I need a new siggy too. I love your curls Dalis! I love a coffee theme or maybe a photography theme...need to think a bit about this.

Speaking of putting on makeup, I had a friend in high school whose mom only wore makeup when she wanted to get it on. It was SO traumatic for my friend, lol.

Thank you for posting that! I always make mine way too big and end up trying 5 or 6 times before I get it right.

[SeattleSheri]

I still need to get some more mileage from my avi! ... at my age, I need to milk them for a few years and mine is still new-ish! lol As for my siggy, I've had the same one for YEARS. It's with Misty Cato's Seattle kit and I just can't bring myself to part with it!!!

I've literally not seen this before and I just noticed my current signature is featured ... from 2013!!!! Too funny!! I wonder if I can win a prize for having the same signature for 9 years!!!
