Positive
+ I liked the picture of all the senshi together. Then just Usagi missing from it looed great.
Negative
- The composition of this graphic also started nice but the result didn't work. my main problem with this graphic was the choice of font, the first part looks perfect, but the "gone" font was a wrong choice this time. it took me a while to understand what i said, and the "3d" effect of it doesn't look very well because it's too separated of the main font, if it was more close to it, it would have worked better. lastly, the pink part worked well.
- Cursive font used was just a teeny bit hard for me to understand. Example: the letter G in "gone" looked a lot like a capital J in cursive. Quote doesn't really specify who "she" was.

Positive
+ I love the continuous theme to it. There's more than one image that represents Usagi in great ways that has to do with being Angelic. I like the little dash of color to the word Angel, to make the theme pop out even more at you.
+ The animation is a bit fast but I love the pictures and the way the text & the effects all fit the angelic theme.
Negative
- The animation is so quick that the majority of the signature is blurry and you can't see anything. The text would look ok but again it's cycling through so quickly that it's hard to read it.
- Only thing I didn't like was that the animation was a bit too fast to read the quote that was on it.
- I love the animated text, but feel the text moves too fast. needed just a bit more time to read the text.
-because it just seemed as if the transition was a bit to fast. you don't really have enough time to read what it says and you barley have the time to see the images. It's beautiful but I can't really tell if the text or the composition works because I'm more busy trying to see what it says before it transitions to the next image. Maybe if the transition between images was a bit slower it would work a bit better and be easier to read.

Positive
+ Love the "pop out" effect used on the character. Red layer as the character's "shadow" is a nice touch to add more definition.
+ Very aesthetically pleasing. Amazing, advanced use of resources. Every detail has to do with the theme. Clear image. Unique.
+ While it's not SM related, I love the balance and the slight use of color to the photo. The background is perfect.
Negative
- i like the color, but for me the quote is confusing with the picture. this may be because I do not know what show the picture is from- but the quote with the image doesn't make sense for me.
Best Composition
* The textures and brushes surrounding the girl are nice. They're not overpowering at all and don't take away from the girl in the center. Very nice.
* It is a very eye catching siggy and the color detail is minimal but it does create a pop. I just want to stare at this siggy for an hour.
Signature 04
Positive
+ The fact that it's gorgeous is obvious. What stands out to me the most personally is the border. I feel as though that's what really brings the picture together. The use of the gif stands out well for me, too. It's not a typical gif that would be used in a signature, so it was nice to see some variety to it.
+ I love the animation and both pictures of Saturn. The text fit well into the feel of the signature and it all fits together very well.
+ I liked this siggy because of the different roles of saturn presented and the animation is done well and goes with the still aspect of the siggy.
+ I liked four because everything seemed to fit great. The text seemed to fit great with the image and the feel of it. the gif in it was well placed and also really fit the feel of it. I think it was just great all around.
Negative
Best Composition
* Even if it's not B&W perse, i loved the composition of this graphic, it's actually PERFECT <3 the pictures, the phrase and the gif, everything is harmony here, 5 thumbs up =D
*My only problem is the "senshi of silence" font, it doesn't match very well, but the rest, 5 thumbs up.
* I really liked the use of gifs in this one. As well as the writing and how everything goes together so perfectly.
* Love how the whole thing fit together; the animation, the haunting image, and the font chosen for each text.
* Used a ton of resources without being too "busy". Each resource can be related to the theme. The shadow of a person in the background is AWESOME and so appropriate. Absolutely amazing job with using resources to express the theme.
* I think the animation placement, the images used and the color balance is perfect.
Signature 05
Positive
Negative
- I love Charmed, so that's where I like it. Besides that, I don't feel the image represents them truly for who they are. They are strong, independent women who kick demon chibi on a regular basis. Maybe to make it easier, try just focusing on just one sister like Phoebe, Piper, or Paige. The Book of Shadows and the Phrase they use is nice, but they are more than just witches. I like the effort, though. <3
- The aura around the three girls is distracting an the text kinda seems randomly placed.
- The images could be cut more neatly so that the original background doesn't show, and maybe use a less generic font to make it prettier.
- The space feels like it's a little too much, and the fuzzy font really distracts from the whole image.
Best Composition
Signature 06
Positive
+ Excellent positioning of the images and also great pick on same images. i like that the animation is in the back and not part of the main graphic. perfect font, and btw, please share with the wold the name of that font xD but i would loved if you used another color, or maybe a darker grey, because even if (i think) the idea was to make "disappear" the font, i think this time a darker color or maybe a similar color of the yellow "orbs" around venus would be the perfect choice. Something else to add, the background was a perfect choice too, it doesn't pop up that much (even if everything is grey) but blends perfectly with the whole thing <3
+ I liked the gif in this one and the use of one color to make it pop was great. The words and text used looked great.
+ Maker did well to add some small blends of color which doesn't disrupt the overall image. It fits well with the character used and represents her perfectly (since Venus's hair is a gold-yellow color; and so is the back bow on her sailor fuku).
+ I like the use of animation and the overall composition is beautiful.
+ Love the small amount of yellow and the contrast. There isn't much contrast, but there is just enough to match the softness of the photo.
Negative
- because of first the image placement. Where the images and the gif are placed on it to me it made it seem a bit crowded as if there wasn't quit enough room on the siggie itself so they were just put in as close together as they could be. Second would be the placement of the text. the Text itself seems to go with it and I can read the Venus it's big enough but the rest of it I have a hard time reading because it's right on the gif which actually distracts me from the rest of the text. Moving the text might be a good option so that it's a bit easier to read and doesn't really have any distractions around it. other than that it is a really pretty
Best Composition
* i'm just gonna copy-paste some things that i said above.
Excellent positioning of the images and also great pick on same images. i like that the animation is in the back and not part of the main graphic. perfect font, textures, everything <3
*The two different sized images with the gif is just perfect and well balanced.

Positive
+ This graphic is SO MUCH FUN to watch! i fell in love with it the minute i saw it!
let's start with the background, is simple but you can notice a few things that pops up in the right way. next would be the image, i find it so fun! i don't remember very well if the original was like this but, awesome pick =D.
lastly the bokeh texture, great choice, i like how it complements the whole fun part of the image. and what i like the most, is the hint of color it has, you can barely notice and that is a plus for me!
+ Again, really aesthetically pleasing. Creative use of a "burst of color". Good composition.

![[A&G][Contest] LSMS ~ Round 2 ~ RESULTS 008_zps322358d8](https://2img.net/h/i1176.photobucket.com/albums/x330/KousagiCyn/TGC/LSMS/008_zps322358d8.png)
Positive
+ The faded skull on top of Dean's face is cool. Its kinda creepy but then again the subject behind the signature is creepy. The text also fits the signature well. Its not too much but not too little.
Negative
- The composition of this graphic started with an interesting idea but it ended up not very well. the effects on the picture are not making it a favor to the main graphic, it made it look of bad quality, i think if this graphic were with full color it would look much better. the other part that didn't work very well was the choice of font, it doesn't match very well with the whole graphic...or maybe if it was bigger i t would looked much better.
- I didn't like picture used. I don't know why I just didn't like it.
- I didn't care for this one since I feel not much was done to the image. It could have been cute with some color pop to it. The font doesn't really match as well, perhaps a less decorative font since the image it's self has a lot of elements.
Best Composition
* Very cool use of human anatomy (in this case the skull) blended into the sig. You can see it perfectly without it being over bearing.
Signature 09
![[A&G][Contest] LSMS ~ Round 2 ~ RESULTS 009_zps594d0e80](https://2img.net/h/i1176.photobucket.com/albums/x330/KousagiCyn/TGC/LSMS/009_zps594d0e80.jpg)
Positive
Negative
- There doesn't appear to be much depth to the picture. The image was cropped, turned into a grayscale image, then had text written on it. I'd like to see more effort put into it, something that would make it stand out. The text could be over the image in a transparent way while centered to show some uniqueness. Part of the rules said there can be a dash of color, so maybe their eyes could have color to them.
- I didn't like the font used in this one. The picture was great, but the font took me out of it.
- I feel like this didn't follow the theme. It made a regular signature and just turned it black and white for no reason instead of intentionally making a black and white signature. Not a fan of the random font and could have done a lot more with it.
Best Composition
Signature 10
![[A&G][Contest] LSMS ~ Round 2 ~ RESULTS 10_zpsbbd7d50e](https://2img.net/h/i1176.photobucket.com/albums/x330/KousagiCyn/TGC/LSMS/10_zpsbbd7d50e.png)
Positive
+ The pop of red in the text and the siggy pops out and is eye catching.
+ I liked this because I felt the color in the tiara gem, the glove fittings and the text were great and well placed.and it looks like it had some really great cropping in it and everything just seems to fit well here also.
Negative
- The font chosen should have been used in a smaller size to look better, and the overall banner seems a bit too simple for me.
- Would have been a cute signature in color with a different font. Picked a really random part of the picture for their "burst of color" instead of intentionally picking something specific to stand out. Used a pixel font which are meant to be small.
Best Composition
Note: NaoUranus (Sig.5) and Sailor Candy (Sig.2) had the same amount of negative votes, but since Sailor Candy had more positive votes, NaoUranus was eliminated.
Note. Remember that there is gonna be a Comeback Round, so it isn't over just yet!~ ![[A&G][Contest] LSMS ~ Round 2 ~ RESULTS ZBwdsGO](https://i.imgur.com/zBwdsGO.png) & ![[A&G][Contest] LSMS ~ Round 2 ~ RESULTS 9OVQNc7](https://i.imgur.com/9OVQNc7.png) #ag #agtutorial |
