SOTW 81: Mysterious!
 

Theme: Mysterious!
Description: Like ancient texts, many things in this world can be mysterious. Among those things falls the reason why my Photoshop won't boot. In case your wondering, that was done with MSPaint. Oh yeah. Anyways, mysterious... Can be characters that were mysterious, places, languages, w/e. Go wild.
Due Date: Sunday, 10PM, CST.

BRING IT!

(Begins plotting to reincarnate the master-sig)

I'm going by the dictionary definition for mysterious here, so I presume most abstract art would be mysterious as it's difficult to comprehend? Or just an air of mystery... goddamn my interpretative skills!

^ ... that, is amazing!

You don't actually have to limit the sig to that size though, that's only for the AP version (Although it has to be made anyway).
The actual limits are 500x200, and it's usually recommended to post in png format.

Although with a sig like that you definitely (EDIT) won't want to make another one!
You've captured the theme perfectly.

Yes to all!

Thank you so much! :) I thought about making it bigger, but I really wanted to just capture her smirk behind the fan, which to me is mysterious (although Yuuko herself is a very mysterious character...). I have the .PSD file, should I re-save the image as .PNG, or just leave it as it is for this contest?

Whichever is fine. You have to submit one in that format, but, if that isn't the size you really want/too small of a file size, you can submit that one in addition to the AP format.

I'm happy with the dimensions of the sig, and I think it will have to stay in .JPEG format because Photoshop just decided that it's not in the mood to let me save anything as .PNG. If I REALLY need the .PNG file, I'll have to try and do it when PS is in a better mood. If not, I'll just say that the one I uploaded above is my final entry. :)

(Am I making sense? I kind of feel like I'm jumbling my words. I'm tired. -.-)

As long as the .jpg is under 50kb, you're good to go.
