Just made my first signature/banner/which-a-mah-call-it couple seconds ago. Pretty proud on how it turned out, but still probably would need a bit of dusting up on bits and pieces..

Image
Im sure you're all familier with Davy Jones, but what about the song?

The Song was sung by Maestro Forte(Tim Curry) from the Disney Movie "Beauty and the Beast: The Enchanted Christmas" after listening to the song on YouTube a couple times, i thought it kinda went good with Davy Jones. Better Yet, the Character Forte is a Pipe Organ. The name of the Song? Dont fall in love.

For those who have a bit of trouble reading the lyrics due to the color, here is what it says..

The quickest way
To break your heart
Make you depressed and ill

Dont fall in love

I love that song! Tim Curry is amazing... :D And now it's going to be stuck in my head for the rest of the day :P

It does fit Davy Jones, now that I think about it...good call and nice job.

It is a pretty cool song. My favorite one though is probably the "as long as there's Christmas" one. It's so pretty. And good first banner! What program are you using?

Thanks, im glad you liked it! :)

As for what program im using? GIMP. Still a little new to the options so im still trying to get the hang of the stuff. :P

Decided to try my hand at making yet another little picture. Not as good as the first though(Needs a little dusting up)
Another Character, another Song.

Image

As im sure, not many are very familier with this new character. You could say he's a mix of Barbossa and Davy Jones(Barbossa/Davy Jones Wannabe..)

This new character is called Jolly Roger, who is pretty much the main villain in Pirates of the Caribbean Online. Basicly he wanted a seat in the Pirates Brethren Court, but Jack Sparrow got the spot instead. Jolly Roger then formed a conspiracy with a Voodoo Witchdoctor to win Jack Sparrow's piece of eight in a game of poker. However, Jack won and Jolly Roger killed the voodoo witchdoctor and was cursed and was after Jack Sparrow for revenge ever since.

Surely it wouldn't make much sense if he was saying "Simba's dying gasp, his daughter squealing in my grasp and his lionesses mournful cry." so i tweaked the lyrics a little to make it seem fitting for the character. The Lyrics are from another Disney Movie, this time it's "The Lion King: Simba's Pride" the song is sung by another Disney Villain called Zira(Suzanne Pleshette) the name of the song? My Lullaby.

Ahh... PotC Online... I haven't been on there for the longest time.. mainly because it always freezes up on me and then I've got to shut down the computer. But I'm very familiar with Jolly Roger. ;-) Nice banners, btw! I love the new lyrics on the JR one. <3

Really? :blink: All this time i thought i was the only person that played POTCO on here! :tongue:
Haven't been playing in a while? You gotta go on and try the new Invasions on Port Royal, (Currently) Tortuga and (Soon)Padres Del Fuego. They are fun! :) You even get to battle Jolly Roger in the Invasions! I should show ya the one screenshot i got during one of those Invasions.. :tongue:

However, that conversation shall be saved for another thread. I come forth with another picture!

Image
I still think the Davy Jones one turned out better, but this one turned out alot better then the other Jolly Roger one.. Just not really happy with the location of the letters. :confused: But hey! I actually found out how to fuze the other Jolly Roger picture into the moon! :D

EDIT: And unfortunately, there is this long white stripe sticking out on the far left.. :confused: But that should be easy to fix! :bye:

Still haven't fixed that unusual white stripe in the above banner. But i come forth with another Disney Villain Banner! This time though, it comes with no lyrics from any other Evil Disney Villain songs.


Image


Funny story with this one. After doing the two previous banners, i was gonna do another one but with Forte and/or Zira, but i couldn't get the right screenshots plus i was still new. Fast forward through time, and im pretty proud on how this one turned out! Maleficent, probably my favoritest villain of them all. Bow down, Sauron. For the Mistress of all Evil has come! Im really hoping to do either a Witch-King or Gothmog banner next, sadly it's most likely gonna be Gothmog. Worse comes to worse, it might end up being another disney villain.. Or a Star Wars villain *Cough*Grievous*Cough*

Goof-ups. I know, there are a couple white spots mostly near Maleficent's horn and between Diablo's Wing-Feathers. :confused: Plus i'll probably shrink the image a bit so that it's not to big. :confused:

Nice work. Actually, it's kinda funny 'cause it really seems like we have similar tastes... pirates, Disney movies, ect. :lol: Anyway, your descriptions after each banner is cool/unique. Gives insight on the graphic itself/your inspiration for it.

Cool. :D

Really? Cool! There's alot of other stuff im into: Kingdom Hearts, Final Fantasy, Spyro, Crash Bandicoot, Star Wars, Harry Potter, Drakengard, Silent Hill, Resident Evil, Castlevania, you name it! Highly doubt the forum would want me to put a banner with, say.. The Forgotten One(Castlevania: Lament of Innocence) on it :confused: Ah well..

Remember me saying something along the lines of posting either a Witch-King or a Gothmog banner next? Well, Witch-King it is! :blush:


Image


I've got different thoughts about this one. Im both very proud but at the same time kinda iffy with this one. I wanted to try and expirament on the coloring of the picture. Im happy with the colors, but im sure i could have done better(still new with these things :P). Im happy with the size. The text? Im not sure if that is the right text to use or if i should have used a better text.. :blush:

Alright, i admit.. I've been in the mood for watching the disney movie "The Black Cauldron" for a while now, and decided to make a banner with the main villain on it.. What's up with it though? He's not even one of my all-time favorite characters! But he is in my Favorite Character/Villains list somewhere, just dont know where.. Just didn't expect to do a banner of him. :confused: Where are all the LOTR-Related Banners?? :confused:

Image

The movie he's from isn't really populer, but that does not explain why the villain appears on a Disney Villain's Beach Towel(but he's missing from the D-Villains Mug.. Creeper's there instead.. :confused:)

Ladies and Gentlemen, i present to you with a banner of the Horned King that i had decided to do because i couldn't think of anyone else to do a banner of! Plus im in the mood in watching the Black Cauldron..

More Expiramentation! I had no clue on what tools to use and even if i found the right tools i would have no clue on how to use them.. So i used the Eraser! Actually worked pretty good.. :) Another funny thing is this: Where is Creeper? He's usually taking up part of the picture on the far right! Well, guess he wasn't taking up that much room, but it would look weird with him in it so i had to draw him out..



Random Fun slightly LOTR-Related Trivia about the Voice Actor..

By Golly Aragorn! What happened to you!? :bye: Not long ago, i had found out that John Hurt, the one who voiced the Horned King had also done Aragorn's voice in the feared Bakshi Cartoon version of Lord of the Rings.. He also inspired the appearence of Gothmog due to his role as the Elephant Man. And was also in two movies with an actor from Lord of the Rings: Alian(Ian Holm) and The Field(Sean Bean). He is currently selling wands to young wizards in the Harry Potter movies as Ollivander..

Alright, enough of that, i fear my post has been long enough. Enjoy! :p

tehehe inspiration can be so random, but from the looks of your new banner it worked out really well!!!

Using the eraser turned out great!! Its given your banner a really ghostly effect, its super creepy!!!

Wow I never knew John Hurt was aragorn in the Bakshi film, I suppose thats one tiny redeeming feature of that awful version!!! He is a great voice actor though ( the Great Dragon in Merlin is one of the most annoying characters, but his voice makes up for it!)- I never knew he was so connected to LotR. I also never knew Tim Curry was in the BatB sequel lol!!! Awesome!

Yay! Thanks Lembas, glad you like it :) Speaking of Tim Curry and the Beauty and the Beast Sequel..



Image
After my success with using the eraser tool on the Horned King, i decided i was ready and i went ahead and made a Maestro Forte Banner! Again, used the Eraser tool, and also used it on the text. :)

Fun Fact
I had joined yet another forum, disney this time, and decided to try and make a "Forum Theme". I decided the Forum Theme was going to be Maestro Forte. So i gathered a few Forte pictures from Youtube, edited them a little and decided i would make a signature version. This image that you see here is the banner on the Forum Theme except this image doesn't have the name of the forum on it and is actually a bit smaller.

Enjoy :bye2: :)

I love Tim Curry. So much. He even makes an organ amazing. I mean, how awesome can a person be? And really nice job with the blending on that!
