This is the poll for the battle between me and ArmedCitizen. Each one of us sent the other a render to use in a Signature. The render I had to use is this and the render ArmedCitizen had to use is this.

The results are these:

Again, a difficult decision by me. But again, Smith_S9's artwork just has that 'coolness' edge over ArmedCitizen's, which is why I like it so much :D

ArmedCitizen's text made me lose alot of apeal for his image. Adding color wouldn't have hurt either.

... the text looks awesome...

though i agree that some colour would made it look better(wouldve made the details stand out) but the focal of the sig was right on and i very enjoyed looking at it.

I prefered ArmedCitizen's, but it could have used at least a bit of colour.

ArmedCitizen is nice, the black and white is a simple and clean look but I find it a bit boring. Also it seems a bit too busy and the "White space." Which is actually black space I think is a bit much. I also think the lighting in the background is also "Too much." Smith_S9 gets my vote. Though in my eyes I probably am wrong but it is not as technically sound as ArmedCitizen. It's a bit grainy and that might be the Graphics Card. The text is harder to read then ArmedCitizen. I think the two things that caught me for your vote is the lighting, flow of the composition and the colors. Nice job overall both of you. :)

How do you make these :confused: :eek:

Do you take a base picture and add effects or are they from scratch?

And I like Smith_S9 because its a calming picture. But Armed you did good :)

Look at the renders they used.

My guess for the top, gardient layres, smudging, wave filiter, smudge/spatter brushes. Bottom one is c4d, lighting, gradients, and I'm drawing the blank on the filter to turn a tiger that way. Lightning stocks, or could've used wave filter on the render.

Actually, I have used no c4ds :p. I don't like to use them. And honest to be, I just played around with nothing in mind. I'm surprised it went that good.

They both are cool, Armed Citizen could use some color but not much. I dunno about that text, thought I think armed got a worse render to deal with IMHO, but maybe that's just me. There is already to much business going on with it possible making adding your own effects more difficult. I think the cartoon style that Smith got already gave him more of an edgy look with coolness factor built in. Anyways those are just my observations but my vote is for Armed probably because he's also the underdog. But Smith's looks cool no doubt.

    So what it really is me trying to implement some kind of better site navigation not change the whole theme of the site
  • Varine Varine:
    How can you tell the difference between real traffic and indexing or AI generation bots?
  • The Helper The Helper:
    The bots will show up as users online in the forum software but they do not show up in my stats tracking. I am sure there are bots in the stats but the way alot of the bots treat the site do not show up on the stats
  • Varine Varine:
    I want to build a filtration system for my 3d printer, and that shit is so much more complicated than I thought it would be
  • Varine Varine:
    Apparently ABS emits styrene particulates which can be like .2 micrometers, which idk if the VOC detectors I have can even catch that
  • Varine Varine:
    Anyway I need to get some of those sensors and two air pressure sensors installed before an after the filters, which I need to figure out how to calculate the necessary pressure for and I have yet to find anything that tells me how to actually do that, just the cfm ratings
  • Varine Varine:
    And then I have to set up an arduino board to read those sensors, which I also don't know very much about but I have a whole bunch of crash course things for that
  • Varine Varine:
    These sensors are also a lot more than I thought they would be. Like 5 to 10 each, idk why but I assumed they would be like 2 dollars
  • Varine Varine:
    Another issue I'm learning is that a lot of the air quality sensors don't work at very high ambient temperatures. I'm planning on heating this enclosure to like 60C or so, and that's the upper limit of their functionality
  • Varine Varine:
    Although I don't know if I need to actually actively heat it or just let the plate and hotend bring the ambient temp to whatever it will, but even then I need to figure out an exfiltration for hot air. I think I kind of know what to do but it's still fucking confusing
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Maybe you could find some of that information from AC tech - like how they detect freon and such
  • Varine Varine:
    That's mostly what I've been looking at
  • Varine Varine:
    I don't think I'm dealing with quite the same pressures though, at the very least its a significantly smaller system. For the time being I'm just going to put together a quick scrubby box though and hope it works good enough to not make my house toxic
  • Varine Varine:
    I mean I don't use this enough to pose any significant danger I don't think, but I would still rather not be throwing styrene all over the air

    I bitch about Xenforo sometimes but it really is full featured you just have to really know what you are doing to get the most out of it.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    It is just not easy to fix styles and customize but it definitely can be done
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I do know this - xenforo dropped the ball by not keeping the vbulletin reputation comments as a feature. The loss of the Reputation comments data when we switched to Xenforo really was the death knell for the site when it came to all the users that left. I know I missed it so much and I got way less interested in the site when that feature was gone and I run the site.
