I have had some great memories of sigs that have been created by some very cool and people, a majority of mine by NoJ,Aqua, though before I met him a good friend of mine  Zeroblank made a few. I have so many but I just picked my favorites.

 

Just now going through my old MXO pics I found a few. Here are some of mine. Aww the memories again.

My first sig ever use.This was early beta when the forum had just gone up and we didnt have access to the game yet. Serenity was made for the RP section. I got the name midnight from her blue suit.

My first sig with my actual name. Zeroblank made this one and the one above it

The rest just upgraded over time

Some of Aqua and Noj's handy work

My personal favorite one

Finally some work by GARU

 

Those are some of my favorites, What are some of yours?

In no particular order:

One of my later sigs and my current one. I felt it captured the creepiness of the Little Lad.

One of my pride and joys. Made from a youtube video. It showed me that despite knowing little to nothing about Photoshop, if you have the dedication to make it happen, it will. Personally, I think it came out great.

What's MxO without Drama? Seriously? This is an image of the day Checksum had a meltdown on the forums. Sorry about that Phi! SMILEY It wasn't anything personal, just calling it like I see it.

Does it really need explaination? But little known fact, I am a photoshop noob and this was the first time I discovered how to add the shadowy background on text so it stands out. What better way to show it off than a cluster eff of Pylons?

This shortlived sig was made by fellow factionmate IR0N who no longer plays. I haven't heard much from him at all recently. I miss the guy. Yes that's me punting IRL. No he didn't get hurt. It was taken after paintballing.

This delightful piece was made by the ever so delightful Meretrix. Made during the Boxers Revolution Part Deux. I never asked her for it and one day it just showed up in my possesion. A gift I will always cherish. Thanks Meretrix. <3. P.S /rose1 /rose2

This sig is homage to one of the most enjoyable moments of my life actually. The time I spent DJing on that show will ALWAYS have a special place in my heart. Despite the lag, I tried my best to report the Live Event News as best I could. And it got me a chance to interview Walrus and to meet some very awesome people (TxTurbo and his Wife Rachel. I can't even remember her RSI's anymore). Of course RedLynk as well.

During my early stints as a member of FH's Naked Punt Squad. Most of the squad stopped going naked for fun and wore clothes for teh srs pvpz, I rode it out and had plenty of fun killing people off and of course pissing them off because they couldn't kill a naked man. Good times. Also one of my EARLIEST WORKS. I believe this is the second signature I photoshopped.

No Mave Signature catalog is complete without this signature. The sig to start it all. My MxO Clothing Balance signature. I do believe this is the FIRST signature I completed that I kept. I had one a long time ago with a small animation with Neji from Naruto on it, but that's long gone. This idea was originally spawned by boredom which led to deep thought. And yes, I do own a pair of heart boxers for the record. SMILEY

This is a signature made by the one and only Aquatium. Part of his FH Profile Series (Harry Potter Collectable Card Edition), I proudly wore this signature for a long time. It's been one of my favorites of course. The first sig I ever got with an FH tag I believe.

 

That was a handful. I think I'll post some more when I find them. I gotta dig through my external to see if it's secretly stashed somewhere.

All my sigs to date:

Very first sig ever, pretty much my first time editting images.

Version 2, figured the blue was more "Cloudy" and added the Omega after having joined The Omega Syndicate. Also just noticed the slight darker edging to the whole thing, dunno why I did that, lol.

Figured out I could add textures to text (wowzers!) so played around with that, I'd levelled up so added that too (xD) and a link to the OS' website (still up btw, where we intend to carry on as a multi-platform faction)

First time trying something a little different, changed the fonts (think this may have been my first time using dafont.com) and discovered transparency.

Added the wolf, took away the level (in an attempt to 'tidy' it), changed the OS font again and added a cool effect to the omega I discovered in my photo editting package of the day (think this was probably paint shop pro at the time)

My brother, Asurik (handle, not real name xD), had been playing around with animated sigs for his Guild Wars characters so I asked him to knock me up a light. Also took away the code in another attempt at tidiness. I remember envying simplistic sigs of the day, which always seemed more professional than my own. Also toyed with the idea of a character slogan, which was actually derived from a line on my ye olde family crest.

One I ran with for a while just to try and make people double take on the name, lol.

Finally got annoyed with the old sig and how it was just changing bit by bit. Went about a total redesign focusing on simplicity and with a combination of two fonts, one 'posh' and one 'edgy' to try and bring across a bit of my character's personality. Rare was pimping the black/white scene back then so thought I'd go with that. Theres also a slight omega symbol on the right, some monitors display it fine, some don't, some you need to view at a certain angle and jazz. Always found hiding stuff fun. Also not as long as the previous versions, initally to try and just make it classier but ultimately came in handy adding links.

Oh and various special occasion versions:

And a previously unreleased version made by a mate at college:

My very first sig when I registed for the forums back in Feb 2004:




Another that I used shortly afterwards:



My first and only gif sig used while in beta:



Sig made once the NDA for Beta ended and we could reveal ourselves:



Sig created to showcase my (at the time) 2 characters:

One of my more recent ones that I used for a while:


My most recent signature conveying my thoughts on how our game has been treated:




And lastly, a little something for Midnight.  A souvenior from the good old days!

I don't really have any favorites from my limited collection, but I always loved HCFrog's old sig (I saved it a long while ago):

hmm lets see... trying to go from earliest to most recent, but also in no paticular order...

 

<-- have to say one of my favs, just very unique

 

If I may say so, I think I have had the prievilage of having one of the coolest sig collections ever, mostly thanks to the MxO community. Thankyou to those peeps, and you know who you are.
