Well, I was playing around in Ps and I came up with this.

Ok, the database center problem has been resolved. ;)



UPDATE: (Reflection's Perspective)


UPDATE #2: (Reflection's Perspective)


UPDATE #3: (Reflection's Perspective & Longer Gradient)


UPDATE #4: (Reflection's Perspective Adjusted, 'Floor' Gradient Adjusted, & Text Gradient Adjusted)


I liked it so I set as my desktop background but now I'm thinking of probally submitting it. I was just wondering what you think or if maybe something should be added/modified. Thanks.

The image doesn't work for me.

It... doesn't show up for me.

Aw crap. Yeah, I just realized that. It looks like my site isn't working properly. Can one of ya'll check out my site on your comps to check if it still works? I'm working this out with my host but I think they're having some kind of database center thing problem and doing some maintence stuff so Idk.

ughh...

Yeah it's not working.

Just upload the image to Imageshack.us for now?



Mikeeeeeeeeeeeee. Aw Mike. I need to see some variety from you. It's like, the same colors. Same font. Same..method. Spice it up! I can understand style and how someone does certain things, but they can still have a variety-filled 'folio.

Just, try a different font. Like, Georgia. And go from there.

You can see the image? Uhh...ok.

Yeah, I'm just trying to expierment with some different stuff. I'm just like idea-less right now. *sigh*

Well. I saw the image for like, 2 seconds.

Maybe you should surf some design blogs. Go check out flickr. Gain some new inspiration.

Oh yeah. I haven't been to flickr like in 3 months or something. Thanks.

Let us see the picture, Mike!

Upload that to tinypic! I wanna see it!

Updated. :)

YAY!

I like it. Very simple. What is this for?

Thanks! It's not really for anything. It was just really something I randomly made. *shrugs

It's cool. I think it'd look a lot cooler if you animated it. Like had each number light up.

The mirrored letters look kinda stretched and distorted. And I think the numbers should sort of glow. Like illuminate. Just add like a white drop shadow directly under them. Really cool though! That mirroring effect is underused. I really like it.

Hmm...I'll try that tommorrow. Thanks.



Well, I did add an outer glow but I guess you can't really see it. =\ Also, I tried to make the reflection realistic like as if it were a glass floor, you know? And if you look at a reflection on a glass floor from a distance, the reflection looks kind of squished so yeah...*shrugs Thanks though.

Actually I aggree. Just make the glow brighter. Higher the opacity if its lowered.
Edit: Did you update it? I think the glow doesnt look as good cause it ends kinda sharply. Set it to soft glow. I think you can do that in photo shop. And ditto for the glow beneath.

It might be nice to add some perspective to that reflection. =]

It's nice. You should add a glare to the main font to make the reflection stand out more.

it looks like you scrunched up the reflection. it doesn't look realistic.

Ok, I updated it. :)

make the gradient longer.
like when you do it dont go

Updated.

EDIT:

Added another update. :p

Looks great! But thats not the gradient I meant. I meant the one in the text. Cause it looks like a thing white bar. it needs to be longer.

Hmm...yeah, I just noticed that. I updated it to make it look not so wierd. *shrugs




Oh, ok. Updated. :)

When will we see NEW styles?!

/endrant

It's simple, I'm not fond of the glow.

Still a little hard. Could be softened but still better:)
Great job!

Agreed. I want some colors.
