3th? lol
Hmm...this is gonna be tough...
Eleven's signature is colorful; the colors are crisp and bold. The font is appropriate and the text says quite a lot. The white color of the text has enough contrast with the majority of the picture to be read-able, but its still hard on the eyes. It took me a while to notice the infinite symbol behind the "infinite," it would be a little better if there was more contrast between that and the girl's clothing. But there is too much going on in the picture...and its really hard to make out what the individual things are either. (The only things I can recognize are the girl and a broken clock...er...at least I hope its a clock). For everything you add, theres always gonna be a way to mess it up; complexity may not always be the best thing. Then again, too simplistic also ruins a picture. Overall your sig is still awesome.
Hijiko: Charming, simple, and easy on the eyes. It doesn't say much, but it does bring back quite a lot of memories. Since I've always lived in a small town, I'm naturally attracted to rural scenery. I've also never seen a winter without snow, so that brings back lots of good things from the past. The text both contrasts and blends well with the background. Orange is the direct opposite of blue, and yet the outside of the text has been smoothed out, making the text stand out and be easy on the eyes. The problem is mainly the guy and the girl. Taking a closer look, I can see that the picture wasn't cleanly cut out; the guy's hair has some "stuff" on it, and the white residue on the far right tells me that you didn't use the pen tool (tsk tsk tsk...). But that can be easily fixed with the good 'ol eraser ^_^.
Its a really hard choice, but I'll have to give my vote to Hijiko. I guess its because I've always favored more simplistic designs...

Wow I llike both so much (in fact it's my personal favorites)
I like the Hijiko's cuteness in the sig. Also...
I really appreciate artwork the idea (with the broken clock) in Eleven's sig
Hmm... ahh what the heck. It seems Eleven put in way more work in his sig than Hijiko's
So I'll go with Eleven

uh oh looks like i've been caught :P, i use the magic wand (yes the magic wand not the pen T__T) cuz the background in which the characters were on was white so it was simplier for me (cuz i'm a noob at photoshop >__<). I thought i did enough cleaning using brushes, o well ^__^. Not bad for being the first (incomplete) sig ever made by me, still have to add the 3 person in and play around with photoshop some after i get all this uni stuff out of the way @__@.
I voted for eleven, cuz i generally dun like voting for myself, and i think eleven did a nice job with his sig. Like the colours as they match each other very well. uhh.. can't really think of n e more atm... head hurts ~__~
edit: now that i looked into it (through massive zoom) i remember that there wasn't n e white stuff from bad cut, it's just the light reflecting off his hair >__<. hmm.... gotta fix that, lol thx tofuman for pointing that out XD
I just like the combination of colors which was used in Eleven's sig,and overall quality of design is rather better than in Hijiko's sig,besides I liked always red colors:p
As for Hijiko's sig it's rather incomplete,I miss a border there and maybe I would use different colors for character's blending,I would use similiar color for text and blending,but that's my opinion.
In overall I like both sigs,but my vote goes to Eleven's sig.

They're both very good, but my vote ultimately went to eleven's. It just has a more polished feel to it. While I like Hijiko's as well, the lack of a border and the fact that the foreground image's contrast isn't as sharp as the background (looks sort of faded) makes it feel a little unfinished. Other than that, there isn't' anything bad I can say about it ^^.
Voted for Eleven. I loved Hijiko's sig, but...Eleven's BG and scan\render\whatever just matches too well and looks really appealing. Only thing I didn't like was the text used. Hijiko's text IMO is way better looking and matches well.

Hijiko's sig has this dreamy feeling to it which is cool.. but I voted for 11 in the end, its just more.. colourful.
Sorry Hijiko.

I voted for Hijiko. I just prefer the simplistic design, elevens is a bit too cluttered for my taste. Still, both are excellent sigs.
