I'm with mbridge on this one. I'd almost be tempted to give it a negative score since it also just cries out for the bottom font to match the top. It just looks too much like everything else minimal. It really reminds me of K10K which has now (at least before they disappeared) become such a dull p.o.s. that it's hardly worth the bother of the bandwidth.

But then again, my .sig isn't that original, and I've never changed it for anyone. .Sigs are kind of do what you like. Of course you asked for a critique, and you got one.

I agree with Eyezaer. I think its cool....Change the font on the bottom to the same as the one up top (beatbox sint it?) and then toss out the blue and make it transperant. Also make it a little smaller and I think it would be killer! But thats just my 2 cents.

i wanna redo what i said earlier...

i like the contrast between the steel blue and the black, plus the white font with the black outline goes decent with it.

i'd make the whole thing smaller in height though, change the bottom font.. and the bottom quote really does bug me.

but hey, it's actually not that bad, okay?

Sh*t! Remind me never to mention Australia in here again! Started off the biggest Aussie saying thing I've ever seen. Good story: Famous Australia Explorer, Dick Smith, recently got pissed off that most of the products sold in Australia are made over seas, and so brought out his own brand of alot of products, so now we have dick cheese, dick-mite, dick-jam, dick-butter, dick-sauces, and dickheads matches (renamed Australian brand of matches, redheads). Oh well.
