so I tried this sig. If i did it a week earlier i could have put it in the electric contest. but the 3D one would have kicked my butt along with all the other ones.

Well I work at Spencer Gifts which if you don't know is a GAG store that sells all this crazy stuff. So I get to look at stuff like this all day.
Here's the PSD for you to check out. http://cutter.ship.edu/~icn/blacklight.psd
For the most part it's just a few layers with gradients, a little blur here and there for highlight. Duplicate a few layers to give light on and light off effects. And there always seems to be a dark line that moves across the bulb when it's on so i hid that behind the cloud effect layer. Just take a look at the PSD and lemme know if you have anymore questions.

Thank you for sharing the psd and letting me in on some of the tricks of the trade, MalFunkShun, I really appreciate that.
I usually get told that I should read thisa or that book, but I am a hands-on person - I can read it for years and not learn anything, but if I see it once how it is done I never forget...
this is by far the coolest sig I have seen here in a long time...

Yeah, blacklight sigs rock! I guess with all the meds they keep us on it relaxes the brain to look at them.
Great job on yours... Lookin' good!

I thought I saw another neon (black light) sig in this forum.
Great colors Jung. And I appologize for not being more orignial.
I guess I need to look around spencer's more for new ideas.

Don't even think of ditching that sig MalFunkShun!
Just because Jung made a blacklight sig first doesn't mean you are not being original by coming up with your own spin on the idea.
You are getting sleepy...sleepy. You will go to the North Wing....

MalFunkShun,
I by NO means meant to suggest that you were not original or lacking in a great sig. Personally I think you have a keeper! In fact I think everyone should do a blacklight sig, would be cool! Makes the meds go down great!
Peace,
