Would a Guitar Hero guitar be acceptable? That's something I use everyday.

Well here is a WIP of what it may look like. I'm using my terrible GIMP skills to do this. :(

I see I have to compress this a bit more when I save...
Next thing I'll do is try to change the background and maybe do the modification I did to my fret buttons on my Kramer (you'll see).

Yeah that's fine, I'm not going to be strict about it. It's up to you to decide if it's 'handy' or not.

Well it looks as if I won't be able to completely finish my project. I'm on vacation right now so yeah... I'm at a Holiday Inn Express right now and I'm using the free computer with internet they have set up. I have to save the signature I have finished ATM (the one I already posted) more compressed. It's 50.9 KB :( So I'll edit this post with my final entry.

EDIT:

FINAL ENTRY

Well I had to save as a JPEG (dangit!!!) because there's no GIMP here to save the XCF I had as a very compressed PNG. Crap. Still I like it :)

As I said in the chop competition, this thing need to move. Come on guys! By next week if a poll still isn't up, I'll make one, since no one could be bothered. If there's not enough entries, waiting won't solve it. :D :?

I don't think it's a matter of people losing interest or not being bothered, it's a more a matter of people not being here!

NFSUnlimited is pretty dead these days . . . wait for the new game to come out and things might pick up again.

If people want to keep entering this comp then I'll change the closing date in the first post, so go for your life.

Well I hope you have a good idea for the theme. The forum is still dead, you know . . .

Like I said, it might be better to wait for a while.

Hopefully it'll pick up with undercover coming to attract all these users back here.

edit: I would've liked to do better, but I whipped something up at least. Not much time with school. And I need time to do the cover art for the Yr 12 DVD... this sig's quite crap, but meh. Didn't turn out as well as I wanted the idea to.
