Thug Poetry is way better imo.

yeah but i suck to do b/w sigs ^^

For a b/w sig its too bright and lacking in effects.

Pro tip:
B/W pretty much equals good texture, effects, flow and not too much brightness since it'll be ruined once BW. Dont focus on the colours at all. Just keep a b/w grad map at the top of your layers so you can see every now and then how it looks in BW, and what to change.

Snudge has a point, dont focus on color.

Just have to say it, I LOVE BLACK AND WHITE!!

Just a small example:


Looks bad because the focus was on colour, smoothness.


Looks much better because the effects were a focus for me. not colours or smoothness.

B/W needs to be crisp, and has to have some parts of the BG that stand out, while not drawing attention away from the focal.
