    NOSTALGIA
    This was a theme done a while back and I loved the idea so I'm bringing it back. Basically, interpret this how you wish but if you could write a sentence explaining why you chose what you did then that would be brilliant.
    If you don't know what Nostalgia is then here's a definition: A sentimental longing for the past, typically for a period or place with happy personal associations.
    Happy sigging!

    Basically chose Riku's outfit from The Grid to encompass the nostalgic feel that Tron has in general. Also, KH makes me feel just a bit nostalgic seeing as how it set me on the path that I'm walking today + this is a KH fansite and all. <3

    It's just, everything I watched when I was younger, I was almost crying due to nostalgia when making this.

    But for real, I grew up with Pokemon and it was literally one of the only things I can look back at my childhood and be happy about and even smile. As lame as this probably sounds, Pokemon is something that makes me who I am like many other things but wow, until this day as I continue
    to grow up with it. Adventures with Dinny and Sischu all the way !

    My brother and I used to play
    Breath of Fire 3 a lot, first RPG I remember getting into in fact. And to lay it on thick the scene depicted is among the most nostalgic inside of the story.

    Gorgeous colours! I am in love with the colours. All the blue-ish hues then being complimented by the yellow/creams but still having the contrast with the pinks! Hooray for colours! A lot is going on though, which gets me lost in the piece rather than having my eyes flow through its composition. It gets a little confusing here and there but overall, this is still heaps loads of lovely and stunning!

    More lovely colour-combos! I am a sucker for colour hehehe. I actually really like your main stock image, something about it is really smooth and I like its composition. Plus, it's simple but it works. Maybe you could have played a little bit more with textures or the text - but overall, I really like it! c:

    I swear I can pick out some memories of my own childhood from the panels of the different cartoons and shows! This is very nostalgic indeed - and kudos to adding all of those images in one signature!

    I love everything about this signature and really smiled when I saw it because I literally grew up with pokemon. The colours are very nice to look at and Pikachu's face is just so adorable ^_^

    I really like the colours on this one too, and your reasoning for choosing Riku from the grid is a good one because of your nostalgic feelings for Tron in general.

    3. Mixt
    Although I personally have never heard of Breath of Fire I really love the colours and the use of text on this one. I love how "power" is the same colour as their outfit ^_^

    Dinny ~ asfsdhfjaksdhfasd Pikachu is my bro too! <3 I absolutely love the colors and that text is so simple and yet so kawaii...

    Mixt ~ I've never heard of Breath of Fire either, but the colors work well together and I personally like your inclusion of the sprite in the background.

    cstar777 ~ Everything in this sig is from something I used to watch; you've just hit me with the biggest nostalgia bomb ;-;
    the black and white is cool and it really helps convey the sense of time that's passed since a lot of these shows were big

    This is a rather hard choice, I like them all but they are all different styles. But here we go

    1. Dinny ~ It is well balanced with good flow and focus. My biggest issue with that the shadow of Picachu gives a bit of depth to image but it makes Picachu himself look really flat.

    2. Cat~ ~ I like the concept but the flow didn't work for me, I start at the pink orb and follow the light up and to the right. Riku himself just seems somewhat isolated if that makes sense. Text was wonderful though

    3. cstar7777 ~ I feel like this one fit the theme of nostalgia best, but I feel like there is too much going on for a sig. Perhaps as a full tag where you had room to mess with textures or something as well it might work better.
