Sig Of The Week 12 - Cyberpunk!

INTRO

IMPORTANT RULE:Seriously though, when you're going to vote for a sig, you need to write more than a sentence. Try to at least write a decent paragraph if possible. End of story.

Also, usernames in your signatures are now optional. Anybody can slap a username on a signature someone else made, or photoshop out someone else's signature and put in their own.

ENTRY RULES

- The sig/tag must be somehow related to this weeks theme.

- Sigs may not exceed over 450(w)x250(h).

- No sigs that you made 30 days ago or older that just happens to fit the theme.

- Animated GIF file size wont be limited, although, use common sense, no 10min long animations or anything like that

- Sigs are due every TUESDAY AT 11:59 EST by posting in this topic, or e-mailing them to thescarletorder at gmail dot com (no exceptions)

- Hosts have a right to deny entries for reasons not listed above, if it so happens that you think your entry is denied without fairness, please take the problem up with me.


VOTING RULES

- You cannot vote for yourself.


- When VOTING, please state [b]"I vote for _____, because _______." This is used to determine how you vote. If your vote is based on just your favorite character or franchise, your vote will be denied. Please vote based on your favorite design and/or style. Please try to be descriptive as possible.

- Votes simply based on sexual themes or similar themes shall be denied, as well as votes based on favorite game and character. We're voting on DESIGNS not which character is the hottest/coolest.[/b]


- Hosts have a right to deny votes for reasons not listed above, if it so happens that you think your vote is denied without fairness, please take the problem up with me.

GENERAL RULES

- Be a fair competitor, do no flame upon other competitor or contest host just because your entry did not get enough votes

- Rules are always subject to change without notice.



TIMELINE

- Voting period starts as soon as I repost all entries in this post, Friday 11:59 PM EST is the cutoff.

- Voting period ends on Saturday and winner(s) is/are announced.

- New themes start on Saturday.

- Timeline is always subject to change without notice.


DESCRIPTION
This is brought to you all by Indomitus. Basically the idea is to cyberpunk it up. For those not familiar with cyberpunk...
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyber_punk

Wikipedia wrote:
"Cyberpunk is a science fiction genre noted for its focus on "high tech and low life." The name is derived from cybernetics and punk and was originally coined by Bruce Bethke as the title of his short story "Cyberpunk," published in 1983, although the style was popularized well before its publication by editor Gardner Dozois. It features advanced science, such as information technology and cybernetics, coupled with a degree of breakdown or radical change in the social order."


Just incorporate a cyberpunk feel or look to your sigs and/or include renders/backgrounds from cyberpunk related things. The grittier and dirtier it is, the more cyberpunk it'll feel/look.

Ideas:
Shadowrun
Necromunda
Snatcher
Final Fantasy 6
Final Fantasy 7
Blade Runner
Matrix
Megazone 23
Ghost in the Shell
Akira
Ergo Proxy
System Shock
Deus Ex

In short though:

Cyberpunk is a futuristic thing in a really 'unclean' world, and usually has a heavy focus on technology.

Hmmm. The idea I think the idea that I have is Cyberpunk but it doesn't seem to be listed as so on Wikipedia but its a gritty futuristic title. I'll go for it anyway but I might have a backup sig just in case

Snake91, while Cowboy Bebop is on the list, it's not really 100% cyberpunkish or anything, but I'll let it slide 'cuz it's on the wikipedia list I gave. :)

Just stating for general stating that I'm surprised Cowboy Bebop was even mentioned considering how much MORE of a space drama or 'western' it feels like.

well although the main focus isn't on "cyberpunkish" themes, It still matches the description IMO
