¸·*ˆ¨ ..Advanced Shading.. ¨ˆ*·¸
'.,¸¸„‹´ ¯¨`ˆ*°^^°*ˆ´¨¯ `›„¸¸,.'
This is where shading goes professional. Advanced shading is a wide variety of different techniques from simple shading, which look much better.
Advanced shading usually goes like this:
;;;;;;;;:;;:;:::::::.::.:..... .. . .
See how I "blended" the characters to make it smooth, and not 3-sided like |;;;;;:::::....|?
Just try and gradually ease onto the next character.
This looks very professional and obviously looks much better than normal shading. With advanced shading, there's also a new technique: double shading. This is where you shade from between different waves outward, to the waves. It's hard to explain.
;;;;;:;::::.:... . ¸·*´¨`*·¸ . ...:.::::;:;;;;;
` · › . „ ¸¸¸„.‹´ ..::;;::.. `›.„¸¸¸ „ . ‹ · ´
. . . . . . . . . . . . .^
To do this, you'll need to put your cursor as close to the middle of the waves as possible, as demonstrated:
……………....¸·*´¨`*·¸……………....
` · › . „ ¸¸¸„.‹´ ....|.... `›.„¸¸¸ „ . ‹ · ´
Then you'll need to start deleting one period at a time, constantly alternating the side you take it from. (using both delete and backspace helps) Keep the count of how many you've taken away.
Keep going until a reasonable amount of periods are left (2-4 on each side, 4-8 in total)
……………....¸·*´¨`*·¸……………....
` · › . „ ¸¸¸„.‹´ ... `›.„¸¸¸ „ . ‹ · ´
In this one, I counted six periods. Now we'll replace those with the same amount of colons
( ::: ) on each side, and an equal or larger amount of semi-colons ( ;;; ) in the middle.
……………....¸·*´¨`*·¸……………....
` · › . „ ¸¸¸„.‹´ ..::;;::.. `›.„¸¸¸ „ . ‹ · ´
Since you're now shading AWAY from the waves, do this for the top line too. But since
there are no waves on the sides of the signature, you'll have to shade outwards.

` · › . „ ¸¸¸„.‹´ ..::;;::.. `›.„¸¸¸ „ . ‹ · ´
