Hi Tenors, your waves are definitely unique, and with some tweaking can look great. However, I think you might benefit from looking at this guide on page 2, “Balancing Low, Mid, and High Symbols”. Your waves look neat, but unfortunately lack the flow that waves should have. Here, I will demonstrate.
¸„‹›“¯¯¯“‹›„¸¸„‹›“¯¯¯“‹›„¸¸„‹›“¯¯¯“‹›„¸ This is probably your best wave, but there is still some unbalance. Using the same character more than once in a row often detracts from the overall flow. You should try to use different symbols that are close in height, but still at a different height.
‹› // you may want to change this to ‹^
“¯¯¯“ // ¯ is a tricky symbol to use, and still maintain flow. (Especially since the font change) I would avoid it for now. Instead you could use *”ˆ“* Or some other variation.
Also you may want to add another ¸ or a period Or both
And the end result:
¸„.‹^*”ˆ“*^›.„¸¸¸„.‹^*”ˆ“*^›.„¸¸¸„.‹^*”ˆ“*^›.„¸
See how that flows smoothly up and down.
Try to tweak your other waves so that they flow, and are balanced throughout.

My membership is going to run out for a while, and I don't think f2p are allowed to post atm. Will try to get it back asap.
Ruby, I am going to make you a student teacher. In order to become a teacher, you really need to have mastered the material up through the third year. While you are a great artist with lots of potential, I'm afraid you lack experience in certain areas. That being said, you are not far off at all, and if you wanted to become a student you could reach the rank of teacher easily.

Actually there was a glitch just a few weeks ago that made F2P unable to post. They said that there was going to look into getting it fixed, but I don't believe it is yet.
Ruby, your application is accepted. I'll let Nop place you, but in the meantime please make me a two-lined signature with the text,
(c)¸,•°'´`'°•, „¤”“¤„ ,•°'´`'I want to be'´`'°•, „¤”“¤„ ,•°'´`'°•,¸
(c)`“¤„¸¸„¤”´ ‘·,¸¸,' “¤„¸ 'the very best' ¸„¤” ',¸¸,·’ `“¤„¸¸„¤”´
This is a nice little two liner.
Couple things that are borderline preference, but when put together detract a bit from the signature. I'm not a huge fan of using , and „ for transitions unless its a very thin signature. I would try to use ¸ more often than not.
¤”“¤ Missing some mid height symbols. ¤°”“°¤ maybe?
¸¸„¤”´ When transitioning, as a general rule the steeper the smoother. Try not to level off right before transitioning. ¸¸„¤” Maybe, or. ¸¸„¤*
‘·,¸¸,' Maybe ‘· ,¸¸,'
As your next assignment try to fix the censor issue without using (c)
Try changing letters to clean/messy/leet.
Most 2-liners I make are supposed to look like two waves criss-crossing eachother, but I agree with you; the flowing doesn't look tip-top. I'll try to practice that.
Nice job, for your next assignment please make a four lined signature without any text. Just make one long flowing wave that transitions through all four lines. Don't use strikethroughs, and make it unaligned (means that it is not mirrored). Focus on your flow, and making each transition as clean as possible. Try to use different transitions each time, but don't go outside your comfort zone.
