Twinkle - Oblique? I need a dictionary before I do this job again. <__< At first I thought it said opaque, and realised that my glasses needed cleaning.

Anubis - It's kinda blah. It's just missing something, but I can't tell what...maybe it's the fact that it's just a bit too short.

There isn't a lot of space on the signature.

Mythical jungle *fade* Reverberating allure
I like it. :) Reverberating is a very powerful word, I love it. Unlike Ammer, I like the phrase 'mythical jungle'. To me it seems like you took Ammer's phrase 'magical forest' and made it better. *shrug* The fade works okay here, too. No major complaints.

Walk the secluded woodland paths...
Nice one. The signature's main object is a path in the woods, as I see it, but most people commented more on the woods itself than the particular path. There's nothing wrong with that, really, but I like how you took things a different way. Secluded is a good word. I think some of the words could be evaluated a bit more- for example "Walk the secluded hinterland terrace..." or something? But no serious complaints here, I like it.

Emerald Passage
I have to agree that it is a little short, but that doesn't mean I don't like it. Emerald is a great substitution word, I'm glad at least someone is listening to my odd and lengthy rants about word substitution. Passage is also a nice word, better than something bland like... walkway or something. I don't know. But it works well enough.

An Evergreen Escapade
Alliteration! *tacklehug* But a nitpick. The trees aren't evergreens. If you're going to use figurative language it has to make sense. If I had signature about blue cheese, you wouldn't describe it as cheddar, would you? Evergreens = Christmas trees. These trees are definitely not. Escapade is a great word though, and all in all this is a pretty okay subtext.

Amongst the whispers of the trees...
I disagree with DM. This signature to me SCREAMS drama or mystery, and you covered it excellently. There's nothing in this subtext that could be improved upon, and I have absolutely no critiques for this. Great job, Fidds.

These Cryptic Woods... *fade out* *fade in* Cloak Every Path
Technically, it doesn't really make sense. You can see the path quite clearly in the signature, it's not cloaked at all. You're also leaning on over fading. However, "the cryptic woods" is an excellent phrase. As I said in Fiddelysquat's rating, this signature is very dramatic and mysterious in my opinion, and the word cryptic covered that feeling marvellously.

(fade in)In the forest (fade out) (fade in) Of emerald enchantment (fade out)
Way too much fading here. One fade between the two phrases would be only semi okay, in my opinion, and that's me being lenient. Other than that, this subtext is just okay. It doesn't wow me, nor does it end up in me running away in disgust. Borderline is all I can describe this with.

The trees hold their own mystery
I know I said this signature says mystery to me, but this is far too blunt. First off, we can see the signature shows mystery (or at least I can). So evaluate on that! Tell me about the mystery, not that there is mystery. Maybe "The trees hold their own mystification" or something like that. I know it's not a great example, but it's something.

A woodland adventure awaits
Borderline. It's just a bit boring. It could possibly have potential if you used different words, for I find this phrase to contain quite a few words that are just everyday common words. That's not what a subtext is for. For the... third, is it? round I'm going to post the link to http://www.thesaurus.com because some of you need it. I plugged in some random words that popped up for words you had and came up with "A timberland journey abides", which I think has more of the wow factor than yours. But as I said, it has potential.

Come enter the oblique
Personally, I like it. One of the first things I noticed about this signature was the angle the picture was at, and I'm surprised no one else commented on it. I'm trying to think of something to suggest for you to improve on, and plugging in words into my wonderful thesarus to see if I can find anything better suited, but I just can't. That must mean it's a good subtext.

WIS
A secluded path *fade* A distant laugh
I like the rhyme, rhymes are always good. The fade here is almost a fundamental thing, and that is so incredibly rare that I am in a state of not really awe, but close enough to be counted as awe. Secluded is a nice word. I like the last phrase. I have no idea how it relates to the signature, but I do like it and somehow I believe it works well.
