    Plain to the max dude. Jazz it up a bit. More activity. Backround and text. The paste on player is a bit to noticable.

    But my text is alot better you gotta admit. When I got the picture of Randy Moss on the sig, it was only black and white...I dont know why. Before I put it on, it was in color but when it was on the sig, it was black and white.

    No offense but it's not really good at all. The text is incredibly choppy. The bg looks just like a premade and is very plain. As for the render if it came in black and white use another one. Don't ever feel forced to use one pic. I know of atleast 5 or 6 moss psds out there just from 2 sites. Since your new at gfx just keep working at everything and look for tuts that can help.

    Ok fair enough thanks for the tips. I made the BG, its not premade. I don't know how to put text I download from dafont.com onto my sigs. So I just used the one that was available on Photoshop.

    ^, what he said, but you probably should go to classic control panel....nobody told me that when I started and I got confused.

    Yes it's you best but it doesn't take much... how many sigs have you made? BEcause when I was making like my 5th and 6th-ish they were looking like this:[​IMG][​IMG]Get some really good brushes... do what they said about getting fonts

    Yeah but how old are you? I'm just 14 so I don't know alot about Photoshop. I will read alot more tutorials and my next sig is gonna look alot more professional. I don't take alot of time to make a sig. Usually it takes me like 10 minutes max but other good sig makers take their time and do it in minimum 30 minutes.

It's just about knowing what looks good and what great gfx designers look for, practicing, always taking advice, taking your time in your sigs.

    Exactly but I just started making sigs since the beginning of October. Other times I would just request sigs. I never thought of trying to make sigs until a couple of weeks ago. I'm learning how to make them look better. I am taking advice from everyone but I just gotta practice more.

    I'm only 15... 1 year isnt much and it all depends on how you apply information you recieve. I started making sigs/got photoshop at about June maybe May of this year. But youre taking a good attitude on this, keep on working hard and you will get betterAnd also, take time on your art. 10 minutes isnt anything, try to do the best you can possibly do and only finish if you are completely satisfied with the sig.

    Does anyone know why I cant put color in the sig? I can only get black, white and grey. When I pick other colors like red or blue or etc, it gives me grey. Help?
