    [​IMG]This is currently my first "sig" on PS and I need maybe some help and pointers on how to do a BG. This took me 5 minutes and I've only had PS for about a day, so if anyone here could help me and show me a good tut on BG that would be helpful. As far as no BG, I would just like to know how it looks without it. Maybe some hints or feedback. Thanks.

    How it looks without a BG...1) The 'crop' (Cutout) of the picture looks extremly choppy in places around the edges.2) Needs some sort of a border (unless im overlooking it)3) WTF is 'On the RTY'?4) Itd help you to choose bigger pictures from now on.... [​IMG]

    Yup starting is not the easiest thing to do, but once you start to experiment, good things will happen.

    [​IMG]I guess I'll just post this to see if you guys like it any better. I know I need a lot of work on all of this, but I'm still learning. Maybe it's better than my 1st 1 [​IMG]
