    Here's my Signature,
    all done in Photoshop CS3,I'm still practicing on how to do other things,especially the background effect and so on.
    Any comment or suggestion on how to improve it are encouraged. :)
    (It would be nice with a good-easy Tutorial.)

    Your graphics are pretty nice, you just need to work on a bit of depth. o: . Maybe try exploring the world of textures? xD;
    The stock in some of your sigs are a bit too faded, but duplicating the stock layer and bringing it to the front should do the trick with setting it on softlight/multiply/etc.

    I can see improvement from your first sig to your last sig, so don't worry. xP.

    Always save a separate .psd file from your .jpeg/.png file.

    PSD format is your best friend.

    If something doesn't look right midway a sig, you can always take a break and try again later. O: .
    Graphics is supposed to be fun, so don't stress over it. xD;

    as a newbie in the PS like you mega, i suggest you play around with the layer

    i found that layer is very important for you to not messing up the graphic
     
  10. CloudBoii12

    CloudBoii12 Well-Known Member

    Duh, the layers are the graphic.
    I don't think you really know what you're talking about :/
     
  11. kukuru

    kukuru Well-Known Member

    no
    mega said he messed up

    and layers are important to not mess up the whole graphic :/
     
  12. CloudBoii12

    CloudBoii12 Well-Known Member

    Layers are important to make the graphic
    What I think he's done is made it alright with the layers, but when he saved it, he saved it as a .jpg or .png or whatever, merging all the layers into one un-splittable layer..

    making a layer's first before making a modification on the first layer saves me a lot of trouble.. :)
