    The fact that skill and technique is more important than the actual content of the sig.

    well that your opinion, as my opinion is content/skill. i've made and i can make complicated ones but i don't like them so i don't make them any more also the fact that i can't be botherd after i've done the render as i do all my own renders.

    Photoshop is a hefty price of nearly $900-1000, not sure about Extended, imagine the price of CS4 :eek:

    meh, get Paint.net. its almost as good as photoshop in my opinion, and is getting better all the time. Plus, its 100% free and 100% legit :D

    Re: The Signature Thread

    I'm sorry but Paint.net is nowhere near as intricate as PhotoShop. If you would like free alternative most Graphics Artists tend to suggest GIMP. I have never heard of a good graphic artist that uses Paint.net, have you Almo?

    Wait until you're at university then you should be able to get a fairly significant student discount.

    Photoshop is industry standard, like ive said before, if you wish to use it all through life then jump into PS, if all you want to do is make an average sig then GIMP or paint.net will do fine.

    Well I'll use GIMP, and wait 'till university Loony :p lol

    Actually a lot of people complain about the bad GUI of GIMP. Freeware options of Photoshop would be a bad idea.

    Why not use Paint.Net? It's nearly the same as PS and you can download plugins for it to make it more like PS.

    Re: The Signature Thread

    I have a quick question. How do you get to have the character over the edge of the signature box? For example: look at romz_mark's sig, like how spyro is over into the white area

    you need the background transparent and you need to save it as a gif or png (i think)
