    Today would be exactly seven days since I have had Photoshop, from reading other tutorials and experimenting I have learned quite a bit about Photoshop CS2 and have tried to creating a more unique style of my own.

    Three people, not many, have asked me how I do my signatures. It was something I came up with and it is very simple.
    So, I decided to make a detailed tutorial on it, hopefully I havnt left out anything while I was creating the signature itself:

    This is hopefully an easy way for newbies to make more professional looking signatures. Feel free to use/post this anywhere you want, I just ask that you leave my name on it, please.

    Edit:
    For those wondering, I used Alias's sparkly grunge set:

    Its best to use multiple layers, opacities, and erase unwanted parts to get the effect you want.

    +Creds and +Reps are always welcome :D

    I didnt want to make the tutorial insanely long so I cut out some pointless images and didnt add anything on adjustment layers, even though they can add a great look to the image... but, adjustment layers are far more dependant on the image being used by yourself, so I guess thats no too bad.

    Anyways, heres an updated image of what it looks like with adjustment layers:

    Ugh... I think I put this in the wrong section...

    Please remove, I moved it myself :unsure:
