    2.[​IMG]
    3.[​IMG]
    4.[​IMG]
    5.[​IMG]
    6.[​IMG]
    7.1[​IMG]
    7.2[​IMG]
    7.3[​IMG]
    7.4[​IMG]
    the first one was my first made sig, it got a stupid size and i merged all layers before saving it (noobish action i know), so i can't change that...
    and can some1 tell me the most used size for sigs?? cuz most are 350-450x100-150, but i wanna know the "official" size.

    any comments/suggestions etc on how to improve them??

    thanks in advance

    Your last one is pretty good actually, but the others are noobish. XD

    On the last one though, take out the scanlines and the text. Then it could be good. :)

    These are all in the old grunge style. The last one could work without scanlines and text.

    your off to a great start, just remember, dont get discouraged by others skill, find out what style and techniques work for you and then refine them till you have em down then you can explore other styles dont rush it, learn to use your tools first.Imagination along with creativity and solid composition are key factors but most of all...have fun........welcome to gr, where we breed uber tag artists

    the fun part is not a problem :D i love it to make such (for me) nice tags :)
    and i won't get discoureged by the skills of others, it's the other way arround, i'll try to master their skills aswel :D
    about mastering my own style, i'm explorering some styles atm, trying alot of tuts etc.
    and the rushing, i just go as fast as i go, wether its slow or fast, not even i can do a thing about it :D
    and last of all, tnx for the warm welcome and maybe i'll be a uber tag artist some day :D

    Take out the color balance layer. XD

    Try a B/W gradient map on multiply round 7-14% percent opacity.
