    its not bad for first sig but u should keep the render visible i mean so u can see them clearly just make i lil bit transparen the font is too simpel and i would make it lil bit darker if u could send me the psd file i could probably help u a lil bit more

    it's not bad..I think there is too much stuff.. and as said..keep the render visible.. and try and blend your text a bit,

    I would say 5/10..giving you the doubt that your a first timer.

    what they said, and you can also try messing with the lighting effects (filter-render-lighting). and go over the topics that say something like "ratings plz" since people usually comment, so you can probably find useful tips there. and tutorials help too :P

    i think what he meant by the background thing is that you didnt blend the render into the background, so it just looks like you made the bg and then pasted the render on it (which i'm guessing is just what you did :lol: ). you need to blend the render by brushing over it, particularly the edges. i'm still having trouble with the depth thing, from what i understand it involves messing with the lighting to create shadows and messing with blurs to create a focus point, so it looks like the sig could be a real life image. and the colors i think he meant that the colors dont look blended, try doing a gradient map over the image when you're done, and/or over background/anything else you think could use it (low opacity and/or lower fill, if not it just covers your image lol, so play with the two until you like what you see, though usually i find just lowering the fill looks better) (see below)



    it blends the colors to fit the gradient pattern a bit, so you can use it either to balance the colors or to change the look of the sig, or both :P. just lower the fill and/or opacity of the gradient layer so that it doesnt completely cover the sig :P .[/b]
    you can choose the colors you like and the style, but you should still try to blend them a bit (not make everything the same color, but just make them more similar)

    so try again :P
