What do you think of it? :P

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

(accidentally rasterized it after putting text on it)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Also tryed a render. -.-

 

All of them are nice, (I think, anyway), apart from the render. Rule number one: red and green don't go.

 

 

 

Also for the render, you could maybe have added an effect of some sort, I dunno, blending it? Nice work though for your first try.

I thought exactly the same when I saw the result. :P

Thanks for the tip, I'll start practising with it. :)

Argh, this may seem like alot but... it probably isn't:

 

 

 

• - It looks like you are using filters. If you aren't i'm sorry. If you are using brushes, this is a good first step. But, there isn't a lot of contrast. Either add some more brush layers or up the contrast.
   
   
   
  - The backgrounds are fairly sharp from any result, don't use smooth texts with them. Use some sharper or pixel fonts. Also, usually keep your texts either white or black.
   
   
   
  - Use a basic border. 1px black looks fine with anything. Just go to Select -> All then use Edit -> Fill and set 1px, inside and black.
   
   
   
  - Colours, at the moment they look very flat. This is probably because you are using a hue/saturation layer or adjustment. Instead, get two colours (from render if you use them to help blend), one of which is light the other is dark. Then use the clouds filter (Filter -> Render -> Clouds) on a new layer above all others (except text and border), blur in anyway if you wish and set to overlay.
   
   
   
  - Render blending. It's not very hard, use colours which are appropriate (see above tip) and learn to feather-&-blur. Duplicate the render once or twice, the bottom render to blur (gaussion by about 4 px) the top to feather (about 4px, usually equal to blurred) and set to hard light or something. (I'll do a proper tut on this some time.)

 

 

 

Some good first signatures anyway, move away from filter piles ASAP. Also, before improving the signature itself, learn to blend well. A good signature can be ruined by bad blending. (That is, if you are going to have one)
