My first sigg...

i made it too big

Nice.

Looks like you scribbled the background for Heartgold and Soul Silver. Spend some more time on it and it'll be good.
Also, the quality of Lugia and Ho-Oh isnt that't great.
Remember to save it as .png for best quality

Make sure when getting the link you grab the one at the very bottom and copy and paste it into the image button when you post...I can't really see it.

i did save it as png.

i think it sucks cause i have NO exp in making sigs

Now these are my new avatars

ew

NEVER use red text

NEEEEEEEEVEEEEEEERRRRRRRRRR


If you want a nice glow, duplicate the original text layer (there should be an icon for that) and give it a little Gaussian blur :>

any tips on how to get the backgroup to flow with the pics?(i can't seem to make a background for the pics)

With your avatars...
Honestly, it looks like you grabbed an image off google, resized it the added text...

And for the background flowing, what program do you use?

i use paint.net and i dont know any other way to get images other from google. Also im just beginning when i get better maybe i'll open a gfx shop. But i admit i suck

Any tips?

First tip:
Get gimp

Then, try duplicating the render and use effects on the DUPLICATED render and put it behind the original one. It should give you a kind of matching effect eventually like this:



That's how I'D advise you to make a background match the render (picture), but if you didnt understand that check out this thread:

Really? :O Well, no problem i guess. That's just what i've been using recently.

It would be nice if you could use your own style (but for only later on - once you`ve gotten your way around gimp) Thank me on my accomplishment for typing this on the wiiiiiiiiiiiiiii!!!!11111.

Great advice but how do you resize a photo in gimp

Well, in PHOTOSHOP you press "Ctrl" and "T" at the same time.

I'll go a find out what it is for GIMP, since i have it.

well its good for a beginner.
I believe yours was WAY better than my first signature.

Anyway.
I have a tutorial somewhere on this site, when you feel comfortable you should try reading it.

Ahk, but i think it's better for a newby (to signature making) to read the other one first as it teaches more then one signature.

Lol
Learn the ropes first before signature reading.
Gotcha.
