It's really nice, actually, but like Gooners said, smaller.

Quick question:
Mine is a tad big, should I make it smaller?

how did you get the text like that? was it a downloaded font or just effects?

Looks downloaded.

And I am going to be a bitch here, but all it looks like you have done is got a photo.

Put text in.

And copy and pasted the BF2S picture in..

Things you can do to improve it:

1. Download some brush sets

2. Learn how to brush

3. Colour Effects

4. Text Effects

5. Lighting

how is his sig any different then yours, looks like you did the same thing.

@op: good job for your first. keep working at it and do some tutorials. you might try to put a border on there to make it look finished. GJ!

True, but did I ever want to make mine fancy?

Brushing wouldnt work in mine, and fancy text would simply distract the eye from the main feature.

you should take the BF2s and KTNL tags out of your sig and use them as linkable images outside the actual sig.

No, don't download brushes - make your own. Check out some of the tutorials in the stickies (I might add gfxvoid.com to that) and I'm sure you will progress fast

PS:Don't distort the sig to make it smaller - it ends up looking terrible : /

You distorted it a bit when you reduced the size.

When you wanna re-size something in PS, go to Image - Image Size, then make sure constrain proportions is selected, it'll stop it going weird.

Proper:

Both are 150px high. BTW it's usually a good thing to add a border to finish it off, I like to anyway.

Make a new layer and hit ctrl+a to select the whole layer and go edit - stroke, set it to 1px white. then set the layer to 'Overlay'. Takes 3 seconds.

You can barely see it on this one so it's probably not worth bothering with but bear it in mind on future ones.

Really nice looking sig, well laid out too.
