This is my first sig I've ever made using GIMP, I think it turned out pretty well and I needed a new sig for about a year now so here it is

Edit: I just realized I could have pointed at my sig rather than posting the pic again, but oh well


:p
 
It's not bad but it isn't good. Gandorf (or whatever his name is) doesn't really match the BG or work with it. It just doesn't work against it. I think something more complex looking, and dark might be better. Try moving away from a sprite on a side and the text in the center with a brush in the BG. They aren't bad methods but they don't make great sigs.

Thanks for the advice.

I agree that these are pretty boring sigs, but I just thought I could use some practice getting the feel of Gimp and such to learn what the tools do, etc. So as I fool around more and learn more I'll start getting into more advanced sig making with some better stuff. And it's especially hard with so much studying to do lately <_<

I said that assuming you were more experienced with Gimp, sorry
