Help Me Improve My Art!

[Finnian]

This was really helpful, thanks!

No, I can't do animated backgrounds simply because it says that it doesn't open as a .gif and blah blah blah. I'm sure there are ways around it so I could probably learn. But for now baby steps lol.

And there was a part that I got stuck on in her gradient tutorial, not sure if you could help with that? She mentioned "MAKE SURE MAINTAIN ASPECT RATIO IS UNTICKED AND ITS IN PIXELS, NOT %", but in my version of Paint it doesn't have a pixel setting OR aspect ratio. :/

I also just made this using what I learned:

Finally I can make a glow effect rather than just a boring outline. I may touch it up a bit later, but for now I'm happy with it. c:

THAT'S BETTER THAN MY STUFF
And tbh I have too many fonts.
I think they're slowing my computer down .-.

THAT LOOKS SO GOOD!!!
Oh one more thing!
Save EVERYTHING as a png, vs. a jpg. jpegs RUIN image quality.
Lemme show you what I mean:

Spoiler: Nice! A png, just looks like it did in my program!

Spoiler: WHY WHY DID YOU DO THIS JPEG??

OMG THANKS c':
And true, I'mma have to remember that
Might take a while, though. It took me saving it 5 different times to realize I was saving it as the program document rather than a picture file -_-
I didn't have my Wheaties this morning

YAY CONGRATS! That looks really good! I also learn new things everyday so its pretty cool. In terms of the program and the steps I am not sure. It would be better to ask Ally that. I can help you in terms of suggestions and other small things you can add to your signature! I can try downloading it and playing around with it though!

I'm just so excited and going to be making sigs all day. xD
Oh, and that part wasn't in the program, that was just in Paint lol. I have an old version and I wasn't sure if you'd know anything about it so I figured I'd ask. c:
I did PM Ally but she hasn't been online yet. cx

AND AHHH THANKS FINNIAN

LOOK AT IT IT'S SO CRYSTAL CLEAR NOW

ARENT PNGS BEAUTIFUL

THEY ARE

OKAY I'M FINALLY SATISFIED WITH IT NOW
ONLY UPLOADED IT LIKE 7 TIMES

JUST MADE THIS ONE AND IT'S SO PERFECT HNNG

EXCEPT for the text color. I couldn't figure out which gradient looked best, so I went with "electric blues", but it looks meh.
Any suggestions? o3o

I have an important question for sig-makers... how do you go about adding names under the villagers and make it look so perfect?! Whenever I try it, you either can't read it or it's positioned weird.

I just did this one today and I could not for the life of me arrange the names exactly how I wanted.

I mean, it's good enough, but still!​
