Ok- I'm going to put this straight out- I'm rubbish at siggies. :(
I have downloaded gimp to make a signature as in another thread that was the recommended program to use.
So I messed around with it a bit. But i'm really struggling starting and getting a really cool siggie
Also I tried to add those little pixel villager on it- I got one but it wouldn't let me add the others?

What do you suggest?
Thanks!
 
I don't know about Gimp, but I find Photoshop easy to work with. It may take a while at first to learn all the basic tools but you'll get used to it soon enough. It depends what kind of signature you want too. Do you want a simple signature just showing your villagers, or do you want something with a border and text? I can't say it's easy to make a signature out of the blue with no experience beforehand, so you have to be patient with yourself and experiment. There are tons of tutorials on YouTube, and other sites that can teach you basic things about editing. I'm self taught even though I don't have a fancy signature right now (too lazy tbh)

Not sure why it won't let you add other villagers. You did save them all, correct? You could probably just start off with pasting them onto paint using 'paste from' and then saving the image and editing it on gimp (or whatever program you choose to use)
 
To use the villager sprites, change the image mode to 'RGB' (Do this on Photoshop by clicking on the 'Image' tab at the top then clicking 'Image Mode' then 'RGB Colour' This should then allow you to use the 'move tool' to drag them onto your signature image :)
 
I use gimp too :3 PM me if you have more questions. In your layers window make sure you anchor the pasted picture onto your current layer before you add another one on.
