Hey everybody. So I'm trying to get better at sig making, because at the moment I'm not very good. I feel like this sig is missing something, so could you give me some CC please? Thanks :eek: . Oh, I'm using photoshop.

My CnC may sound harsh:
The background is kinda messed up, I know you're trying to make it like ice and everything but I have no idea what it actually is :S
Also, Keep the render clean and away from effects, also I'd move it to the middle and add some text, lighting, a boarder, And make it blend in a little.

If you read some tutorials, I'm sure you'll improve!
Everyone once started off like you and soon you'll be as great as the other people on here :)

Thanks, that definitely helped! Here's my 2nd try. What do you think? What else should I work on?

I believe you have the right idea and all you need help with is the execution. It really is HARD to be helpful through words. The only thing for me that works is to look and analyze GFX images that are good and wonder how the artist got it to look like that. Maybe you could find a signature you really admire, then search up tutorials on how to create certain elements similar to it that you can use.
 
It's great that you are exploring on Photoshop, but you really should look up some tutorials. Your signature doesn't really blend in that great, it also looks like a cat scratched the background of your signature. Sorry if that sounds rude, but it is the honset truth. Also, are you using the default tools, fonts, etc in Photoshop? I would install some fonts and some other stuff to get you off in the right direction. I can't really give you a great site to look for these types of things, but YouTube or a Photoshop forum would be your best bet. Oh yeah, PlanetRenders might help you out or DeviantArt. You always see rookies on that site looking for a good tutorial.

Start exploring around, maybe you'll become a great Photoshop user!
 
You're doing a bit good for a start.Just look at my first signature,and now look at my current signature.Right there was improvement and you will improve soon enough if you keep practicing.
 
I think the second one is better. I don't like the weird texture stuff on the ice climber though. Seems out of place...
 
I'm not a big fan of using textures as backgrounds. I improved my GFX making by looking at a ton of tutorials, and that's what I would recommend for you. Tutorials can teach you things like techniques and proper signature making :) .
