I didn't put any text because I suck at them.

Want me to put a text in it?
Just tell me if you want a special color or a special font.

I wanna see what people think of it first. If it's good, I'll think about the text.  8)

Hmm it's mundane as all the other gfx beginners which is good because it means you are planted firmly on that learning curve.
The ideas are there but the execution wasn't.
Seriously, look @ tutorials, you don't have to copy the whole thing, just the techniques.
You are getting better, at least c:

looks like puke, no offense.

BG&Render mixes too much, it's like you're trying to blend, yet failed terribly --no offence, again.

nice flow, minimal amount but a noticeable amount nonetheless of blending.

i would say; lighten the bg a bit, make your avy eye-catching

cause atm, my eyes just goes over the blur.

With blending, imo, it should be so your render and bg belongs to each other, and they don't contrast so much, but also, you would want a focus point, (the render) to stand out from the bg.

Unless the whole art is made around the text ( no render, just text with effects ).

lets take your sig for example.

(http://i53.tinypic.com/2whpkid.png)

Great sig huh, it shows a dragon walking on some sort of path or branch or something.
The dragon has obvious depth and the sig is overall well done.
But what's this?
Some random text out of nowhere that creates more attention than the render.
?!?!?!?!?!

its good but the text ruins it.
It grabs more attention than the dragon.
Remove it and it'd be good; learning how to add text is great, but I wouldn't suggest adding them to your sigs at all.

Uhm. I will do that. I don't think I merged the text.

A small hint I'll leave as an ending to this off topicness..
Contrast is important, normally the part of the sig with the most contrast gets the most attention.
Nonetheless, if you just make it pop out of the sig, it'll have no blending, thus suck.
A sig like yours has depth but no blending nor contrast; I like the sig as a whole, but the depth is the only element that was really used.
