If you can I would like you to CnC. The sigs are in order of when I made them. I hope I improved...
The sigs aren't quite good as I am new here so hope you guys can teach me some stuff. I am currently having problems with ''Text Along Path''. I made a path but the text just flies elsewhere.... I wanted to make the text curved along a line.

Renders look stretched.

Renders look stretched.
I did stretch the Kurosaki Ichigo sig. It was my first time actually using Scaling so I am not that good. But i guess after that sig I improved at least a little on my stretching.
If you going to stretch renders, sharpen them
Filters>Enchance (w.e its called)>Sharpen
One tip for you:
Put the text where you want people to look at.
Thats what I do.

Text shouldn't be the focus of a sig unless it's a sig similar to the ones Izy made for Opti/Bobo.
Noone should ever take this advice unless under special circumstances.

Hey look good but their a tad blurry :p

Thanks. I will try it out now.
@ Surgeypurgey - Yeah. I will consider it D;
@ Allie - Guess my text shouldn't be that big.
@ X3GLIKE - Thanks. I saved it in .jpg though. Might be better if I saved it in .png
Also I suggest you add borders and focus make it so that when you look at the signature you want the person who is looking at it to only notice your render and text and background for later..

Oh.....Thanks for the tip guys.
You listened too what i said with the smudging and stuff. but you over did it in the red looking one O.o
dafont.com /regards to meta.Download some new fonts. You need them, and maybe spend more time on
your sigs, they look like a quick job to me :(

Yeah. I was having trouble looking for text fonts. None of them was appealing.
Plain serif fonts like Times New Roman and even plainer san-serif fonts have their uses. It's not necessary to always use a fancified font is it now.

I guess so. But I find it hard for it to actually match into the background color. I tried color to alpha but it fails.
sometimes i used a clipping mask for the text, try to search it around :]

I like to use a plain white/overlay or something like that with a simple black outline now.
I've long since largely moved away from overdone text.

Oh. How do you make those kind of words? They're very nice.
@tanqq try finding fonts on dafont.com that match the sig style

overlay
I don't quite know where it is though or even what it is. Can you explain it?
Also made a new sigs based on the help and guides of you guys. It's the 3rd sig in my signature.

Yes, using clipping masks over text can really make your signature unique.
Like this one I made for Jason.

I actually just 'select pixels'
I made a new sig. I downloaded some new brushes and used them. I can't find the 'select pixels' option D: I found the overlay but I don't know how to use it on text.
