This is my first sig ever, and I'm looking for criticism.

Hmm...

This sig isn't half bad, I think the border should be smaller.
I like the lighting, it makes it look like it's about 8-9AM.
The "Redshadow" text should be bigger or it should be black since it's hard to see the entire word, but I know it's there.
I'm not good at giving criticisms but I try.

Look up some tuts and keep trying. ;)

Did you watch a tut?  It has a nice background, but I don't like the render.

The right side draws more attention then the actual render itself.

Your trying to show out the render, not the text.

I was looking for a specific image, and that render was the best I could find.

Place the ''RedShadow'' text closer to the render and it will be better.


Detective Conan own you peeps.

Didn't say anything was wrong with gimp.
I noticed people who use gimp focus more on shapes then effects.

Gimp is a smaller version of Photoshop which is recommended for the people who just started making signatures because it has a user friendly interface.
But if you want to go "deeper" with all the effects and everything , you need Photoshop.
-
The signature is nice but it's too "empty" , there's a render , a background some text and a 8-9AM light .
For your first signature it's good , but for the next ones ( if there are going to be others ) stick to tutorials.
