I am not a graphix guy, but I think the experts around here are going to mention that the text should be 'aliased'. I think there is a Tutorial about that here somewhere. I am not sure if it is in the Tutorial section or in the gfx topics. Might want to look it up using the search feature.

Border is a big one. Can you cut it down a little?

Otherwise, nice job.

The background colours could be lighter, to me it' seems to be a very dull and dark sig. Maybe using a lighter red for the background. Also a smaller maybe 2pt border would make it look alot better.

It looks very good so far! I agree with the suggestions jlhaslip and tuddy made, and if I may make my own suggestion, it would look really cool with a random design in the background, a very subtle one, maybe as an overlay or something over the gradient.

Keep up the good work!

The text needs to be anti-aliased, as jlhaslip said, which will remove the slightly jagged edges and make it look smoother against the background. The border is very wide and way too dark, which makes it very hard to tell that it is mean to have that 3D effect. The background could also do with something to make it more than a gradient. Try brushing on a new layer over the top of it, then set that layer to "overlay", and you should get quite a good effect.

Yes. Very good job on modding the original sig. Second one is a great improvement.
Keep working on your skills and techniques. You'll be a master in no time.
Check out the Tutorial section for many more tips.

ps: you don't have your name on the new one anywhere...

Good but i dont like rating sigs that are done using gimp because they are way too basic. I have seen some people do some really detailed work though so try to do more.

They are a tad basic for my tastes, but hey, that's just me! Nah,
but the text does look jagged, but other than that it is very impressve!

Keep up the good work!

i think it's a bit too simple, basically a gradient, border and render with some text, try going to a gfx forum like gamerenders.com and check out their free tuts!

    a three column layout. And lastly, a 'framed' look on a page. These are not
    'fancy', you will need to look into the code and colourize it to suit, maybe set a width and
    centre it if you want, whatever... Please feel free to snag the source and develop the pages....

  5. Gimp Abstract Signature Tutorial
    Brushes required (7)
    In this tutorial I will be showing you how to make a abstract signature in GIMP. I have a lot of

    400x100px is a good signature size. I used these settings. You should have a blank white canvas.
    We will start out our sig by brushing up a quick background. I came out with this: Next, we will
    make a new layer. We will do more brushing on this layer. I used these settings: Start brushing

    The GIMP is a graphic program that's freely available and runs on Linux or Windows (probably Mac
    too). I've been using The GIMP on and off for a few years now. Found it particularly good for
    manipulating pictures, and adding text to pictures. For example it's handy to add text to a
    photo of the kids and make it into an invitation to one of their parties. Then it's just a
    matter of getting a few printed at the local photo-shop, or print them at home. Of course you can
    do much more with the GIMP, particularly once you work out how to use 'layers' ....

  15. [gimp] Guides: Imitating Slices
    (3)
    In the GIMP there's a feature known as a guide which is about as close as you can get to the
    way Photoshop slices an image. You may not be able to generate an HTML TABLE out of the guides
    (don't even attempt to via "Save As" /tongue.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":P"
    border="0" alt="tongue.gif" />—not good) like with slices in ImageReady (Photoshop uses
    ImageReady to generate the HTML TABLE; last i checked), but it still helps when slicing an image

    I guess i compressed the image a bit too much /xd.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":XD:"

    it took just to get this far in the template, but it was more than a couple of hours. Though

    I got bored and lazy working on the things that I should do... so I end up creating this tree menu

    Instead of those linear menu it would be better to add more dynamic to your webpage with a tree
    menu. Others use image rollovers. As expecte the tree menu should behave like the one in Windows
    Explorer. When you click a node depending on its state it will pull down or pull up its chlid nodes.
