(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); This was the first sig I ever made myself. It looked good at first, but then when I made it sig sized, it just kinda got messed up. I was going to add text, but it all sucked and made it look bad. Any help with text and sizing issues is appreciated. I made it using GIMP (but resized with photobucket).

EDIT: I just made this too. Once again, I'm new to this, so any advice would be great.

To be honest it doesn't look that good at all compared to what other people can make. I would say for your very first signature. I would have to give it probably a 6/10. If you keep working im sure you can get better!

Well what do you think I should do to make it look better (besides reading more tutorials obviously) like how do I make the text look better and make it so it doesn't get screwed up when I change the size

I'm new to Sig-making aswell, just downloaded Gimp etc so I don't know anything about the text/art/size etc.

In my opinion it's pretty good being your first! Obviously it won't be as good as the other experienced sig-makers but I'm sure we learners will get there sooner or later.

I have to say, I like the Infamous one the most. Happy

errmm i think the first the colours go well, but the render needs more blendin and it seems squashed.

the second again, the render seems squashed, and needs more blendinngg

your renders are to distorted when resizing them hold shift to keep it the same size

How do I re size using GIMP, because I just go to Image>Scale Image and then you fill in what you want the dimensions to be. I don't shift would help there.

on gimp if its the same as photoshop press ctrl+t and then it should be resizable
If not im sure on the resize option there's a chain link, make sure its selected because it keeps the ratio proportions the same Winky Winky (by selected make sure the chain isnt broken.
