Alright, I'll show my latest work here. I'm a noob at this stuff, so don't laugh
Right now I have only made 2 sigs,
They are both football sigs of Tyrod Taylor

This one is my 2nd sig, and it turned out to be terrible.
I used too many grunge brushes, so it didn't look good.
Spoiler:


My First sig I've ever made is the one in my sig right now
When I get better over time, you guys can ask for requests Very Happy

UPDATE:
Spoiler:

I actually think that your second sig is better. It looks a lot more detail. Nice sigs for a starter though.

Thanks a lot Kino! I didn't like my 2nd sig cause I added way too much detail IMO.
And it's kinda the same as my last one. I accidentally made the VT on his helmet backwards too.
But, at least I'm improving Very Happy

Yes the best way to get better is to practice. Just make random sigs when you feel like it and it's the best way to learn.

I was going to ask if the VT was actually backwards on their helmets Laughing I figured I would have noticed that if they were.

I don't know how to do much in the program yet.
Just rendering, using brushes, lightning effects and a supernova
Right now I'm trying to make a sig with a good motion blur

Give me some tips if you guys can

All I learned was from tutorials from YouTube. Just type in GIMP or Photoshop tutorials.

Oh yeah. Definitely your best one right there. The color of the text goes greatly with the background. Nicely done. *Claps*

Spoiler:



That one didn't go as good as I planned.

I'm still working on the Briere one, that one should turn out better than that one

I don't know why, but Lemieux was really blurry in that sig[/spoiler]

I tried my best on this one, didn't really like it, but it's better than the other one

Sorry if you don't like them, I'm only a noob at this stuff

I'm a very pessimistic person if you haven't noticed
