I'll take first to give help.
Ok teach ya how to render (and later background)
Ok this is one of the most important steps in sig making!
1st Make sure all the background is G-O-N-E this makes it look tacky and real bad there are two ways you can do this.
A. Magic Wand-THIS IS FOR NOOBS if you want to be taken serious then don't do this. anyway take the magic wand and select and del. all the background from the image (next stamp and big letter N for noob) I mean make a background (later) Then place your name on it and host it on image shack or something like that.
B. Eraser-Ok this is the pro way of doing it. First, you start with a big eraser careful not to destroy the image you are trying to render. Next, you take a smaller eraser and trim the edges of the picture for even finer tunning. Last and most important, take a very small one (5-9 size in photo shop) and trim away any ugly pixels (pieces) of the picture (don't trim the picture itself) (like bold lines stuff like that make it look real do you see bold line on yourself?) Finally make a background (later)
and place your name on it and host it on image shack.
If you are confused then do this if you can't color the background.
1st click where you see background in the lower left corner and del it then go to layer (task bar) and choose new. after that go nuts with it have fun make something kool.
Well anyway best advice is to have fun if this makes you mad stop don't destroy yourself to figure it out.
