Basic Forum Sig

[Arkanian]

Yay my first tut lol, I hope its good.

Alright for this tutorial, I will use a 400x100 document.

1. Press D to reset your colors, then go to filter>render>clouds



2. Next go to filter>texture>patchwork (Square size: 1 Relief: 0)



3. Now press ctrl+u and check the box that says Colorize. Now just mess around with the bars until you have a color that you like.

Here is what mine looks like once its colored:



4. Now add some text (I used Verdana) And maybe something extra with a pixel font (I used silkscreen, which you can get at dafont.com)

And there you go:



OPTIONAL: You can also add a render to your sig. (I put my renders blending mode on hardlight for a better effect.)

OPTIONAL: After you add your render, make a new layer above all of them and press ctrl+a. Then go to edit>stroke. Make it 2 px and you choose any color that goes well with your sig.

And heres my final result:



Hope you liked this tut! Tell me what you think. (Oh yah...I made this awhile back...thats why it says fusion graphics lol)

It looks simple... but it looks better than your sig (no offence)

The grid kills it, I'm sorry.

But it's good for a beginners.

i would look better if you hadn't put it on hard light. the grid on the render just looks funny

Hi, im a noob and i was wondering how you put text in..i just got Photoshop today and dont have a clue how to do this, also how did you get that picture in

[Delta62]

great simple sig for beginners great



and as for pics and text???

Pics (Renders) Search the pic you want on the tinternet , save it , then open it up in photoshop then ure done


Text: On the vertical toolbar to the left when you open photoshop, its the icon that is a T, and all you have to do is grab your text icon and drag it on the images like a text box and there you have it
