never.

Not gonna candy coat this
I'm assuming the cut job on the render was a bit rough and you encountered some jags because the edge of it is extremely blurred. The render doesn't fit in at all. The background is very busy and very sharp which takes away from the main focus of the sig. The render (which is the main focus) is blurry and smooth. Theyre conflicting styles. The biggest problem is the edge of the render, it really kills the sig. I dont know what your using to cut, but use the pen tool (obviously unless you have elements which I doubt because not many people here actually paid for photoshop). This sig isnt working because of the background conflicts the render too much. The typo practically is invisible on top of that background. Don't do transparent or bevelled text (or both). And just to let you know, design-wise, you should never use that font. There are no situations in which you would use it. Keep working, but spend a little more time on it (or picking out what your going to use anyway)
