Text has always been a problem with me. I've never, ever, applied text in any past sig that i've liked. I just can't find any that i like, or when i do, they never fit.
About the split words, i tend to try to fade my name out to where it's barely noticable. I think the opacity was at 15% in this one. It's only there to prevent 'theft'.

I'll try to put more detail in the background.

Your criticism is greatly appreciated, Lumix, as your work is beautiful.

Edit: v2


Think i went a bit overboard with the effects...

FYI; Won't look good in color, because the picture itself is black and white.
