Help with text!

[Craftyyy]

Hey everyone.

I started using PS probably a little more than a week ago, and I must say, I love the program.

The only thing that I have done is make sigs but I love it.

The only problem I have is text. Now I have heard from different people that they feel it's the hardest part of making the sig.

Does anyone have a link to a good sig tutorial or examples of good text color and placement?

Thanks a million guys.

P.S. Joined GFXvoid yesterday and I love it. The community is great!

i believe txt can be really make your art pieces really stand out and give it its personality and basically all i do is fool around with txt...my signatures that u c r actually really bad examples of good txt because i suppose i got lazy lol

but www.dafont.com is a GREAT source for fonts...u should go there...dl a bunch of fonts and fool around with it until u find the perfect font for your art piece

GL!
