Programs to make Sigs

[CarlitoTevez]

I thought this has gotta be done...

Im an amateur when it comes to sigs and i was wondering if you could help me out... Ive seen some real class sigs on here, sucks as futbols and keanos!... How do you make them? As u can tell by mig sig im not very good.. And what programs do u use? I use Photofiltre, which is quite simple... Do you know any other free programs that can make really good sigs?

Please post a tutorial if you can. Thanks :)

Keano! uses one called paint.net.

I've never used it but apparently it's quite good :)

Wow.. Thanks.. i Guess :D

[Keano!]

paint.net is a great one to start off on.

Its free and very easy userface with great results.

All my sigs and pictures are made using it......

[CarlitoTevez]

The one im using in my sig is the one i made in paint.com.... Is it any good for a first attempt? and please tell me where i can improve :)

How would i change the background? ie.. add good effect?

What the hell is Carlos doing in your sig?:eek:
:D

[Keano!]

I'd download paint.net......check my thread on it

I'd render a background of some sort.

Possibly a boarder too, otherwise, its not too bad...

But the backgrounds are crucial to sigs! ;)

check out their forum on it, or else play with clouds/gradients/lines/twist/curves....

Their forum's very helpful, and I should also point out that the installation
of "plug-ins" is extremely beneficial! ;)

they're brilliant additions to it! Good luck....


Notice how I've blended a n=umber of tuts into my current sig, which I'm going to go and change now......:p

Off to make a new one!
