Default  New Signature Set

I made a brand new set and I really tried experimenting with filter effects which I have really no experience with as far as graphics are concerned. I had the hardest time figuring out the placement of the logo and my user name based on the images I wanted to use so I kept going back and fourth taking one off and using one or the other. Finally I just decided on this. I had varied colors but thought this shade of purple worked out best.

One thing I really wanted to try to do was make the font look like it is glowing, but I don't know how to do that or if that is possible. Other than that I'm happy with the turn out and I would love some feedback on it.



NOTE: I just realized I forgot to add a borders on both.... I'll add it later. ^^;;

It looks really good. I have seen people make font on graphics seemingly "glow", so it's quite possible.

And for the banner, the double placement of the sexy Asian female is damn good.

I'm not going to C/C but to make the font glow is very easy.

Just go on Layer options.

Its nice to know Photoshop Elements doesn't have that option as I look at it. BOO. Thank you I will keep that page bookmarked for future reference though.

Thanks for the comments.

Anti, why would you want loner on a similar looking signature?
