The first point to remember is you are not only limited to photoshop to make signatures. 1.gimp great program lots of possibilities very good support 2.paint.net oh don't be scared now because it has paint in it don't mean its paint this actully is paint.net no not a websites name but a program well actully it is a website but anyways this can do many things layers all that good stuff. pics pics everyone loves pics. picture of gimp- look at all the possibilities  paint.net  so your a rich boy or can afford it. There is photoshop now photoshop its a lot of fun to use lots of effects and everything. There are two version cs2 and cs3 cs3 is more improved.  And a pic of cs3  ok so you got the programs whats that you want to get started already well hold on there well actully dont hold on explore the program get a feel for it. now get some tutorials do you think you just started wallking when you were a baby no you saw your momy do it and you copied well thats what tutorials help us do. turoail website are in resources. you will also need renders fool how you gonna do graphics without images. renders websites are in resources also. -resources- if you got photoshop or gimp you will be intersted in. www.tutorialized.com photoshop www.good-tutorials.com gimp www.gimp-tutorials.com/ gimp.org/tutorials and paint.net painttuts.com photoshop.com gimp.org paint.net notes/disclaimer paint.net is the website where you download the program and the programs name so dont get confused. photoshop is not free. gimp and paint.net also supports plugins There are also other programs out there not that i know of but these are tested by me. In my opinion photoshop is fun to use, you can do many advanced stuff if you know how. gimp was a little hard for me but there are dozens of tutorials. paint.net is quick and simple and can get advanced also. YOU SHOULD NOT TRUST THIS TUTORAIL IT WAS WRITTEN BY SOMEONE THAT SUCKS AT GRAPHICS AND BEEN ONLY AT IT FOR 2 MONTHS. o yea how could i forget particapate in all the gfx contests on the web. ummm have fun

GIMP is what I use. Its by far the best when you don't want to pay 650$ for PSCS3, or risk getting caught with extremely expensive pirated software....
You know that the screenshot of the GIMP you have up there is pretty outdated. They've got a new 2.4 stable release which looks much better. Thats got to be like 1.0-2.0, because 2.2 even looked better than that. -------------------- Q6600, 4GB g-skill, 8800GT, P5N-D motherboard  My art |
