They're horrible, I know, but I was just so bored and I was so tempted to learn some Photoshop, I started out with renders and gay brushes.

Text doesn't really go well with the background, in short, it doesn't blend well. Don't always use brushes for making tags, add lighting. And make the render blend too. Oh yeah, why is it always ENRAGED?

Oh. Okay. There's too much redundant text, just one Enraged or Danny would've been okay. Oh and don't always use brushes, use the filter effects as well and all that other stuff. Blend the render and the text. Add a border, maybe 1-2 pixels thick. Add lighting and depth.

Ok. I'm going to take your opinion into consideration and make a new signature. I'll post it later.

I kinda like them, remind me of Splinter Cell games (Which I love lol.) I've never really done any photoshop work so I can't comment on the whole rendering stuff.

Also stick to the same size when making a sig. Usually I use 400x150px. Also I find that the renders a kind of big. Also try usuing a font that fits in with the render and background. (:

Me too, I'm a big fan of Tom Clancy games and MGS.

I've been trying to look for some good signature fonts, but can't find anything interesting.
Would you mind linking me to some?
Thanks for the sizes btw, I'll use 'em
Edit: @ PHIXEN, thanks!

If you want fonts you can go to dafont. Or you can register at this site and download the font packs there, says they're good for tags.

Fonts
Sig Tut.
Also blurring and smudging around the render makes the render blend in more with the background. I reccomend doing that. xP It's a complex tutorial but I think it would help you make a huge improvement with all those other tut's provided.

The last two are plain red.
You wanna use a contrasting color on the BG then on the actual picture.
Its good for your first ones... I like the first one but I'd loose the top
