    Alright, this my first attempt at a signature.
    More or less so it was an attempt to you use the brushes and filters to my best ability, I wasn't necessarily trying to make a signature. There is no text of my name since I am new to Photoshop and I know for a fact that text is the area I am lacking in.

    Wait, photoshop? You filthy rich bastard.

    Well, it's good for a first attempt. I have no idea how to help you though.

    Well text wise you don't want it bold and you don't want it to take away from your focus point, so you may want to overlay the layer the text is on, or something, I also advise not putting it is corners it seems to break flow, maybe near focal, just make it nice.

    No text yet.

    My only suggestion would be to at more depth. Such as, separate those circles in the corner, then drop a shadow. That way you have a corner border.

    Text wouldn't look very good in that tag, anyways. I don't include text a lot because it just sometimes looks better.

    If you do wanna put text i suggest something simple like arial or impact. You can change spacing and stretch it if you want by going to WINDOW >> CHARACTER

    This is a nice effect you have. Only thing i dont like are the 4 circles on the corners.

    It needs a focal. Use some text (NOT GREEN, IT IS ALREADY MONOTONE ENOUGH) and make the text the focal. Do something snazzy with it. Because it is the focal, you want it to look nice, but not overdone.

    Here are my two new updated tries at fixing this attempted signature by myself.
    As stated in my original post this is my first attempt at making a signature.

    IMO the colour is horrible. Otherwise there isnt much to say. Looks better now youve darkened it and added depth.

    I have a thing for this color. When I first joined Forgehub for the first two months I would color code all my posts with this COLOR. And It's even how my Youtube background color is also. So no body has any tips for the next time I attempt to make a signature?
