Now I'm new to photoshop so don't chew me out to bad guys. This is the first one that I've done. I'm starting to get the hang of photoshop so I hope my future ones are better.

not bad for a firt timer its a little big for sig i usually make mine like 350 x 120 or 500 x 85 if that gives you a size idea, the text is a little small. also to make your text pop a little more you could use the drop shadow effect on it and set the distance to like 1 and it would help your text stand out better, but like I said for a first timer it looks pretty good

it looks oke for a first timer, but i think the caracter contrast a little to much with the background and also behind the houses where it's brownish meaby you could try some brush and/or blending effects on that??
but a good start nontheless

Probably much better than my first sig, you need to improve on the nsize of the text and maybe change the font, as ekosh rightly said, it well to big for a signature, if u reduce ti to one of ekoshes sizez of like 500 x 100 (squash it abit) then it will be better, but very good start

Well I did a bit more experimenting. I know these aren't sig sizes but I"m trying to get the hang of using photoshop more. Gonna post these then I gotta go finish up my project for my photoshop class. I'll work on the sizing of my future ones along with the texts. One more question though, how do the guys get their backgrounds the way they do on their sigs. I mean with all the different mixtures and blending you know.

Position of the secondary image seems a bit peculiar to me in the Hayek one.
Combonation shoulders/leg makes it look like her thigh has been amputated.

Yeah I noticed that when I got finished. I thought that in photoshop that they had this command like in illustrator(send to front, send to back) but it wasn't. I'm gonna try alot harder in my future ideals. I got something in my head with maybe some videogame characters, maybe with the character moving a bit(you know animation). Thanks Jersey hacker,and the rest of you guys for your feedback.

well you can kinda send forward and backward, if you put your elements on different layers you can change the orders of the layers essentially the same thing as send forward and backward it is just done with different layers, if that makes sense
