I just downloaded the trial of photoshop, thus gave it a shot. First time ever editing a picture actually, so I still need to figure out how it works.

It looks a bit stretched out but good on your first try ^^.

Yeah, i wasn't sure about the size of a banner(If you know it, feel free to post it here or to pm it to me), but that is easily adjustable.. Also i haven't quitte figured out how to cut the bottom line off decently without messing up the pic.

Well the maximum for a signature is 500x220, banners are max, I believe, is 500x200 or 500x150. Signatures are a max of 130x130 by the way ^^.

And I see, I don't really use photoshop, I use picnik.

Is picnik a free program/does it have a trial version? I'm always looking for new stuff to do so yeah, and i'll adjust the size of it, it was way too big in my eyes too..

Picnik is free, but the best things are in premium ^^; you can look on my shop for examples for what they do. It's not as complicated as photoshop but doesn't have all the capabilites of it either.

Hey! I'm a Photoshop user so if you want tips or help, let me know. Like Mistake, stop by my shop to see a few of the signatures I made. ^_^

Welcome to the forum

You've done a better job than my first attempt, at photoshop, by far.

Been using photoshop for a few years now also. If you have questions feel free to ask! (If Zelda or Mistake haven't already andswered them)

Photoshop always managed to find a way to mess me around (because it can't possibly be a fault on my end) so you're automatically much better than me. I only really use it occasionally for some of the functions, but most of the time I just improvise with Paint.NET. It's a great program with some great plugins (although they're a nightmare to find) and you can do great things with great improvisation.

Nice work!
