This is the first time I've ever attempted at making a forum signature, I've always fiddled with it for years, but never really saved them.

I've taken basically what my favorite style of signatures are that I have seen and tried re-creating it.

Work with some tutorials, they'll help you get more used to PS and you'll learn a lot of new techniques you can incorporate into your sigs.

Just some tuts and guides I have bookmarked, haven't tried them all so don't know if they're all good but most are

When you feel like you got a decent result from one, post the link to the tut and your result and you'll get plenty of CnC. Just try not to get offended by it and remember, CnC is mostly to point out the negatives, so don't take it personal!

you're first one was better
