Okay, so for 3 days now I have been trying my best to train, look at tutorials and getting a better understanding of the basics of making signatures in GIMP!
This is what I have come up with so far.



There are a lot of things I still need to practice on, so I was wondering if someone could see just by looking at my picture exactly what I should learn and maybe give me a link?

Even though they aren't that good, constructive criticism would be really nice.
Knowing what I should avoid or do more often or even stop doing overall is really helpfull!

Also hoping for some links to help me out <3
(Please do not refer me to some huge thread with 400 links in it of tutorials for both GIMP and Photoshop, I wouldn't know where to find what I need or even start.)

Avoid text, it ruins the tag if you don't use it properly

Also look at this:

(Yea, it says Photoshop, but it applies to all tag-making)

Did you honestly read through tutorials and complete them? Because save for one, all of these tags are the same.

i see no progress in these, cant tell which is newest and which is oldest

if you want to get better just dont pump out mass amounts of sigs, go slowly take your time, redo layers, redo the same tutorials

redo redo redo redo

Will do, thank you ^.^

Edit;
I made the one I use at the moment as a signature, that must be some kind of progress right? :/

You haven't followed anyone's advice, so why keep asking for it?

Compare the first sigs I made to the one I use as signature at the moment, you will see you are wrong.
No need for comments from people like you since they are not going to help me advance in any way.
Please just leave and never return to this thread because you are not needed nor wanted here mate.
