What do you think?

This is my first outing in photoshop to create a new signature, what do you think?

Thanks,
Craig


EDIT- How do I make text bigger, Ive been selecting the text then changing the size in tyhere but when I click OK it stays the same size, Im using photshop 5 btw

EDIT 2 - im trying to make the "CCW - XtremeSystems.Org" bit bigger

The compression's a bit too much, otherwise looks good.

where's the mouse cord?

Looking good, but like Pinky said you got compression on too high hence the pixelation on it.

Transparent gif I'd imagine allows for the rounded edges and the background color through (and the slight shadow effect, nice job ), rounded edges are sub-settings (somewhere) in the box creation tool.

i like it

When you select the text box, you must highlight the text, then type in the size you want and it will change. If you don't select the text and just click in the text box, it will do like what you said and not do anything.

Cheers, will give it a try

This better, still cant curve edges though

If I were home I'd jump into photochop and help, but alas, I'm in the uncool job place thing.

CCW: If you upload the .psd I'll see what I can do


Edit: I don't know how PS5 looks but from PS7:

2: here you have some different styles to select.
3: Opens ImageReady where you can play around with more styles and stuff to make smooth edges etc..

Thanks Iluvatar, mine unforutetly is substantially different
