    My first few attempts at sig making. They are organised from older to newest. Tell me if you think I'm getting better.

    I couldn't get the border to mix with the overall picture so I just settled with white.

    I stuck to the same colors as usual. I think it worked out better then the last one.

    Further editions.

    All of them need borders. Cathal likes borders.

    The last ones seems to be the best one colour balance-wise.

    The border for the red one seems too bright and thick. The orange one is fine though.
    It doesn't bother me too much. Maybe because I'm on my laptop. :(

    I don't have Photoshop but I gave it a shot.

    Surprisingly, my version of GIMP has most of the things I needed. Most of them.

    Here's my attempt.

    Where did you get the fonts for GIMP?

    And could you give me some hints for using it. Just got it and I'm not very good at it. >_>
