Its not a case of just saying "This is how you make a sig:...".

You learn different techinques of computer graphics. A sig is just a small image that usually displays your name and you use on forums. I guess some people call it a form of art, but personally, its just a scaled down version of any piece of art.

First you want to get hold of Adobe Photoshop (best program around imo).

Then look for some tutorials to get you started. I think theres a few in our Sigs & Graphics section. Or look at sites like www.deviantart.com or www.pixel2life.com .

Most people here have been messing with photoshop for a few years, so don't expect it to come over night. You've gotta practice and keep learning.
Although saying that, I remember that Medic seemed to pick it up really quickly ;P

So thats what you need to do.


Another tip, try and get good at typography (text), because i don't know many people who can do that well, and it can really set off a piece of art!

...And art is anything, so a sig is anything.
