My latest and Greatest attempt at a signature, yet.

Ahem. This is my third (my second was for another forum) attempt at creating signatures using Gimp.

Gimp is annoying. If you are smart, and have the resources, I would suggest using Photoshop.

But since I am neither, I must use my Gimp =.=.

Opinions please, would this look better with or without the random dots, because I'm considering taking them out and trying some other way of doing backgrounds...

I like it excluding the spots i kinda like the two spots on the hands but the rest are ubstructive and the coin behind the man seems weird when all the other words match up but that one.

This gets a 3/10
1. Nice pictures but could have been used better
2. I wouldn't call this as signature stature
3. Barely any effects besides the random balls and the shadowed text.
4. Text choice = Craptacular.(Don't worry, almost all texts in the signature world suck)

Since you are a beginner though. I give you 3 points for effort.
Let's do what comes naturally

That's because it is Mat. He kicks ass like that.

And if I knew how to do fancy smancy backgrounds I wouldn't be complaining about how Gimp sucks. Or how this was my third try.

Yeah, the dots definitely do detract from the photo it's self.
