jhath Posted August 12, 2006 Share Posted August 12, 2006 well, by definition, you cant really explain creative sig making... by definition it follows no patterns... do you know how to remove, for instance, a player from a photo? most sigs feature a player or two taken from another image, logos, text, and brushes... just be creative and experiment till you find somethin you like....

Filthy57 Posted August 12, 2006 Share Posted August 12, 2006 Once you do get the program up and running, you can find brushes and other resources on devianART, and there are many fine tutorials across the web to get you started.
