I hate to ask, but as you can all probably see, I screwed up my sig, and don't have photoshop or any program to change it. My upload expired, and I don't have the proper file to repost it.
I was wondering if anyone would be willing to make me a new sig? My absolute dream is to get a sig with those Mist Nins (the ones who used the genjutsu against team 7 and kabuto in the forest) but I can't find any good pics, nor can i make a proper signature! If someone could do that for me, with my name, the words lucky or unlucky ( http://www.gotwoot.net/forum/html/emoticons/tongue.gif ) and some cool pictures or quote, I'll father your children, I swear.
thanking you generous posters in advance...i hope you'll help me!

Voila! Done in under an hour. Enjoy!
I kept the layers intact in Photoshop, so if you want to change any of the text or effects, rearrange, whatever, just specify what you want done and a change will be easy.

lasaire.... can you give me a few pointers on how you make the text look that good?
Edit: that sig you just did looks awesome... especially that it was done under an hour

Well, first of all I am using Photoshop CS but anything later than 6 will work.
First of all, when you make text first make sure you have the anti-aliasing option turned on. Second, to get that outline effect, just go into your layers palette and right mouse click on the text layer and choose Blending Modes. A window will pop open and in there you will see 'Stroke' listed in a column to the left. Turn that on and fuss till you get the color and width you like.
The "oboro bunshin" fuzzy effect was simply the ripple filter added on top of the text layer (you'll have to rasterize the text, photoshop will give you a message about that when you do the filter), and then turn the opacity of the layer down in photoshop.

Well, that's a simple stroke, but I have no clue how to do it in PSP.

Glad you liked it :-)
I whipped up mine at the same time, what do you think?

I think you should have kept the kagari one for yourself... in my opinion it is way better

No! Never! It's MINE! You lost it once you gave it to me!!!
http://www.gotwoot.net/forum/html/emoticons/mf_laughbounce2.gif j/k, but please don't take it back. I think yours is awesome too, especially since it's Anko! http://www.gotwoot.net/forum/html/emoticons/mf_dribble.gif the text is a little blurry, looks almost dot-matrix...hehe. But the image of the seal looks hype, for sure.

Don't worry, Kagari, yours is safe, I don't like the Mist Nin that much.
My sig was whipped up in about half the time of yours: the bulk of the work comes from a layout of a future Anko fan shrine that I am working on.
I've been a little hestitant to make a sig for myself since if it's going to represent me every time I post I want it to be kick-ass awesome, and I'm a bit of a perfectionist.
Glad you enjoy yours though! Any other callers for sigs are welcome to ask for one, and I'll whip it up.

Let me know when you have that shrine ready... and if you are available... can you help me make my sig better?

Mondongo, I'd be happy to help, but I must admit that I only have photoshop and paint shop pro so I can't answer any specific "how do you do this" questions.
Right now what I think your sig needs most is the resolution of the center area: that little square animation is a little confusing. I find that it helps to start out with a specific idea of what you want in terms of color will make the sig look like it fits together more. Like how Kagari's was dominated by greens and blues, without any bright yellows or reds to throw it off, and mine is more monochrome with only the blood splashes making it stick out.

That's actually a very good question.
I must admit that the two 'main guys' as they were, on the right and left don't really match, in fact they don't really appear to be drawn in the same style, which makes me think they are from two different series. If you're trying to make it appear as if they are the contestants in that ring, with them shaking hands in the background, you might want to rethink it.
Another thing of note: try to avoid focusing all your visual attention on the center. Symmetry is boring, and having a balance between off-center and center, and symmetry one way or another will draw people's eye around and make them look at it longer, thus making it more interesting. The way that the two faces frame the center ring, with the small animation focusing you right into the center means that the composition only drags eyes into the middle and is rather uninteresting.

OK I'll try your suggestions when I have the time... I really wasnt shooting for anything... I just wanted to have a sig that included my favorite characters... and for the handshke and the ring... I just needed a backround and so i just put that there, theres no hidden meaning or anything...
As for the characters:
Left: Baki from Grappler Baki
Right: Chouji from 100 Stories
Center: Ippo from Hajime no Ippo doing the Dempsy Roll (probably getting deleted because of your feedback)
I'll go to work on my sig. when I have the time... any more suggestions are welcome...
And to finish... I recomend to any of you to watch all three of those series... they are awesome... Grappler Baki has 2 series 24 episodes each, Hajime no Ippo has 76 episodes 1 movie and an OVA, and 100 Stories has 13 episodes
