Needs a border, and imo the objects should also be embossed.
Also what KingdomBlade said, this is kinda..... well it'll be hard to make it look *good*

Don't save it as .gif since it makes the sig look, well, cheap.
I always use .jpeg and save at 96% quality to make it less than 80kb's.
GIF can support a much higher quality image than JPEG, which relies on artifacts to reduce filesize.
i.e. as per usual you've got everything back to front.

EDIT: I wouldn't recommend JPEG or GIF for anything though, as PNG is better in every way imaginable.

Why isn't the opacity set to full?
It looks weird, the 3DS being pink and the GBAtemp mascot being greenish.

Also, just a tip: Always stick to one color in text.
How about a nice offer: I'll make you a siggy when I have time, and it'll have your Mii and friend code.
Just send me a proper pic of your Mii or even better, the QR code.

Images should be 'on top' of the background. So as not to recolour them. Create background gradient then place images on a separate layer on top. If I were you I'd just stay away from rainbows all together though.

Oh, thank goodness you said it Anto - a part of me inside died when I read Alan's statement.

As for the sig, well, it's lacking quality. Try making everything look less, edgy?
To me, it looks like a signature made in MS-Paint, if MS-Paint supported simple layering.
Also, all the colours are clashing, and the images look rather sickly. Try sticking to a central colour theme, rather than a rainbow-gradient look.

  • Veho @ Veho:
    What's the point of "confirming" games you know will get released. Like Nintendo "confirming" a Zelda sequel. "We can't be sure Nintendo is working on a new Zelda game, or if a new Zelda game will ever be released, until they officially confirm it."
  • Veho @ Veho:
    "There is literally no way to know if they will ever release a new Zelda game, it's wild speculation until they officially confirm it."
