look at my cool sigs.. lol not really made em using paint.. but they work for me. any suggestions? or better free programs to use? .; Gimp is free alternative to photoshop. Small tip: 1. Google 2. Signature tutorial And voila you can learn how to make them. Impressive for paint, however, you can't get into the more advanced stuff and creating your own backgrounds etc. properly without a good software :P. See if you can get your hands on a copy of photoshop CS4. There are free versions on the internet, but I've had trouble uploading my own images before. Good luck! ok ill look at all of the options. ty for all the help
