I just whipped this one up in 5 - 10 minutes, I can't upload it for some reason though. Is it to do with the dimensions because I'm a beginner user?

You'll have to wait a bit please refer to this,
Signature at SevenForums - Create with or without an Image

Just started playing with new border shapes and effects...
Don't really know what else to do on this but please feel free to offer feedback on the little i have done.

A really big issue of mine at the moment is not only my limited Gimp skills which i am working on again now but also artistic ideas.



Cheers,
Jamie

The only thing I would suggest is to up the dpi/ resolution to your starting projects,
The default is a 72.000 which is 72 dpi/ ppi/ resolution,
Curves will look much better at 300 or even 150 will produce a much better curve...

What you need to do is find an image that represents you or your interests( a game or video perhaps) or something related to Windows or Seven Forums to put in the "blank" area.

Yes you will have to wait a bit. Nice design though. It's perhaps a little bit flat. Maybe if the "samurai"? was given a drop shadow to make it pop a bit, or a bit of light and shadow to give it solidity.

This is great advise, i had noticed the edges weren't as smooth and didn't realise the resolution was low, i will do a new test tonight at 300dpi.

I will do this on the next test signature i do, it's area's like HarriePatemans signature i struggle with as he asked for 'Cool' which is where i would need to be creative but struggle, hopefully as i do more and learn more the creativeness will be easier
