Please rate.. I just made this and it's one of my better sigs. Rate on a scale of one to ten.
Btw, this was made on gimp.

You can't see the Scizor? Maybe you should get some glasses.
I just walked about 15 yards from my monitor and I could still see the scizor.. :/

I really like it. The colours used, and the star-thingy, looks amazing. Scizor looks cool too...but there is too much...unused space. Maybe if the Scizor was bigger...?
9/10

I think its the colors and light and dark used when you changed the blending mode(I'm assuming thats what you did, it looks like it) that made the dark parts show through the Scizor. If you used blending modes, if there is one called 'screen,' it might make the scizor easier to see, but then again, it could make it too white.
Where do you get your backgrounds?

I kind of agree with that, but I don't know what I'd put in the empty space.. suggestions?
dragonite: I like how the Scizor looks... I used the layer mode "burn". That's my favorite layer mode.. for some reason. I make all of my backgrounds.

I think its great, 10/10.
Suggestions for things in the spare space:
Well I really like that star you can see in the spare space; seeing as its the only one. It makes it really effective. I was thinking you could either add some more stars, make scizors slightly bigger or put a badge that has the same type of shades as the shades in your sig.

It looks nice for a beginner's sig. If this isn't one of your first, however, you may need to work on a lot of things, namely: proper brushing to create effective backgrounds, and blending techniques so you can make that Scizor image look better with your background. So, for a beginner 7/10 but if you're someone who isn't quite new I'd give it a 1/10.

I would STRONGLY urge you to NOT use brushes to make backgrounds. Signatures made in this fashion are so similar, I could look at 100 of them and see no real defining difference, nor say that a different person made each one.
A LOT of people do this: They brush a background. They colour it. They slap on a render. They set the render to a blending mode or none at all (which is if anything worse) and then slap text on. And maybe add some cliche tech crap to it. Do NOT go down this route! It is a hard habit to get out of once a lot of people tell you that you make good signatures with it. I used to do that too, but that was before I saw how much I could do with Ps. Experiment and please try to NOT brush a background. Only use brushes for special effects.

I like it 9.3/10. Oh and Burn is my favourite layer to but can you change the color of the burn?

Look in the stickies. Some very generous members have compiled a whole crapload of quality tutorials into the stickies in here, and I've learned alot of tricks from them.

Th sig is fantastic! 9/10! Maybe you could add some text. Something more than a name, or make the name bigger.
