Simple photoshop signature for beginners

[Consense]

If you know how to use PhotoShop CS5 at all do not look at this tutorial. This signature is as easy as it will get while still looking kind of cool. These are basic techniques. Remember to view the images in full size so you can follow the steps better.

Step 1: Start up PS, press Ctrl-N. Make sure the width and height are both in pixels and change them accordingly to the picture below.

Step 2:Next, press Shift-Ctrl-N and then ok. You now have 2 layers shown in the bottom righthand corner. [/URL]

Step 3: Click on the paintbucket on the left sidebar. Choose any color and use on your signature.

Step 4: Time to get some brushes. http://brushnet.com/?p=999 < Go to this site and click download. Once it's download drag the only "File abr" to C:/Program Files/Adobe/Adobe Photoshop CS5/Presents/Brushes

Step 5: Now press (B). On the right scroll to the bottom of your brushes and find the Circle and Drip brushes(if they are not in there, just restart adobe and they should be in there)

Step 6: Right above your brushes is a little scale to change the size of your brush. I'd reccomend around 80-120px. Decide what colors and what brush you want to use, then use it on your signature.

Step 7: By now your signature look is complete and it is time to personalize it. http://www.dafont.com/ < Go to this site, download any font you want. Go to your control panel then go to the search bar and type font. Drag and drop the font you downloaded in to the Fonts folder. Go back to PS, press (T) and pick your unique font, color, and size up above.

This is my final product. I added a little extra, like some overlapping and a couple effects to make the edge look a little better.


Again, this is only for those who don't know anything about making signatures. If you like it or it helped you, [COLOR="Lime"]cookies and karma are appreciated.[/COLOR]
