I really like the sigs you make, id like to start making some for myself. I just wanted to know what program(s) you use in making them? And what you use for the fonts?

Well there's Adobe Photoshop, Corel Paint Shop Pro (PSP), Paint.NET, and GIMP. Those are the ones I know of. I don't make sigs for people on here, but I use Photoshop myself.  |

I have dabbled with Photoshop in the short years I have been walking on Earth. I'd say it's the easiest out of the most popular bunch (disregarding Paint), which is PSP (Paint Shop Pro) and of course Photoshop. PSP takes a while to get the hang of, well it did for me atleast. So if you're looking to get a program for yourself, I'd definitely recommend Photoshop. Although PSP has greater editing aspects, they're harder to learn, and I wouldn't recommend it to newbies of the Photo Editing world. Also, sigs aren't the easiest things to start doing, especially the advanced one's. Just get used to all the tools and what not first, manipulate a picture or something, don't go straight into creating sigs. I also am no good with sigs, I can do pretty much anything with Photoshop, but my sigs are sh*t, hence why I'll be requesting one shortly. -M |

How do you shrink the pic from a big pic, to a sig sized pic like mine that still looks good?

Well, Tyler, you can crop what you want of the image using the crop tool, or you can shrink the image to the canvas size that you chose your sig to be, either one of those methods is fine. Just make sure that your canvas has equal proportions in size so the image doesn't look stretched, squashed etc.
