Requesting advice.

Alright..so im not really good at photoshop..tried it just a few times. And i wanted to try to create a new sig, however, i know it needs to be improved, i just not sure exactly what and how, so i'd like to hear anyones opinion to help me out a bit. Heres what i got so far...thanks ahead of time for any advice ;D

You should add a fog effect, that would make it look awesome.

Filter > Render > Clouds.
Blending options > Remove all Black
Use a black brush to get rid of the parts you don't like.

Thanks, it lightend it up quite a bit. Heres how it looks now..since the fog made the text, really stand out, i turned it down some, probably a bit too much, but thats an easy fix. Btw, what do you think about the text? Does it fit alright with the image? I had a hard time finding one that i liked..lol

well, i can't really see you're name...especially the Y
Try make it stand out more

ahh. The text looks like SPRE. Lol. Maybe try making the text a tad bit darker?

That's a pretty good sig, even though it's not my style :].
Im into motion blurs and grunges.

Thanks, i knew that the y was messed up, just dident mind it much. I found a similar font so i just changed it, and brightend it up a bit. How's it now?

I say darken the uhm thing on the left but leave the background as is or vice versa

[Syre]

Done darkening it..never darkened just a section like that before so hope i got it right...lol i have to make a matching avatar too later..>.<..

That looks awesome.
I love how the wings are darker and how the dark areas give it a shadow affect.

u can spread more the width and blend the render...

that render fit realy good in that background , and i like :3, in some case the render fits better in the center but that render is okay in this place...

u are very good and the shadow effect rulez , u gonna be very good in Photoshop...
