IT should be easy enough looking through the stickies, and don't worry, I can't figure it out either, even with tthe guide.

Really? both of you guys gotta talk to me lol. Basically you find a picture(render) then you "render" it which means crop just the figure in the picture. That's the fun part for some or the hard part for others. It should be a smooth edge, but doesnt need to perfect on a count of you need to blend. I use a combo of the "Magic Wand" and the "Lasso" (freehand). I started with the "Extract" filter. Once you have a "Render" you need to make a canvas(new doctument). I 90% of the time use 400 px width by 120 px height px meaning pixels. 300x100 looks good for abstract, and anything bigger then 420x130 looks bad, that's what I feel. I don't really wanna show you how I myself make sigs, 'cause it's my OWN style, I mean It's grunge or abstract or tech, but I have my own way of doing them. I say one thing, for every sig I've made I have started with a "Clouds" layer on the bottom, then made brush layers above the clouds layer.

Sorry if I may have looked very newb but I got PS8 yesterday and I talk french so the words: brushes layers renders for me means about nothing......... =\

Now, I know renders= picture on the sig
brushes= specials effects on sig like wind,etc...
layers= ????

[Anferny]

Brush is the tool that actually brushes. I don't really know how to explain it more then that.
Layers are actually layers like floors on a building. Ill show you an example:
---- Top layer
---- Thrid Layer
---- Second Layer
---- First Layer
Render, I said what it was, it's a picture like in your current sig, I used Dimebag,.
