Well I got bored and decided to make a sig

[Nic]

Addis mentioned the simpsons so i decided id make one. I know it sucks badly..

 

[Dave35k]

i think its decent :good:

 

[Nic]

Thanks - Anyone think it need a border?? I think it needs a border - How do I put just a plain line border on?

 

[matttibb]

Put all the layers together then blending effects- stroke and make it black and as thick as you want it. Usually 1px is enough. I'm writing this from memory btw so i apolagise if it's wrong! :good:

 

[matttibb]

The sig is o so simple but the quotes are amusing :) michael jackson haha

 

[Nic]

lol I know the border thing didnt work :(

 

[matttibb]

One sec, ill open photoshop....

 

[matttibb]

Right get the background layer. Right click on it in the layers pallette and click blending options. Then click on stroke (the actual txt not the checkbox). Make black and 1px and set the position to inside? Hope it works :good:

*EDIT* If it works click my green square :chk:

 

[Dave35k]

[matttibb]

I've never used it but there are countless threads mentioning it in the graphics section. I'll stick to photoshop!

 

[Nic]

to add a 1px border, simply select the bottom layer, the blue in this case, and go CTRL + Click on it to select it all, the go EDIT>>Stroke>>then choose what you wanna.

 

[Nic]

Blending options is grayed out when i right-click :mad:

 

[matttibb]

Is there a padlock next to it?

 

[Sniper]
