Hi, I am not a newb to hacking but when it comes to GFX I don't know up from down. Please don't simply say, "thats crap" tell me how to improve.
BTW. It was designed with this site in mind
I'm not that good with gfx either but go here for brushes:

and find a good tut to show u some of what to do to make a good sig.
As a newb to photoshop I recommend initially playwith filters and layer styles to get some more 3-D effects and what not. Once you have the ability to create a decent sig using those styles, you would then move onto brushes and patterns.
Use this link :- www.Good-Tutorials.com to get inspiration on ideas. Because no matter how hard you try to replicate something it will turn out different.
Then this :- www.GameRenders.com to get some gaming charecters or images that people have allready rendered (rendered as in cut the charecter out of the background). Also use the forums as that's where the wider majority of renders are from user submittions.
Then a personal tutorial of mine:- www.FlashGFX.co.uk/revolution/tutorials/1.zip I wrote this tutorial to show people how to use 2 simple and effective effects on photoshop. Pixel stretch and Pop out sig. Enjoy!
By all means, I have lots of brushes - Custom made also. And if you would like help with more aspects of photoshop, just message me on MSN or whatnot.
