Just some I've made, Was wondering how I could improve and such.
Note: I've only been using Photoshop for a couple of weeks so they aren't that great, Also I only spend 5 minutes on each sig.

on each of them, the render doesn't blend well with the background. on the iron man one, the effect that you used is crappy. it doesn't even look good. all the text is bad, and it sticks out like a sore thumb.

Well thanks for being constructive I suppose.
Two questions, What's a good way to make the text look better and what's a good method to make the render blend with the background?

Don't make the text a focal point, and don't use drop shadow/outer glow or stuff like that on your render.

everyone needs to shut up about saying that they spent 5 mins (or less) on their creations. We know you're only saying that just incase you get bad comments, also, if you really did only spend 5 minutes than don't fucking post your crap if you yourself know it's not the best work you can do. Seriously, this shit is pissing me off now

I couldn't care less if I get bad comments or not, I simply posted the 5 minute thing so they take it into consideration.
Also who says you have to comment? If you don't like them then either say what you don't like about them or take a flying fuck.
I posted it so that people can tell me what I can improve on, Not for a dick head to comment about something unrelated to the signatures themselves.

Nonono, the point is, put effort into it.
There's no point critiquing if you're not gonna post your best work.

all of them show a great idea just your having trouble excecuting it. Keep practing and go do tutorials to learn new techniques. Have patience and spend time on your pieces. 5minutes won't show anything close to perfection.

Th first one is ok, but I'm immediately drawn to that ray thing or whatever. Is that supposed to happen.
The second, i reckon the render's been stretched.
The third is just crap.
It gets worse as you go down.

Sorta off-topic:
The only bad part about tutorials is that sometimes people just copy the tutorial exactly and don't really experiment.
Cause sometimes I see a lot of the same type of images.
Preferably I only watch tutorials on how to use tools and filters so you can like control them to your needs.
Anyways,
The Text is a little to "noticeable"
On the First image the first things i notice are.
Laser Thingy
Text
Try to make the Main Person actually stick out then the rest.
Also make the text like"fade,blend" into the background.
The last picture the text is almost to Fine.(As in the sides of the text aren't blurred or anything at all.)
The first picture almost looks like you had a bevel/emboss.
Maybe that's just the render.
Second:
Could be a stretched render.
Whats with the line going though him?
Third:
You know whats wrong with it.
Well that's my review.
Keep practicing!
PS:The borders are a little messed up?

Thanks for the help.
I didn't use a bevel/emboss that was simply the render.
I don't know why everyone is saying the second is a stretched render because I made it smaller and didn't stretch it at all.
The line going through him is part of a C4D.

actually, i think he's right. it's all to do with an optical illusion. so i think that the shape of the sig is stretched, not the render.
@Boiwonder, could you show us the actual render for the second one so we can check it's just our eyes?
