Do you usually make your sig, or use an existing picture?

Sometimes I make them, and sometimes I just crop an image and add text if I feel there's nothing meaningful I can add to the picture.

Mine are always photomanipulations. Now that I have a nice camera, I will most likely use my own photos. I did in my last sig, but I changed sigs about five minutes ago.

My style is easy to identify... I am probably the only one with that artistic touch.

Sometimes I use an existing pic and sometimes I use a sig I made myself. But I haven't made one if forever. I don't really care.

I just crop and resize them. I used to do some stuff when I had Adobe Elements, now I have PS 7.0 and find it a pain to use...I preferred the simpler version.

I use pictures for characters/main themes, but the backround, styles, and effects are custom made.

I got this picture and made it the right size to put into a gamespot signature. I edited the words into the top left corner though...and even that was a picture.

I don't have the artistic skill to make my own images so I just take what I find on the internet, cut it up and make it look interesting (like pretty much everyone else on the internet). I want to try my hand at drawing but I just don't have any time.

Who would edit a picture of a galaxy? The things are too beautiful to improve:P Occasionally I'll do a bit of GIMP work on a sig, but my last couple have just been text added to existing pictures.

If I had photoshop my sig would be much more elaborate, but alas, all I have is paint. I just took an existing picture and edited it, placed a border, and added my username. I still think it came out okay though. :P
