This should be in Discussion, bud. I can't really suggest many major tips. For one thing, your text shows up too much. It doesn't blend. You need to read up tutorials for blending text into sigs.

I agree with Virt - the text does lose a lot of it's appeal there, especially the "Graphics artist" text with is horrendously hard to read It's all a learning curve, and with practice you'll work out what effects work well and what is "too much"

Imo, i would leave text out until your more advanced. I'm not a fan of glow since it looks stupid in almost everything.
