I chose this 3 sigs to be your best ones :)

The first sig looks good, but that text :\
You need some text tutorial...

The second would be cool if the border and the text were black instead of blue IMO, the rest of the sig is good :)

The third needs more work in the background, render on the left is out of proportion, and you don't need the render in the right side of the sig...

The reason the third is bad is because I'm not that good at cutting textured characters out myself. The second, I'm now working on another version.

The first, can you recommend me to some good GIMP friendly tuts?

C'mon guys, I know it's bad...but is it so bad you can't critique it? :X
Sorry man, we got carried away with our conversation. :lol:
Yeah, I would also give it a 7/10. The Sig is cool but it does look kind of bright. The background is great, as usual. Its not your best work, but a great piece nonetheless.

Definitely the second one is the best one :)

For improvements in the second sig, first you need to add contrast to the renders and bg, also some lightings, I see you have three renders in the bg... if I were you, I would play with them, using filters, some glass, displace, noise, blurs, wind, and so many other things... also add blending options in those renders, keep in mind that the main render, the centered one, needs to be the most visible and noticed, for that, move the left one a bit to the corner, make it a little bit small (maybe the same size as the other render in the bg) and then make the centered one much bigger...

You will find a thread by Brawny in the Design Lounge that has good GIMP tutorials.

I hope that you work a little bit in the second sig, because that was a really good one :]

The depth in it is good....but it's very....boring. :/ Looks like when you leave your computer on for too long and those random pipes start shooting up all over your screen. :lol: I can't really tell you to do anything to it, as there is nothing to do....but it's going to be hard to find a render that goes with it...:/

Long story short, I think pipes are annoying.
 
LOL, I know what tutorial you used for that..........

@ Dani99el......that just made me the best (imo) gimp user? unless there is a guy who I don't remember.
