i used photoshop 6.0 Beta and guess what i used text this is what I wrote "Mous4u Gohan" then i tryied to save but it was grey so i couldnt use it help please!!! :cry::cry::cry:
How was it grey? Was it visible? It could be on an underlying layer.

Photoshop 6.0 Beta is quite old - have you tried using GIMP yet? The UI is a little more friendly. Photoshop isn't really something most people jump into.

Photoshop is really easy, you just need to spent a little time learning the tools, which isn't hard at all. Other than, trial and error all the time.

Photoshop 6.0 is ancient though. Better off with either CS2 or CS4.

True enough, but the transition from MS Paint to Gimp is easier than MS Paint to Photoshop for first time users. :)

Offtopic: damn your signature. I just got that song out of my head. :-/

He replaced the red letters, dam.
It still looks like it needs some work though. That little minor detail really didn't help much.
There's too much leftover blue. Personally, I would cut around the edges of the central circle, as well as the "wings", leaving the gold with a blue outline. The rest of it just make it transparent.

The background still sucks (mainly because it is exactly the same), and it is still saved as a really crappy low quality Jpeg.

http://www.pixel2life.com/tutorials/gimp/

Check that site, maybe someone has made a Gimp signature tutorial. Can't help you any further with that though, since I use Photoshop myself.

Transparency in between layers provide a lot impact to a signature...he didn't apply it... :p

Apparently the GIMP can only save JPEGs with really ****ty quality. There are JPEG artifacts all over the place.

I reduced the quality to lower the size of the pic...or else it was exceeding 26 kbs...which is the limit for this forum...

Uhm no, forum limit for signatures is 200kb, if that limit is still even in place.

*Edit*
Upped to 600kb I just noticed.
