Well define "cool"
I think you'll have a hard time!
It really is best if you try and make your own through experimentation, and avoid looking at tutorials. That way it makes you feel so much better when (not if) you make something good, quirky and funky!

draw with a few different brushes on a few layers (colours up to you), add sum filters, change the layer type (multiply and stuff like that), and keep on tweeking it till it looks good, thats what i do.....
that sig u made the background isnt briliant, its a little too simple and i dont think its random enough, thats the problem with it imo....... keep trying and u'll get a lot better.....

well when i started out making sigs i just used gradient effects(Not just one gradient stroke) and different filters to make my sigs backgrounds Ive since grown out of that..Hope that helps and your current sigs background is plain and doesnt fit goku or vegeta..

hmm.. its a little better but the background is still 2 plane. Try using more filters next time but still thats an improvement.

Lens flare = death

Try reading some tutorials.. LOTS of tutorials, and combine all the effects into something that looks good.
