Dearest Petey;

The first one...I actually DO like this one, except the metallic color it progresses into gets really choppy and bad. Overall, not bad.

The second one, I don't like one bit. >> The edges of the...whatever it is, are very choppy. It's too pixelly, and I hate the font. I usually tend to stick with...smoother, more standard font.

Since you want to work on backgrounds...

Here's your next assignment.

Take this;

Use it in the signature.

No text.

Make the background out of the image.
