I'm getting better at this

Can someone please rate my new sig (Bottom) and Avatar

My original sig needs some cutting, once I do it, i'll show you all.

For my avatar, you'll need Firefox or a decent PC to get the best view of it (The backgrounds transparent)

While I love how the sig looks, the font is kind of unclear and a border around the edges would make it look great. Fading could also be done, but this is really just a bunch of nitpicking. Its good but the only thing that really bugs me is the font and no border, other than that it's pretty good.

Yeah. Border is something that's a pet peeve of mine. I actually went through a lot of annoying re-making of stuff to get a border around Joe's. Since it's animated. It was worth it though. I try to put a border on pretty much everything I make. He's right about the text. And an overlay and some smooth blending would make it even kooler. Overall, it looks good right now though. And I love the avatar. The emblem looks awesome.

Alright, i'll work on that tomorrow..I've actually overlaid the cave wall, Background and Aisu, so I don't think i could do that without making it like unrealistic (Aisu is supposed to look like he's covered in the sunset.)

But, i'll add a border and fix the text..any ideas what would make for a good border for it?

I wouldn't do a complicated border. I usually just do like a 1 pixel black or white border. It just helps it look refined.

And the spot that needs some blending is the middle part of the cavewall, maybe some smooth brushing to clean it up. Also some spotlight effects on the Aisu layer could add to it. To make the sun effect more dramatic. And a general overlay of a basic color usually makes stuff come together well. That'd be what I'd probably do at least.
