Tis amasin' what you can do with Adobe 5.0, and the magic wand tool!

Um.. it looks fantastic, and I feel bad for making a suggestion as it's minor... but see those jaggies around the pic? It's of another color. Probably through the magic wand tool. What could fix it is to make that same selection and then contract it by 2, maybe 3, pixels. Then feather it by 1, maybe 2, pixels. That might make it look a little neater and cut out.

Minor suggestion. The sig looks wonderful as is. :)

If you use the blur tool around the edges that can usually help too. Nice work tho :D

Never used it, and I doubt I will.

Well, aren't you special? :lol

It's much easier for cutting out pictures than a mouse and lasso :lol I have shakey hands, so I always muck it up somehow with the lasso.

Nah, patience and lasso gives me much better results.

Well, good. But some of us need to have an easier option, lol.

lol. Like me. :) I have shaky hands too, and, as some of my self-made sigs show, I'm not very good w/ the lasso tool...

Only time I ever use the magic wand is when there's a solid BG in the picture already. Then I can select that color only. Then I have to contract it and so on, like I explained to do above, but it's still quicker than lassoing. Though the lasso is a far superior tool for percise selections. Sometimes I'm lazy. :p
