| Well i made this partly coz' i was bored... and partly coz a lot of people want to know how to make stuff on PDN.
This is going to be my bottom siggy

| Spoiler: | | | To make it you will need paint.net v3.20 and the plugins Water reflection and weave and emboss You can find these on the pdn forums:
Water reflection: http://paintdotnet.forumer.com/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=2911
Weave: http://paintdotnet.forumer.com/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=21750
Emboss: http://paintdotnet.forumer.com/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=21180
If you don't know how to install a plugin: http://paintdotnet.forumer.com/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=2023
This will be the final product:

1. Take a new canvas, 500 x 100

2. Fill the background red

3. Go to Effects> Render> Weave. Use deafault settings

4. Effects> Blurs> Motion blur :MotionBlur: . Angle 25.00, Distance 200

5. Add new layer:

6. On the new layer, fill the background, but fill mode: Dark Upward Diagonal

7. Effects> Stlyize> Emboss. Angle - 37.00

8. Double-Click on Layer 2, Or press F4, Change the layer mode to: Overlay

9. Layers> Merge Layer Down, Control + M

10. Effects> Distort> Water Reflection
 You should have this:

11.Add a new layer.

12. Fill the new layer with red.

13. Double-Click layer 2, or press F4 and set the blend mode to: Difference

14. Merge the layer down
15.Add a new layer.

16. On the new layer, draw a rectangle, it doesn't matter which colour. Do pixel width: 4

17. Effects> Stylize> Emboss. Angle - 37.00

18. Double-Click on layer 2, or press F4 and set the blend mode to: Overlay

19. Merge layer down
20. Add new layer

21. On the new layer, Write your text.

22. Effects> Photo> Glow. Use full settings

23. Merge layer down.

And your done! |
This is going to be from my old shop, which is locked now It should be easier to follow 
This is going to be type 2 from my old shop 
This is going to be 'How to use the Outline object Plugin'
| Spoiler: | | | You'll need to get the Outline objest plugin From here: http://paintdotnet.forumer.com/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=5715&hilit=Outline+Object+Plugin
If need to know how to download a pluign: http://paintdotnet.forumer.com/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=2023 Or here: http://www.tehchillout.com/general-art-f14/adding-fonts-and-plugins-to-paintnet-t1016.htm
Here we go 
Make a new canvas 500x200
 First you make a random background, i chose this:

Then go to google, or any other search engine and get an image, with a white background
Then copy it, go to Paint.NET and Press Contol+Alt+V to get it into a new pic

Then use Magic wand at around 40%

Hit Delete

Do the last two steps until all the background is Checkerboard (Transparent)

Go to Effects> Object> Outline Object and Use these settings:

You should have:

Press Control+A to select all, then Press Control+C To copy, Then go to your image, Add a new layer, On the New layer, Press Contol+V to Paste (You may have to resize the image, after pasting it)
Hopefully you will have:

Add a new layer, Now Add some font:

You can also outline this font, like i did:

And You're done!  |
This is how to make another cool siggy 
I think that's all 
I'm sure CC will have something to say  _________________

| I un-stickied it because soon everyone will start making tutorials and it'll be unfair for it to be stickied whilst all other tuts aren't.
We should make a tut subforum, then it can be stickied. _________________

| Yes, but soon they will, and they'll be millions of people treated 'unfairly', and they're going to form an evil mob of injustice!

| CC if you think properly, nobody will do any more tutorals. Most people here arn't even good at PDN.
The only decent people are you and Dobby. Then Boopy and Me. Lets just keep this stickied and let Dobby get his way. _________________

| Fine, fair enough.
Anyway, as I said before, it could be a bit shorter and still achieve the same results. _________________
