Thanks guys. I didn't like it as much when I had finished and uploaded it I looked at it and realised I wanted to add more and change some stuff a bit. but if it's my best sig yet, I guess it's best left alone. lol
Thanks alot for the comments though.

To do the ray bounce I duplicated the original text.
The first one I warped into shape and drew a line through it, adding some glowy effects to the blending and the line.
The second, if you can make out ricochetj007, I flipped and smudge/blurred it, then drew a line through that as well..
The part where it connects with his fist is a letter "O" that I enlarged, warped to make elliptical, added effects and gave a little motion blur before smudging it into shape.

I'm sure there are easier, better ways to do things like that, I just don't know them yet. lol

Good job on the text and that ray effect.The render is overblended but I love that you are so new at sigs but are trying smudging.That is one of the harder things to do properly in Photoshop.Nice work man.

I've already spent my quota of cash on computer stuff though. So unless someone buys my ps2 or golf season is cancelled, lol.

The problem I'm having with that is the brushes that do the most damage are huge, so it's hard to control properly. Any tips? If not, I plan on checking out some tuts this week, so hopefully there is a clue in there.

Think the render would have turned out better if I hadn't laid a grayscale copy of the render behind it? I didn't save the PSD so I can't try it out. I have to remember to start doing that.

I'm still trying to absorb as much as I can. I imagine the tuts will help with that.
I'm feeling repetitive, but Thanks again for the comments.
