Suggestions needed

I'm off to make a signature for my site. I'm a total newbie and I know nothing about PS. But I've used my logo (Thanx alot Justin ) and created this small image:



Now can someone please tell me what to do with it so that I get more 'life' in it ? I've checked some tutorial sites without results.

Well...that would be pretty cool...I'll think about that

I would like to add some filters to the edges of the pic or something to make the pic 'not so perfect' if you know what I mean.

might try downloading some brushes and useing them on a new layer set to about 25% just to give it some extra action without taking too much away from what is alreay there.

Looks great joekim. I would burn the edge of the flower slightly to make it a bit more three dimensional. Looks really nice though, clean simple, and will make a fine sig.

With the burn tool, in Photoshop

I would set brush size to about 5, range to midtones, and exposure to about 30%, then do a single stroke along each petal edge, see if that brings it out ...if you don't like it just , edit/stepbackward, as many times as strokes you made, and start over with different settings... it doesn't hurt to play around with the settings, you can always undo your moves (edit/stepbackward).

If your talking about Photoshop, it's not a free program ... and the brushes JuggoPop was referring to, are Photoshop plugins ..

Personal opinion: the lens flair filter makes you* look like a newbie, avoid at all costs (* you = anyone that uses it)

as far as the choices... #2

and I decided to kill some time playing with it as well... though the matte color may be off...

Well. I told you I was a newbie

Your work looks great BTW. Can you make the last one but with a smaller text down to the right that I had in my version ? The font that is used is 'AsseenonTV'.....
