Re: Signature Maker!?!

Twiddly, if you still want it, try using GIMP. It's free and light, and if you use it right, as good as Photoshop.

http://www.gimp.org/
Here are some tutorials for it.

You may have to fiddle around with it for a while before you get the hang of it.

Re: Signature Maker!?!

Heh, yeah, at first it's a pain in the butt. I'm still getting used to it, but it'll be like that for most image manipulators.

Nah, its just different and takes some getting used to.

Never having used Photoshop probably helps too.

Re: Signature Maker!?!

I've never used PS either (the high price is kind of a putoff to students ... and most people with a budget, unless they want it pirated). GIMP is really frustrating in the begining but once you get the hang of it, it's really quite fun. (Heck, that pretty much describes 95% of all linux software, including the kernel itself. )
