Make it a bit more constructive please dude, it's not gonna help him improve is it?

I like it, although as someone already said, more color and the animation really spoils it

Thanks, Aries.

Originally I had the signature highly saturated with.. blue. I desaturated it since I liked it more that way. The original photo of the singer was blue/purple. I made the background blue because, at the time, it looked like it blended best.

Here's what it looked like prior to desaturating it.

Hmm , open the non .PSD version of it ,

add a gradient channel layer to black and white it.

Then add a colour balance layer and see what it looks like in red...
I still think you should remove the animation....

Nice aries Lulz , Class me as 'someone' =D

it would look better without the animation, backround animations never look good in sigs to me tho. Im more fond of animations that are added to the main objects.

Sweet sig, I can't help but think that it would've looked better if the "Icon" and "Coil" text's where set to white.

OnT: Sig is kickin' it mate, though IMO the animation kills it. Take it away and it'll be perfectomento.
