Second one is better.
Also, you misspelled your name in the title. Nice.

I'm not an expert on this at all but I think you should have done more the the text on the first image...doesn't look like it fits. Try adding some filters and effects and it should turn out nicely. Great job on both though.

I would say the second one is better, and you do have potential if you put enough effort into it.

Second one is MUCH better. And ya, you have potential. Just play around with tutorials and shiit like that and you'll get good fast.
Just saw your above comment. Its because the first one is SO generic. I personally hate lightning bolt graphics, yet a lot of people like them.

Not bad for a starter but FOR THE LOVE OF GOD do NOT use lightning brushes. They look cool, but are overused, trite, and generally look really unprofessional.

I don't have a lightening brush. I used the lightning pattern for one layer and a Starbust logo for the other.

If you want Photoshop I already added you on MSN. I also have a bunch of plug-ins and add-ons if you want them.

a Starbust logo for the other.
I read this as: "a Starburst logo for the other." and I went back up to see the Starburst, but I didn't see it, so I came back down and saw that you said Starbust not Burst. lol

Star scape on the first and comic book on the second...
That was a little lazy >_>
Oh well, the second looks pretty cool so lazy or not who cares \._./
I personally used GIMP on my own sig and find that GIMP works just fine if you don't feel like loading photoshop (Or don't have it...) but I suggest switching to PS if you want to do a lot better...
Google the words Adobe_CS3_Master_Collection_Corporate_ISO._Works_. 3907426.TPB and you may come across that torrent. I used it to get my copy of PS, but it may not be active any more. Still worth a try though...
So, yeah, keep working on it ^_^;
Edit: Or if you manage to contact me, I could just send you the torrent >_>

Everyone has potential if you ask me.
What program do you use? Photoshop I think?
I'm sure you can fine tutorials and such.
Also, just play around with all the effects, you learn a lot actually.
Or at least, that's how I learn.

I use GIMP, since it's free. However, what I may do, if I can get free Photoshop, is switch off between the two. But, I'll have the try Photoshop before I make any decisions.
