Here is a sig I made. Took an old artwork into a new one.

If you guys are wondering how I made this, I will link you to the tutorial if it gets accepted to P2L. I hope it does, I spent a great deal of time explaining how to get everything just right.

wow, the water effect looks great. Looking forward to read your tut :)
The main problem I see in your sig is its size: 865.43 KB (886200 bytes)

the water effect is easy

dunno if thats what you are using but looks like it, you need to make the selection inside the border so it doesn't make the border watery too.
The rest of the banner is nice, good theme.

Yea, most animated sigs have a large file size.

I noticed the problem with the border. I dont mind, I made the sig for testing purposes for this effect. Thanks for pointing it out though.

Great sig, it just needs to be smaller, and have a solid border. Then it'd be fantastic, really well done!

Looks not bad but the file size as everyone has said is far too big, theres quite a few tutorials floating around the web using Sqirlz Water Reflections I guess everyone fails to see they have official tutorials on the website.

I done my first one like this back in the 1990's using the puddler plugin from http://www.mways.co.uk/prog/plugin.php and rewrote it 19mths ago, they're quite easy to do but personally prefer ones done in flash or swishmax for a more realistic water effect.

Your right about that but since most forums dont allow flash sigs, I think having the same effect on GIF is more versatile.
