I understand you said simple approach. But I think you went too simple. For a "calling card" like signature. Though I dont know your work. looking at your signature I wouldn't click your link or go to the site. But I'm so unimpressed by the signature. Its nothing against you. You may do great work. But this signature doesn't show it, or show me you've got something I need service wise.

The black and white lines. Took me a bit to realize that was actualyl SR. Inversing that and using the black characters. And maybe some kind of boarder as well. That would be a start IMO. Wait to see what others say. In no way was I trying to be harsh if it may have come across that way. Using a signature for your business is just like a business card. if its dull and looks like crap. People can be uninterested right there. Even if you are the best of the best in what you do. Now that my be me as well. If I go to a website that looks like trash. I don't go back. Now that could be my own ignorance. But its personally how I feel about things.

I appreciate the comments and now that you point some of the flaws out I can understand another's point of view. Which is why I posted it on this forum. The SR is my logo and yes you have to think about it to get it, but I like that. The rest of the signature at that scale doesn't totally read well, which I should of seen sooner. I will wait for more comments before starting up a new signature, but good tough love comments are what make things better.
Thanks for the honesty.
