Well I'm going to give you a bit of constructive criticism to help you out. First things first, if you choose a B&W/B&G concept, there's no need to incorporate colors until you're a bit more experienced (just keep practicing). The focal is wayyyyy too big. If you're going to add a focal, unless it's a LP, you should scale it down. You can always re-size to your liking, as long as it doesn't take up half of the canvas. Try to use more vivid effects rather than just brushing, (I'm assuming you brushed a bit, but I could be wrong) like c4ds or fractals. I personally like to incorporate other stock images that may add flow and something to take out the negative space. You personally have left a lot of negative space in there, and that is very distracting to someone viewing the signature for criticism purposes. If you're going to use color, use some that complement eachother. And remember, if you're going to add text, add it last! You're still learning, so it's alright. Keep doing photoshop!

Im a graphics moderator on another site lol, this is just a very plain sig because I was going for simplicity.
see some of my other stuff isn't horrid

I'm not criticizing your artwork, but the colors need more vivid colors and effects. One thing you're lacking is contrast. These seem dull without color and contrast. I'm trying to help you improve. I'd like to see if I could help, even if it's the slightest bit.

or you COULD just listen to his advice and make a better tag

 

Looks to me like you could do with studying some colour theory. You'll thank me later.

I think the colors look fine, but thanks for the advice I will take it into consideration.
vert- I dont see how I need color theory the colors work fine?
iridescent is a mix of cool colors or can be like when you heat I believe it is copper it turns that purple, blue, and green depending on the angle of the light refraction.
So color theory would have me use cool colors and green blue and purple are in the same spectrum if I remember sitting through that class right.
I mean I could be wrong =P

 

My feedback still stands. Colour theory can take you a long way.

You seem to be very pigheaded about this, so I am not going to say anything about color - but your effects need a lot of work. Right now all I see is a bunch of textures and splatter brushes and little to no composition. They're all super flat and severely lacking in depth, as well as flow, and there is no lighting in the piece. Your signatures are just vomit right now which means that there is no meat to them, just a bunch of effects piled on top of each other all willy-nilly.

Eh I take your notes into consideration, I will however do what pleases me If you dislike what I post you dont have to look at it.
Besides why should my work be like everyone elses =P

Bro. If you don't allow constructive criticism to help you out, you aren't going to go anywhere. Your colors are dull, and that's clear. You don't see anybody bashing on your work to discourage you, but only to help. If you don't take other artist's opinions into consideration, you'll go no where. You're being ignorant with the "Why should my work be like everyone else's." That's just a crutch to not listen to people because you don't like their criticism which is trying to help you. Now, if you'd read some of the replys, you'd realize that there's a tremendous amount of things that you should to do actually improve. If you do listen, good for you. If you don't, stick to your moderator duties at your other forum where you feed off of positive replies like "cool sig broski." I'm not trying to be mean, but you should take into account that you can only get better by listening to people who actually know what they're talking about.

Your work shouldn't be like everyone else's, but it doesn't have to suck. They're a basic principles that make a signature look better and general artistic rules that make something more pleasing to the eye. Right now you are just being a 12 year old and refusing to listen to us because we aren't saying what you want to hear. Most of us start off there, and then we eventually learn that there will always be things to learn and those that are better than us to learn from.

Fibonacci's Spiral, Rule of Thirds, Color Theory, Depth of Field, and many more artistic principles that cause all work (in any kind of art) to look better.

If you don't want crit, don't post here.
