1) Make your graphic size 2 times bigger then you want it too. And make the background transparent.

2)Start by making a new layer. Shift+Ctrl+N. Then take the Marquee tool and make the size you want. For this one I will be using the rectanular one. But don't fill it all the way. About half and half, like the picture shows.

3)Take the paint bucket tool and fill it in whatever color you want. Then start your brushes and text on it.

4)Now you want to add a border before you add the picture. So do whatever you do to make a border. For simple for look for a tut called Pixel Border on The Core. ;)
5)Now you add in your picture and how you want it.*Make sure you erased all thing that are not suppose to be in the picture. It looks nice that way. :) .
6)Once you made it to your liking, it will look great and you have just made a Pop-out signature. Save on .png for clearer graphic.
This is how mine turned out:

Very helpful. I've been wondering how to do that ever since I saw Green Day Fan's sig by Slayer.

Thanks. :wacko:

You should save it as .GIF with no background for the people in IE. :)
