Same but - Droid. (Searched everwhere, and they are pretty bad to be fair. Only want a good Photo Editor, canvas or being able to cut and paste objects etc)

I'm sure iOS has some sweet app to use.

If you're talking about forum signatures, which I assume you are, you can't really make signatures on a device.

You have to use a pc or mac. I use paint, which comes with all pc's, most people probably use photoshop. There are lots more such as paint.net, which is exactly like photoshop but free. It's just personal preference.

As for apps? I like brushes, but thats just me.

I have that too Mitch. Just not the same as GIMP lol. (Too basic for me, though it's whst I use atm)

An awesome, drawing App is SBMX, best drawing App I have come across.

It works, but isn't the best obv over using PC.

Still does most things needed.

I was positive iTunes would have something better than thst though. RedRyder would be your best bet, he loves his Apps.

I do my sigs on mac...

Not in photoshop tho - in Keynote app which i mastered doing my presentations :D

The main useful feature i use is 'instant alpha' - to remove color by selecting it - it allows pictures to have natural edges, not a square ones..

I will b really thankful for a good clue on the i-app that can do 'alpha'

Until someone makes an awesome Photo Editing App :p

And there are many other programs to use rather than pay an arm and a leg for PS.

GIMP is one of my fav over any program, Used to be PaintShopPro (Old School). Even Paint. online is enough to make pro Sigs, as they are so small.

Gimp is pretty good too , but photoshop offers so much more than any other graphic editing software out there. Well worth its hefty price tag.

If you planning to draw your sig then speak RedRyder as mentioned above. He has some crazy skills.

Agreed on both counts (:

But if you are literally going to use it for a Sig only, PS seems a little over the top. (Unless getting into Photo Editing as a whole)

Have you seen the GIMPShop? Ignore the name lol, it has pre-made graphic designs such as Font/Brushes/Styles etc. (Good for Sig use, for beginners)

500x100 can not exceed 15.0 kb

If you do go over 15kb you will need to convert it.

Haha, everyone has to start somewhere (:

To resize a pic, i use "Photo Editor" with the resize option you need to untick the "aspect ratio" so you can get the size needed. Then save and open on Pics art to finish off. (Wish Picsart allowed you to turn off aspect ratio would be much easier)

6: Added Name

Aslo, Gimp is for Laptops (Mac), and Windows

Yes, the program you gave me worked out fine, haven't tested it out yet...
