First Sig ever....da1anonliib

IP: BCB7 38DB

I made this sig for the one and onlii. He asked me in class the other day. Ive never really done anything like this. Im self taught in photoshop and didnt use any Tutorials to do this. I did it on my own. I cut biggy out using a magnetic lasso and putting him on a white background and bluring him into it then sharpening it then using the magic wand to get him out... Then i made the border from a rectangle-i dont know if thats the actual way your supposed to but yeah. I made the background transparent for the "hang over" effect and i Dropped shadowed the fonts to make them more noticeable. For some reason when i save it its not staying transparent. Can anybody help me?

background looks transparent to me...
the cut's pretty bad tho
u should use the polygonal lasso tool for cutting out the pic
zoom in to about 500% and cut along the edge
it takes longer, but works SO much better
u also shud blend in biggie's right shoulder, cause the pic got cut off there
n for the border, u do this:
1. make a new layer
2. ctrl-click the sig bg (if u got ps) to select it, than go to edit>stroke to make ur border
