cos i used to be a nub and always requested sigs and got tired of getting wank ones back lol so like they say , if you want a job done right do it yourself
I am a coder guy but I have been interested in doing designs myself so that I don't need to wake for gfx designers to make one for me I am a work in progress
I suppose it was all down tot he guys at Friendcodes.com. There are a lot of talented designers there (would give the people here a good run for their money I believe) and seeing all their stuff made me decide to give it a go. That was just under a year ago and here I am now. They all use PS now and I GIMP but oh well.
im no designer either lol but i do love to play around with ps. just got fed up asking people to make stuff for me and had some free time so stardted to design my own stuff lol
