I suggest opening a new file, any size, then add a black dab and experiment with every single filter. There aren't too many tutorials that are for basics, because most are for photo touch ups.
Thanks Purgeandfire. I did what you said, not to all tools, but for the better part of them.
Now, however, I looking for tutorials that could, perhaps, teach me other ways to create signatures, becasue at the moment I know only one way, and the more, the better.
For example, using brushes to create a background, I never used this tool yet, and I would be happy to learn how to use it well, I couldn't find a tutorial for that in the "Tutorials." thread. Tutorials regarding these kind of subject...
If anyone could link me a tut that would be great.
I don't think I'm dealing with quite the same pressures though, at the very least its a significantly smaller system. For the time being I'm just going to put together a quick scrubby box though and hope it works good enough to not make my house toxic
I do know this - xenforo dropped the ball by not keeping the vbulletin reputation comments as a feature. The loss of the Reputation comments data when we switched to Xenforo really was the death knell for the site when it came to all the users that left. I know I missed it so much and I got way less interested in the site when that feature was gone and I run the site.
