That's much better with the render standing out more.
Try taking colors from your render and make them as the backround (my tutorial covers that) and you can use brushes and change the layer modes to make it have the colors and have the brushed look.
EDIT: By the way, I like how you blended the render into the backround color. How did you do that?
You must not have GIMP then. It takes the alpha in the layer (transparency) and adds it to your selection. Also when I said blended into the backround I meant the colors, not the outline.
Ghan has said he has fixed this. Monovertex please confirm this fix. This was only a problem with people that had signatures in the upper levels like not the special members but the respected members.
