A few tips =]

-Start with a smaller canvas. Learning to work with a smaller piece will help you when you want to move onto bigger things, bigger sigs, large artwork, etc.
-Refocus your focal! Text shouldn't be the most interesting thing in the signature, or the biggest attraction to the eye. You should supplement the main image with your text. The image is what should communicate, the text is there to support. Otherwise, why design?

Keep up the good effort.

Well, thanks for all the pointers, folks. I'll take them into advisement next time I design a Sig.... Whenever that may be. Been far too busy lately to do anything fun with my computer.

Done over the period of 4 or 5 days, personally quite happy with the result, but any improvements?

Way too dark and black lines are a bit much. More details, less black.

Here is a Photo Manipulation I did on George Clooney,

Spoiler:


I was bored one night and decided to mess around with his face, came up with this.

It was good practice and fun to do.

I used my mouse and PSP9, it was based on a tutorial.
