The Siggie Pros are having a contest... ABOUT US!!

[U4ea]

OK, maybe not "about" us, but they're using us as the basis for their August siggie contest! WHOO-HOO!!!

 

You can stop in here and check out the thread and rules!

 

I'll post a link when awesome people have thrown some images in for us! Poetstorm says we can vote for the winner! *grins broadly*

 

 

I'm so excited to see what people come up with! I LOVE SIGGIES!!!

How do you make one?

[U4ea]

You find some pics that you have permission to use (sometimes artists give permissions on their sites) and put them together in a photo editing program. :-)

Please direct me to a photo editing program. Thanks.

lol, you have Paint if you have Windows. That'll do some basic stuff. Otherwise, there's PhotoShop (which is expensive) but has a million uses.

 

Those are the ones I know!

You can use GIMP as well. My siggy making mentor, Ithi, has put together a nice tutorial if you want to learn...

Thank you! I'm having some medical issues but I'll try to go through it.

I knew there would be someone who was more thorough at an answer than me! :) Thanks, Boopsy! ;)
