# of Steps: 4
Program Needed: Photoshop (7.0 Preferred.)

Step One: Now you should Open a New Document, around 400x150 makes a good Anime Grunge Signature.
Now, Get some Awesome Grunge Brushes, Deviantart, sigsource.tk and others are good sources, now, Fill it up with some Grunge:



Step Two: Now, Open up an anime image, i used Trigun:

Here!

Step Three: Now! You Might want to Desaturate your Anime Image, Image=>Image Adjustments=>Desaturate (Check if it looks good without desatureization!) Than, use Color Balance, ctrl+b, OR, use my prefferred way: Go to the "Create New Fill Or Ajustment Layer" button, click, go to Color Balance. Fiddle around with that.



*Note: You May Want to use The same steps to Color Balance but instead of Clicking Color Balance Click Curves, Add Brightness/Darkness to it to spiff it up.*

Step Four: Now we have it all, Add some Nice text, a Good Border and walla! Your Finished!



Edit, Ooh, crap, ment Signatures!

Ugh, to Mods, sorry bout deleting and remaking, kept messing up the title...

Great Tut Anubis. This is how mine came out. It's nothing compared to yours though.

I added some extra images and I chose a diffrent color as you can see. But it's alright.
EDIT-It's preety ruff around the edges though.

hmmm, all green seems tacky.... work on the colours a little more, contrast them more





Nice tut anubis, very nice.

hmm, I`m gonna edit this tutorial, look out.

As i dont like the Brushed Cloud-Like effect anymore.

and people: PLEASE DONT JUST USE THE CLOUD EFFECT. it looks a little tacky now, Try different things, venture out into the wild and try on some things. Tech Brushes, More Grunge, Rendering for heavens sake. Just dont stick with one thing.

Yeah, thats uh, what i was gonna say!!!
