As Requested by Rashmin.
Create a new image 348X18
fill with #808080
To make the scanlines first Create a new image 3X3.
Select the Paint brush tool (Set at 1 pixel) and make a diagonal line accross the image. Use either black or white, depending on wether you want them to be light or dark. I'm using white.
click on the forground materials box to open up the materials dialog and select pattern. Set the scanline pattern as your forground. with these settings
Angle:0
Scale:100
Then click on your siggy image, and create a new Layer.
flood fill the new layer.
Reduce the opacity of the layer to about 20
Add your pic
Set the colour #f5f5f5 in your background and fill properties box, and Select the text tool and make these settings. the font I'm using is Visitor
click on the image and type in your text.
You will probably need to zoom in on the text and position it. I Moved the text down two pixels and across 4 pixels to make it even.
Convert the Text layer into a raster layer.
Select the selection tool, and go to Selections > select All. then click on the text layer.
Then go to Selection > modify > Expand, and expand by 1 pixel. then fill the selection around the text with #1f1f1f
Select > none
Positon the text using the move Tool
Create a new Raster Layer, and make a rectangle selection like this, and fill with #ffffff
Select > none
go to Effects > Distortion Effects > Warp, and make these settings
Reduce the layer's opacity to 20
Go to Image > Add Borders, and make These settings
Top: 1
Left: 1
Right: 1
Bottom: 1
Symetric: checked
Colour: #1f1f1f
You can now go to Adjust > Brightness and Contrast, to make the sig lighter
Or Darker
And go to Adjust > Colour Balance > Colour Balance, to change the siggys colour to what ever you like.
