Make something good.

Use a glow for the signature, or something similar to antialiasing because those lines don't look really well.
And the avatar... well just change it

i was adding shadows in for the sig and i forgot the middle piece over
the paper.  my bad.  but I DID use anti-aliasing because look at the sexy-
ness of the shadow on that damn sig... but I forgot the glow on the paper
got the shadow but forgot the glow on the paper...

I dislike the avatar really much, it just looks like you've made a boring circle, slapped on a boring gradient on it and put on some overused font that is used in god damn 50% of low quality signatures nowadays. Oh almost forgot, a little too dark shadow.
Most likely the default shadow option with a little changes.

I won't comment that much on that signature, as I like the shape but you should definently fix those lines.
(+the font)

it seems sky didn't catch the point of my last post. i'm not mad if you voted for piss poor, that's why i put it there. and the whole "darn kids, why I oughta!" is a joke referring to a retired old man... hence the "Old" Valiken...
idk. but thanks for pm-ing me sky.

Actually I like the signature. Though this circle wouldn't fit anyone. Circles are "lame", get something more special ;)

Oh, I'm sorry, I'll stop being honest.
Your avatar is great.

I'm just saying, if you think they're that bad, tell me.  I don't want people voting for something and not telling me WHY they voted.  It's blind criticism:
Guy1: What do you think?
Guy2: They suck.
Guy1: Why do you say that?
Guy2: They just do.
This tells me nothing.  If I don't know why they're bad, I can't fix them...

Isn't that enough? Simple is cool, but a plain circle doesn't look good..

You cant make your avatars that big, put small, outlined pixel width text in, scale it down and expect anyone to be able to read it.
Black to white gradients look horrible, fully opaque to fully transparent shadows are improbable - and the brain picks up on it, making it look 'unattractive'.

THE SIGNATURE IS GOOD, it just needs antialiasing and personally I don't like most of the fonts you use.
