Here's a few tips, I gotta be quick cuz I have an interview.
Go search on deviant art or google for stock photos. These can really add to a BG. I used ice and snow when I first started out. If you can't use brushes, use these, and erase and blend.
Stop cropping NOW, from now on cut every character out, and make a BG from scratch. I know you like to leave some BGs in, but in my opinion they aren't really sig worthy. You have the determination and potential to make really good BGs and signatures, so break out of the habbit of making sigs like those 2 vampire sigs and that last one.
My stuff was crap too, it sucks that I don't have any or I'd show them. I reallt suggest you look around for a better version of photoshop, then you can use brushes and expand, much like Ballofire did =P.

Uh, Tom, I was explaining that I meant you USED to use brushes because you sounded like you were trying to correct me when I know full well that you don't anymore.
I know I still use brushes, doesn't mean I suck, if you notice I've kind of stopped doing anything graphic wise for a long time.

Hey, I never said you suck. I was stating a fact.
And you never made your point clear.

When you say render what do you mean, Borgos?
I'm not here to fight, I'm here as an artist.
Renders are pictures extracted from photos.
Stocks are the photos themselves.
Also, using pictures off of DA, without the creator's consent, is technically illegal.

Techniqually, but people still do it.
And there are different terms for renders, such as a render from 3Dsmax, or as you described, or how Max described.
Anyway when I did use stockphoto's I would use this one site I joined that gave them free, but I don't know the url anymore. And I didn't say he should steal them =P if he wanted to he could ask.
