Super Quick, Super Easy Forum Signature

Welcome to my first instructable ^u^

In this instructable, I show how to make a very basic forum signature / avatar. You will learn how to use transparency and layers too!

So lets get to it.

Open an image you want to use for the background in your favourite art or photo editing program.

Make sure it is on top of the background. To open a new layer, click the button that looks like a sheet of paper with a green plus sign next to it.

Right click the image and select copy. Click the paste button, and ta daa, the image appears. I know it looks funny, but keep going.

On the layers window, click the button that looks like a tag and a pencil. Another window should open up. Slide the opacity down until you like the effect.

Don't forget to save your progress!

Please remember I used Paint.NET.
