first thing i notice is the font definitely needs working on. and the tech brushes dont 'blend', if you know what i mean. oh and i cant see a border.but other than that, it looks quite good

I like the render used for the bg but you can just have that for the bg, so just d/l some brushes and start brushing over it...as for teh border hit ctrl+a and the go to edit stroke and just set the setting to your likings.

and you gotta duplicate the layer first, doing it on the background doesnt work (well not for me anyway)

The way I make borders is....1. New layer, on top of all others; fill with white.2. Edit>Stroke; 3 pixels, fill BLACK.3. Edit>Stroke; 2 pixels, fill [whatever color dominates your sig]4. Edit>Stroke; 1 pizel; fill BLACK.5. Set the layer to multiply.I like to erase the white in the middle of that layer and set it to screen, though. Just my personal opinion.

so in the end it's exactly the same background with the borders right? edit: just tried it and it is.. why not just duplicate the layer and then stroke it? it's easier and has less steps =)
