Im not pro, but I can suggest this:
- you could have added some effect in the center of the hand and/or his chest
- maybe add some C4D renders
- maybe decrease font opacity

Overall, I like it. Font is good, (thou I like to add stroke on font), blending into the background is perfect, bluring is good, and there is visible focal point.
There is just no flow.

Take a look at this tutorial (http://fc01.deviantart.com/fs45/f/2009/122/b/f/Time_Shift_Tutorial_by_Z_Hou.png), its very very good. Its for advanced users, I think you can handle it. You must know how to use Liquify tool and how to place C4D renders.

nope.  Its the last thing i add to my sig.  Just text tool, no effects, why?

Wow good eyes lol i didnt notice that.  I think imageshack does this coz the jpeg file on my computer doesnt have it.  Even my SOTW entry got this sharpen around font thing....i think i uploaded with "optimize without resize" option and maybe it sharpened the whole image.

Very good. I like it! Far better than IronMan signature.
Nice focal, blending, smudgeing, bluring, good light source, and I adore that white line that goes from his arm to the text.

Maybe you shouldnt use fire stock, it doesnt blend that much in this signature as it blends in the tutorial. Maybe you should decrease opacity, a bit?

And yea, space stock rocks ;)
