I took a screenshot of my character using the Pocket D transport power. Then I stuck it in Irfanview, sharpened it, and used Edge (I think) filte.

Yep, edge does that effect in Irf. I remember when I used to use irfanview. Some cool effects in there.

Then, I moved my photo skills up to "The Gimp" which is is freeware and is pretty darn good in my opinion.

I made this from scratch in The Gimp. It's easy to learn and doesn't take long to learn how to do well. Take from this signature I made for myself what you want.

My sig on most forums that allow pictures
Note: The picture is kind of gory, and the blurry arms is telekinesis. It's made for an anime called Elfen Lied (One of my favorite animes of all time). Probably not my best signature, but it's my favorite because of the anime I made it for.

I've used Gimp before, actually. Back when I was messing around with doing sprite manipulations. I may download it again, just because while my drawing skills suck rocks, I like messing around with all the different filters just to see what crazy things I can do with the screenshots.

Yea, I really like it. I can't find where I can download Photoshop for free -- even with my resources.

I got the registered full version of FRAPS for free though :P
