First of all you need a lot of patience.Secondly five or ten cans of beer it depends on how complex a siggy has to be.Sometimes a break is needed as well.The rest is a piece of cake.

Hi guys here is another siggy design. BUT how do you get rid of the straight lines to big back to the drawing board

You mean the border? Okay, here a tutorial from me how you could do this in Paintshop pro, just to get some of you under way:
1. I've loaded your picture in Paintshop
2. Created a "Pictureframe on a new layer on top of the picture and also made a "Mask layer on top of both layers.
3. After making the pictureframe, I selected the white part with the "Magic wand" selection tool and pressed <CTRL>+<C>
4. Selected the Masklayer and pasted the frame I copied in 3 on the Masklayer. After pasting, I choose the function "Negative" to make the white black.
5. Deselected the stuff and saved as a png file for transparency and see the result.

After all this you probably would like to redo the text

imalko, I'm kinda partial to line drawing, especially pen&ink as I was supposed to be a graphics artist in my younger days. Oh well.

Marcel, I have a headache. I never knew thats what I'm doing when I'm doing it!

Nice one, Wojtek. I like that effect with one corner of picture bend. Similar as with Wayne's siggy.

 

[Wurger]

THX Igor. I know the Wayne's siggy as well because it's my project...

 

[imalko]

I knew that, that's why I mentioned it...

 

[imalko]

Two proposed variants...

 

[Wurger]

Both looks great but the first impressed me very much.
I like the form.Did you use the forum background colour or a sample of it?
