I personally recommend using this site for rounding corners. it's not as good at rounding gifs as it is images so you're left with jagged/pixelated corners. if you're looking to round specific corners [such as what i've done here] then it's a different process. I could explain how to do it, but it's a bit more complicated than just initially round all four corners [there might be a site for rounding one or two corners, but as far as iv'e seen there isn't].

you can use this site for adding shadows. I have my own method for adding shadows but this site easily lets you add one. the problem with this site is that it only allows you to add it to the right and once you save the final product it's saved as a jpg so it's not transparent

      ok, so I just finished making a signature for my dear friend Grace.

      I really like how it turned out.
      What I would like to know is if i'm good enough to open a signature shop.

Try it out and see what happens! Start out with lower prices just to make sure you can bring in those first few customers and then see if you can adjust the price after that.

- Go to pixlr
- Upload your image and make sure you've got a transparent background layer behind it
- ctrl + a to select the whole image, then ctrl + c to copy it
- Paste that image onto a new layer and edit the color and transparency of it to make it look like a shadow

Go to the Image Manipulation section and look at the websites where their description includes "round corners".

If a gif is a video, how come it works in a signature? I thought only images worked.

A gif is not a video. A gif is an animated image. It works by taking a bunch of images and displaying them one after another to make it look like image's objects are moving.
