use the "Marquee Tool" to select what size of your border and then.... This is tricky color it in.

Thats the fastest border I can think of

Very good for your first sig <:


For borders..
I have two methods.

I'll either use the line tool (I set it at 1 px and whatever colour i choose) then just.. manually add it.
Just gotta make sure it's even.

Other way is to copy the sig and open a new file, set the size two pixels bigger on both height and width. Then paste the sig on a new layer, and on the layer beneath I'll just use the fill bucket tool thing.

<:

hope thats.
Understandable?

That
also works <:


If you find that when you save, you lose the quality of your sig, reopen it in paint and redo the border, then save as .png

I find when I save stuff through ms paint as .jpeg, it gets all pixel-y

Another way to do it in Photoshop is to create a new layer (ctrl+shift+N), select all (ctrl+A), then go to Edit > Stroke. Choose any settings you like and press ok. Job done.

I see a few things that I would definitely change -- however, since these are your first signatures, I wont critique or hold you to Knibbler's standards. Lol. ;)

Your work's getting there -- but remember, using a brush to make some cool swirls, isn't exactly the art aspect you want people to see you for. Find something that you dig a lot, and make it your "signature move."

Most of these I can look at and discern how they came to be. The object is to mask that thought, with various tools and fun, to hide what you're doing in the image and make everything pop -- instead of just some things.

Should you need any advice, tips, or you have questions -- PM me anytime and I'll gladly shoot you an answer.
