It's good I might make one myself! bit too 'shiny' for my liking though

Looks very nice!

The halo render looks slightly squished.

It's a great first try, i've seen a lot worse but you've made a few basic errors. You don't have a border, I know I know, it seems silly but even a 1px white stroke on overlay would improve the sig. Shadows on text tends to be a no go as well, again, a stroke or just left as-is with some filter effects is fine.
You've done a decent job at 'blending da rendah' but as has been said it looks squished so make sure when you're resizing that the proportions are locked or if it was the original render that was squashed, find a new one.
Finally there's a great deal of contrast in the background which in this sig doesn't look too bad but as a personal preference I'd suggest to stick to either dark or light rather than a mix of both, it can look messy when not applied right, however the exposure on the render compliments this somewhat so it's not as bad as I may have made out.

Hope I've helped :)

Thanks both to Killjoy and Anubis, how exactly do i lock proportions? Also, do any of you know a good place to get brushes and fonts? :S thanks.

The only thing that really bothers me is the font :P

Not sure how lock proportion is done either but when I hit Ctrl+T to transform, I hold the Shift button down as I adjust the image.

Your lack of regard for grammar is proportional to my lack of respect for you.

I like it. The dark green part is somewhat hard to read though.
