How to Create a Digital Signature

I found this little tip in my Wacom Tablet newsletter (http://wacom.com/index2.cfm). But I discover you can create a digital signature the same way even if you don't have a tablet, you just have to be skilled with the mouse and pen tool in photoshop. I happen to have a Wacom Tablet, so if you really want to do this it using the table, give me a call and you can use mine!!

“It’s really easy to create your signature with a pen tablet. Best of all, you can save it in Photoshop so you don’t have to keep redoing it. In Photoshop, just select the Brush Tool and choose a small hard-edged (the kind without the faded edges) brush from the Brush Picker in the top Options Bar. Then write your signature with the Wacom pen on a white layer just as you normally would. Once you have it the way you like, select the Rectangular Marquee Tool from the toolbox and drag a selection around the entire signature. Go to the Edit menu and go down to Define Brush Preset. Give your brush a descriptive name, press OK and you’re ready to go. That’s it! Now your signature is saved as a custom brush in the Brushes palette ready to use whenever you want.”
