Here im going to show you how to manipulate a simple image into a perfect signature for your site:

I am going to start with this totally random image i found on google you can start with a mobile phone mac screen anything you want.

Now press Ctrl+t and transform the layer till it fits:

Now Ctrl and click on the thumbnail of your pasted screenshot, now on a new layer create too lines of gradients white to transparent top to bottom and bottom to top:

If you need to adjust the levels, brightness etc till you feel it fits the surrounding textures. Now im going to add my avatar into the image:

Now i can edit the design into a signature logo or even a avatar, hope this helps - Super.
