Text is downright bad, and render looks tacked on.

Basics of Sig Making.

Simple Grunge sig Tutorial

Another sig tutorial, using basic filter techniques


Basic Pixel Stretch Tutorial


Another basic sig tutorial.

Once you get them down, I suggest mixing crucial elements together, like the use of filters, techniques, and knowledge on settings and such. Feel free to experiment with the result. You don't need to follow them to the letter. Change the settings around until you find something you like.

Lol thats creative use of the leaf brush, your getting better, I also like the text some what, just set its blending option to overlay or lower the opacity just a tad like 65 or 70 and it will be ok.

Edit: 6.5/10 but since its your photoshop sig 7.5/10
I want to see more from you kid.

Cuda, there's only like one half-decent tutorial in that whole pack. The one he has as a current looks great, and beats all of those other sigs as well. Sig looks really nice, but I wouldn't recommend using the leaf brush. Maybe try making your own.

Edit: 6.5/10 (Above average, so feel good :D)

Massive improvement from your last one. This one is actually eye pleasing, well at least for me. Keep at it 7/10.

I picked those tutorials because they're simple, yet effective techniques to learn in each of them.

Honestly, I've gotten more used to this sig. I think I can maybe bump it up to a 7, but mostly because of the image you used. It was extremely well blended and works great with the entire sig. Really my only problem with the sig would be the leaf brush. Other than that I really like it.
