If you look at the bottom of the posts in many blogs you will see they finish with a signature.I think the signature looks great and adds a bit of style to the posts.These signatures are very easy to create and add to your blog and in this post i will show you how.You can actually use a small pad to write you signature or pick from one of hundreds of pre-made signatures.I suggest using the pre-made signature, using the pad to create your actual signature is almost imposable.
