Only thing I could suggest is maybe add a preview picture of the final product or no one may use it for fear of it waisting their time.

do you have a preview?

I was looking through some signature tutorials and I came across this one, and decided to make one. Since there was no preview I figured it would be a good idea to post it.

Not exactly my favorite ever, but it looks fairly good, I guess having more skill than me in Photoshop affects the results as well.
