then put a dark background behind the layer and it will always look like it's on one

well the point is to have it blend with whatever the user is viewing. with a dark background behind it, it just looks like a 500x200 rectangle

i don't like that in a sig. i like using transparency to make the images look good on the background.

It's nice, when it works... but you already said "on a dark background, it looks pretty good" assuming you mean "better than a bright background", so you should sacrifice sophistication for the better looking sig.

Regardless, alt is better.
