Step 3: Once you have gotten the things you need Open Photoshop
and Set the layout to 200x200 for Avatar and 340x40 for signature.
Im gonna be making a Avatar. Then Add a New layer and delete the Background
layer thats comes with it.

Step 4: Pick the Color you wanna use for the BG. Im using red because
the text i have is red. Once you have picked the Color use the paint
Bucket tool and Fill the entire layer.

Step 5: After you have gotten that. Select the rectangle tool on the
left side...
And Make the Rectangle Shape. And Make a new layer.

Step 6: once you got the new layer and the rectangle waiting go to your
colors and choose a slightly lighter color then the current color
And then Hit these buttons simultaneously. ALT+BACKSPACE And
it will fill the rectangle in.

Step 7: Then Right click on the rectangle and click Blending Options
