The forum rules state otherwise. Please read them before telling me I can't post since u are suppose to know these rules. Here is a bit from the "Read Me!"
Welcome to the training grounds!
Once a week I will post a stock image, render, tutorial, c4d, sprites, or any combination of those.
You will then have the chance to use whatever I posted that week to create a signature, banner, wallpaper, etc.. There is no size limit!!
Anyone in XG is welcome to participate.
If these have changed then update these rules otherwise I will post

It seems there was a miss communication issue here. Please post the stock render used when making this signature. Also what program are you using and I can better assist you with the transparency of the image.
I am starting to use photoshop Elements (first time use to use gimp about a year ago)
first off its in jpeg format. not good. it needs to be in png with no interlace!
Here is the updated one being transparent, I am using Photoshop elements (i think it was the last one produced).
Here is the render
okay now whats going on in the middle on the render?? you should clear up some of that ripple from the middle of it and keep it on the edges.

I've always liked the idea of doing 4th dimension signatures, but they're tricky to pull off. Personally, I'm not a fan of the shape you cut out for the background. it seems to serve no purpose, and would look cleaner if it was rectangular.
secondly, it doesn't appear much has been done to this signature. It looks like you added an trowel shaped background that's very close the website's background color, added an interestingly placed ripple effect, and then added a splatter brush.
Space themed designs can be very tricky, as outer space can be very bland and empty. the trick is filling the void so it doesn't look empty, all while keeping it "to real life". IGnzo did a great job with a banner he recently made.

When it comes to the background, I was going for more of a plain look, but I agree with you on the tilt/ rotation. I used what I could find to make it seem off set, but I know I used the wrong one (First sig from photoshop). Once I learn the tools in photoshop it will get easier.
Do u have a link to IGnzo's background I would like to check it out. Thanks
