It's just really, really bland. Try throwing in some nice effects and brushes to make it more appealing to the eye.

What program do you use?

Well, it's just plain, to be honest. I reccomend maybe choosing colors of the stock rather random colors or do some coloring on the stock and choosing some nice colors that match, though I can see you're a beginner. Also, remove the text. Unless the text is appealing, whether it be simple or fancy, take it out. Not everything needs text.
But yeah, what program do you use?

text sucks, get rid of it.

effects suck. and the stock doesn't blend well with the background, at all.
the stock itself looks as though it was stretched horizontally, fix that as well.

crop this, its way to big vertically.

Umm i use Paint.NET.photoshop is too expensive.
Now that i look at it,it could use some effects.I rendered some clouds and used that along with a random Splatter effect.i thought it came out nice.
Hey what color should i have used for the background?
EDIT:I can't seem to find any good brushes for Paint.NET...

Get GIMP. It's free and easier to navigate than Photoshop.

Ah, well, everyone's different.

I, personally would advise Photoshop, if you can find a good rip, that is virus free (Ask Zook, he knows.)

GIMP is possibly the biggest pain in the ass to use. I spent a month trying to figure all that shit out. Thank God for Photoshop, even though my work still sucks atm

It's funny seeing all these different reactions, because everyone that I've seen begin with Photoshop says Gimp is harder to use, and vice versa :v

Anyway, crop the darn thing down a lot, chuck out the text, or get a better font and blend it in more, and have some type of light source in the sig too
