Haha, those are cute. You should try getting a nice painting program so you can edit things and make them look more realistic. Good job =3

The first picture looks like you editted it from it's real original picture, in place you made changes on your own..

Yeah, I don't really like it too much... The first one just looks like a badly edited title screen, and the second one..eh, it's a bit better. Maybe you could try using the text tool instead of trying to draw the letters with your mouse?

Eh, seems like you did some simple pencil tool editing. I'd be sort of reluctant to call this 'Yoshi art', seeing as you didn't draw the Yoshi in the only picture with a Yoshi in it. ... I'm sort of reluctant to call this art because it looks mostly like some (hard to read scribbles) in a picture you didn't draw.
Tips and stuff: keep practicing! ^_^ I wouldn't quite start showing your art for a while unless it's an actual drawing that you want crits on. You can't really critique what you have here. But using the text tool instead of your own handwriting (at this stage, anyway) will make writing look cleaner.
I also recommend a higher paint program. MSPaint is pretty bad for a beginner. People excellent with pixel art and cell shading can be gods in it; but most people just starting out (and even myself, in most areas) can't be. I'd say to look for oC version one. That's free. There are also other programs- which can be confusing at first, unfortuantely- out there such as Pixia. Oekakies are another option, but I don't recommend using them- unless you don't save- as most oekakies will not allow beginners or those with low skill level to send stuff.

Everyone else has said what I was thinking, so I won't bother to retype that. Anyway, if you can't afford a more advanced image program (or just plain don't want to get one), here's a helpful tutorial for MSPaint that I used to use before I got Photoshop: www.domeofstars.com/pokemon/tutorial/tutorial.htmIt may take quite a long time to make something good, but most artists will spend at least 30 minutes on a picture (my latest pictures have been keeping me working for hours).

Welp, my words have already been spoken... try doing something from scratch.
For drawing, I suggest using Pixia. It has NO trial, and it's a good program, plus it's free. I still have to figure out all its functions, but you should be able to make something of your own with it.
I forgot who suggested pixia to me... it was someone on this board...

Does anyone know a program where you can make you own Sig bars like the one in my Sig and making your own animated pictures? Like the Yoshi in my Sig?

you can use Photoshop or Paint shop pro to make userbars with, also with MS paint, but that's kinda hard to do..

you must purchase photo shop, downloading it is illegal. it is also very expensive (at least the places that sell it around me it is.)
you can make animated sigs too by using a gif animator. as you have probably guessed, nothing is free in life, so tough getting one that will last you. downloading free trials are free for a certain amount of days though.

Unless it's freeware. You can pretty much make a sig bar on any art program, but for some programs, it's harder then others. I use Jasc Animation Shop 3 for my animations. It's really easy to use and I love it. You can get a 30 day free trial at corel.com (Jasc was bought out by Corel, but I'm not too hapy with their customer service).

At school we had corel, but I think they changed it.
