Yep, the top one is hard to read. But I like it better than the other.

The first one would be totally awsome if you just made the text darker or something so it's easier to read

The best way to make the text legible (in photoshop 7) is to give the layer a stroke in the blending options. Select a size and color that gives you the look you want. I would try the default red or maybe black for the new sig you posted.

The problem with that sig though is that the pattern he used for the text is so close to the background that it wouldn't matter if he added a stroke to it. Choose a different pattern or color scheme for it.

Check out the bottom of my sig for an example of using layer effects to draw out contrast among very similar background patterns. Granted, I used outer glow instead of stroke, but there are a lot of ways to subtly make the text readable while still keeping it similar to the bg.

I like the new one, but in the right half when I look at it sideways I see a scary looking clown...

How many beers have you had today?

Thanks for all the input guys
I have Photo-paint 8, so I'll try some things to make it easier to read.

If anyone wants me to make a cool sig for them, I'll try my best to do so.
