The way to create the border:
Start a new canvas up, with the same size as your sig, and make sure you got the default colorscheme selected (Ctrl+D).
Next, go to Filters > Render > Clouds.
After that, Filters > Artistic > Palette Knife, and run it with the default settings.
Next, its Filters > Artistic > Poster Edges, that should also be run on default settings.
Now go Filters > Distort > Glass, this one is also used on default settings.
To get the correct looks, you have to go to Edit > Fade Glass, and change the Blending mode into Overlay.
Save this as a .psd, and start another new one up.
This time, only create a black border of about 5 or 6 pixels width.
Almost done now. Go to Filters > Distort > Displace, and when asked, select the file you just saved.
There we go, you have just created your new and unique, grunged up border. biggrin:
The result should be something like this:
