Pinoy - Overlaying text isn't always the best option. It looks good on a lot of things but not always. This is a great sig that has lots of potential - I think you should make it your goal to TOTALLY change your text style. You always use big text, with either a gradient or overlay. Forget that - you can add a gradient, but it can't be your main effect. I can't really point you to a specific style - but just go through some tutorials and find a new style for text. Text is the only thing holding you back.
