Let's Begin:
 
1) Open up a New Canvas 100X100. You may have to go a little bit bigger for your name, but we do not want it to big so it can barley be seen.
 
2) Now click on your Text Tool. Use these settings: Create as: Floating Size: 10 or bigger. Whatever you decide really. Stroke width: 1.0 Atlas checked. Now go over to your Color Pallet and use this color: #C0C0C0 as the background fill. The Foreground fill is null.
 
3) Type in the text that your wanting to use, for example mine is Eyes. Now you need to choose a Font that is a readable. So mess with it some. I use Times New Roman. It is easy to read. Then select okay.
 
4) Now go to Effects: 3-D Effects: Inner Bevel. Use these settings: Preset: Pillow :Width :Smoothness 8 emoticonepth 40 :Ambiance 2 :Shininess 40 :Color #FFFFFF :Angle 315 :Intensity 36 : Elevation 20. Now select ok. It should be a light grey now.
 
5) Now we need to make it lighter so go over to your Layer pallet and move the slider arrow to 50.
 
6) Okay last step is to add a small drop shadow to this so go to Effects: 3-D Effects; Drop Shadow and use these settings: Vertical 1 :Horizontal 1 :Opacity 10 : Blur 2.0 :Color Black
 
7) Now crop the excess canvas from your watermark that you just made and save it as a psp tube so the next time you need it you will have it. You may have to resize the watermark with each sig you do cause they are all different sizes and it really depends on how visible you want it to be. This is just a basic watermark. You can experiment with the effects and get different marks. Mine look like metal...Have fun and don't forget to mark your sigs that you create.
