    Depends on if I care if anyone can read it. Most of the time, my signature is just a scribble. My hand has gotten as lazy as the rest of me over the years.

    Usually it's just the first letters of my first and last name that is legible...the rest....sort of like a Richter scale read out.

    You'd need an Egyptologist to decipher mine.

    Mine looks like a chicken has stepped in a bottle of ink and walked across the page.

    I was signing the slip after using my credit card once and the person in the store stood looking at the signature for about 5 minutes and said "well there is no fear of anyone ever forging that signature"

    My signature is very legible. Handwriting has suffered from all that note taking back in college, so if its a short note-I'm good, long note, not so good.

    My maiden name was a rather simple name and that signature was always legible. My married name as a Z in it and I get rather happy when writting that z and it makes for a rather sloppy signature.

    My signature is neat. I don't know how people can write their names to be unlegible. I always wonder if they have to practice to write like that.

    You can read my Julie quite well but the rest is slop. I always got in trouble in school for the way I made my Js though.

    My maiden last name was (is) soo long, 11 letters, too long to write so I just scribbled it, with my married last name its nice and neat, its way shorter.

    My signature is neat. I don't know how people can write their names to be unlegible. I always wonder if they have to practice to write like that.

    Signatures and Handwriting are two different things.

    I absolutely practiced my signature to make it look awesome, and it's sloppy with just enough legible letters to correspond to my name. My handwriting is pretty neat, but still has character. It has a tall x height and short ascenders and descenders, generally. Sometimes when I have to write small, it's the opposite and has a short x height and long ascenders and descenders. They're both pretty regular and geometric.
