I don't mind signatures that are a few words, or even a small pic like Cervantes'. But whatever. ----------------------------------- Cervantes Sat Jan 31, 2004 3:56 pm ----------------------------------- woot! *barely squeezes in past Acid's harsh standards* :P ----------------------------------- jonos Sat Jan 31, 2004 3:59 pm ----------------------------------- Signatures are cool cause you can make a statement without continuously repeating it in every post (or not necessarily a statement, anything). ----------------------------------- Acid Sat Jan 31, 2004 4:00 pm ----------------------------------- That's true too ----------------------------------- Amailer Sat Jan 31, 2004 4:00 pm ----------------------------------- DODGE YOUR SIG IS SO FIRGGEN HUGE. no foum allows so huge sig -.- ----------------------------------- Acid Sat Jan 31, 2004 4:05 pm ----------------------------------- Actually, I think I know Amailer through a forum that doesn't allow signatures. Does the name Loki ring a bell Amailer, or am I confused? ----------------------------------- Paul Sat Jan 31, 2004 4:05 pm ----------------------------------- I like my sig, though I wonder if anyone knows who that little man is. ----------------------------------- Cervantes Sat Jan 31, 2004 4:06 pm ----------------------------------- yeah it is huge and as many others have said "you're raping my scroll bar" :? who's the white pillow fluff blob thingy with pointy ears in that sig of yours by the way? ----------------------------------- Cervantes Sat Jan 31, 2004 4:09 pm ----------------------------------- Loki was a norse god :D who's Loki the son of again? *whoa way off topic sorry :think:* ----------------------------------- jonos Sat Jan 31, 2004 4:09 pm ----------------------------------- i think its someone kikoman has had the pleasure in saving or something. big sigs don't really matter if you have a pretty big screen though, so im sure not many people even notice how big some are. ----------------------------------- Amailer Sat Jan 31, 2004 4:10 pm ----------------------------------- Actually, I think I know Amailer through a forum that doesn't allow signatures.

P.S: Dodge it's 'Signature' it's not 'Signiture'... ----------------------------------- Mazer Sat Jan 31, 2004 9:26 pm ----------------------------------- P.S: Dodge it's 'Signature' it's not 'Signiture'... Cut him some slack, he's practicing for the Hacker Dan type-alike contest (BTW dodge, you have no chance, I've got my dictionary! And not the one on my website, I mean a whole freaking 53gig database on my pc :P ). Er, anyways here's my opinion on avatars and sigs: Avatar -no more than 100 pixels in width -height is up to you. (if it's height is longer than your post, that's not good) -animated? nothing stupid, long, or flashy (nobody wants a seizure from looking at your posts) Signature -no more than 150 pixels in height -nothing incredibly wide (no point in having to scroll over just because of your sig) -it should be something relevant. A quote, your name, something about a project your working on that you want people to know about, but there's no need for us to be looking at a picture of "buddy Jesus" from Dogma (sorry to make an example out of you, jonos, nothing personal really) Anyways, those are just my opinions. I think I may be forgetting something, but oh well. ----------------------------------- Paul Sat Jan 31, 2004 9:41 pm ----------------------------------- I know it is signature, I just see everyone else doing "signiture" and I didn't want to be left out :x ----------------------------------- naoki Sat Jan 31, 2004 11:01 pm ----------------------------------- hey props to mazer for fixing his horizontally-grotesque former avatar :lol: also i was gonna get a gif of Benimaru from KOF doing his ball super, but the bright flashes would prolly cause cataracts in the eye or something and is it just me, or did shorthair and dan switch place? dan seems to be having a streak of proper spelling, while shorthair is ............. becoming dan? ----------------------------------- jonos Sat Jan 31, 2004 11:07 pm ----------------------------------- ya I know, i can barely understand shorthair now like i can barely understand dan. i don't even notice big signatures, funny. ----------------------------------- Cervantes Sun Feb 01, 2004 11:19 am ----------------------------------- Mazer add "aobut" to you're dictionary!! :) shorthair will stop now that it has been publicly noted that he is transforming into dan. this was supposed to be a secret affair for him, but now its dragged into the open, he'll stop. oh yeah, he'll stop. :lol: ----------------------------------- jonos Sun Feb 01, 2004 11:21 am ----------------------------------- or we'll have to create a dictionary of shorthair ----------------------------------- shorthair Sun Feb 01, 2004 11:24 am ----------------------------------- Cervanes are you making me an offer i cant refuse :twisted: , i guess i better go int ohiding , REFSUE , to spell right hahahaaha ----------------------------------- Cervantes Sun Feb 01, 2004 11:26 am ----------------------------------- we'll find you... you can't hide forever :twisted:
