Sandzibar, let me guess you used Magic ASCII Picture for that sig, right?

yep. had to recode it in xhtml though so that the colors and sizing works in browsers other than IE6.. cos with IE5 5.5 it would show up like this otherwise:



OXOYOXOYOXOYOXOYOXOYOXOYOXOYOXOY

OXOYOXOYOXOYOXOYOXOYOXOYOXOYOXOY



the way SWG forums handle html imbedded in sigs is odd...

I noticed from the XOYO


While mine is handmade *shoots himself* I found Magic 2 days ago and tried to convert my JPG sig. No matter how small I made it and how much I optimized it in a paintbox, I always exceeded the 20k char limit. I guess I'll stick to my present sig

hheeh im close on my limit.. its a pain that the font size set in the initial <font> tag is reset by the next instance of a <font> tag. same with the color.. means for each XO or YO i had to define the color and size.. took bloody ages to work this out...


yours looks nice though mate. impressive that its hand made.. i doubt i could have done that for my ST scout image..

It looks harder than it is. Actually it has very limited colors. The changing intensity comes from using 0 and 1 in random order
I made it using Word. First I made the whole block and then I put the colors in. The rest was just some copy/paste work.


For the JPG I'm already down to 150x25 with 32 colors and it's still to big. The first try (original size about 575x110 or so) was way above the 20k limit with a file size of more than 1mb lol..

That's a scout trooper? Heh, when I first saw it, I was wondering where the crossbones were.
