Ok , yea I know this is the wrong place for this post, but hey, this is the only forum I read. Just want to know , what do you use to create those cool signatures at the bottom of your posts, and how do you get them onto the message board.

Well...there are a few ways to go about doing this...


You could learn HTML and create it from scratch...


Or


Open a reply window, and type up what information you want in your signature.


Use the graphical editing tools at the top (Font Name, Font Size, Color, and Text Alignment) to get everything just like you want it.


Then, click the "Edit As HTML" button at the bottom of the Reply box.


Highlight all of the HTML in that window, then copy (CTRL-C) the information.


Now, click the "My Profile" link at the top of the page. Paste (CTRL-V) your copied HTML signature into the forum signature box and click "Save Changes"...


You now have your very own custom sig...

I've wanted to know how to do that for so long myself. Thanks for the insight. Drev, may your hyperspace jumps be smooth, your hidden compartments always full, and your cantina tab always paid for you

Thanks for the info. I feel like my age now for not knowing that. By the way my age is old enough to remember seeing episode 4 at the drive-in.

FYI -


You're not limited to the 6 or 7 fonts that the Reply box gives you to use. You can use any font in your Fonts folder (located in C:\Windows\Fonts).


Just substitute the font name in the "face=xxxxxxx" part of the HTML. For font names with more than one word, you'll have to put them in quotation marks.

Looks good...but you should have hit the "Edit As HTML" button instead of "Submit Post".


You don't actually submit when you're building your sig....you're just using their interface. Copy the HTML into the Signature box in your forum Profile. After you save the changes, every post you've ever made will reflect your new sig...
