Hello, and welcome to Viva La Siggy (AoKH's Signature Improvemnt thread). This thread for asking others opinions of your sig, improvement, picking up tips, and telling people "to make the goddam thing smaller and whispered!!!11".
So anyway;
If someone has a signature that is in your opinion "ugly", don't flame. Just tell them which colours mixes give you a headache and which fades look like flouresent cat urine, and show them how to make it better.
Basic Hints:To fade, do this : [c=XXXXXX-XXXXXX] <text> [/c], with the XXXXXX's representing hex colour numbers. So, like in my sig, [c=000000-74ADF9] {¯ˆ·._.•-[b]Da Hobo[/b]-•._.·ˆ¯} [/c] = {¯·._.-Da Hobo-._.·¯}You can find hex numbers here.Have your name normal size, and whisper the rest of the signature. Or, whisper the entire thing. Normal-size sigs normally do not look quite as good as whispered.A signature should never be twice as large as the message.
Never "blink" colours i.e. : Da HoboTry to have a point to it all, like a link to your clan or design team, to your site, or a link to a useful thread. It's all right if there's no links, as long as it's not an eye sore.Do not just stick to the standard colours: red, blue, green, ect. Use the hex ones, as they can be almost any colour you can imagine.
To center your sig do this: [center]SIGNATURE[/center]. You'll get this:SIGNATUREYou can find good quotes here and you can find funny ones here. And of course, you can find George Dubya quotes here. Time for the big one:TO PREVIEW YOUR SIGNATURE CLICK "PREVIEW SIGNATURE". IT IS LOCATED NEXT TO THE "SUBMIT" BUTTON. THIS ELIMINATES THE NEED FOR "TEST." POSTS.
