RedShell Posted August 18, 2006 Posted August 18, 2006 I’ve noticed that these threads seem to appear from time to time, so we could probably do with a dedicated thread, and here it is! Please make sure you are specific when making requests, don't just say "I want a new sig" Try to provide as much information as possible i.e.: Overall concept for the sig / avatar Links to any artwork / fonts you want used Any text that is to be included Required size of sig *Note maximum size is 500 x 150. For avatars it's 125 x 125. The combined file size cannot exceed 50kb, for more info on this please go here. The more information you provide, the better your sig / avatar will probably turn out. Anyone is welcome to create sigs based on people’s requests, just keep the rules in mind when doing so. Cheers. : peace: Update by Shorty 13 Apr 2007 As someone who's fulfilled requests in the past, I would appreciate it if people take into consideration the things in this first post. If possible, be as specific as possible. Here is an example of a perfect request: Sig Text: Shorty Theme: Eureka Seven (anime) details: Wiki Extra Text: Eureka 7 Size: 370x125px Shape: Regular rectangle Colour scheme: White/Blue Fonts: Futura Hv (Bold/Heavy), Georgia, /or artists choice Images to use: 1 2 3 Style: Clean, minimalistic You don't have to fill out all of these, obviously - but I cannot stress enough that the more details you give, the faster you're likely to get something you want, and the more appropriate it will be. Anyone can search google for good images, you can at least start there. Remember that not everyone here will like "Bleach" or "Gears of War" so they might not know what a good picture will be, so provide links. Thanks 60%[/hr]How to put a sig in place There are two methods to putting a sig in, the first is to go to User CP > Edit Signature and scroll down to upload a sig. However this limits your signature options. The easiest and infinitely more popular method is to host the image elsewhere (if someone has made you a sig, they've probably hosted it somewhere - but ask if it's ok to leave it there, in case it's temporary). If you need to host it yourself, somewhere like http://www.imageshack.us will be fine. Either way you need the URL of the image. To find that, right click on the image once it's uploaded and find the option like "Copy Image Location". If you're using IE you might need to click on "Properties" then highlight and copy the "Address (URL)". Now go to the space for editing your signature mentioned above. You need to use special BBcode on forums (your html won't help you here) - the tags are as follows: [img ]http://www.urlofimage.com/image.jpg[/img] However you need to remove the spaces in the first "img" tag. Remember to include the forward slash in the closing tag. If you want to centre your signature, you use "center" (spelt the American way) tags either side of your signature code: [center ] [img ]http://www.urlofimage.com/image.jpg[/img] [/center] (again without spaces, of course)
triforce_keeper Posted August 23, 2006 Posted August 23, 2006 Hey I want a Zelda themed sig with name and stuff on. I cannot remember who did my current sig but thanks to that person! So I definatly want the triforce on it, Zelda scenery/characters possibly. And triforce_keeper Thanks too everyone who helps me
mcj metroid Posted August 23, 2006 Posted August 23, 2006 do u still want a sig made?ill try if u want
Tellyn Posted August 23, 2006 Posted August 23, 2006 Hmm, can I request a Zelda sig and AV please (just been reminded by Triforce Keeper's thread :p)? For the AV, can I have the Majora's Mask with the background cut out, like my current one is. And for the sig, some blended Twilight Princess images like Dante's (I think) with the words "The Legend Returns" in gold letters on the bottom right corner. Too picky? Sorry.
