Patrick Hand Posted October 26, 2005 Posted October 26, 2005 Sorry to be a pain such a pain in the a**.... but I will be anyway.... Sigs be cool.... but when they take up half the screen, and you have nothing to say........ dang...........BAD SIG........... A sig should be happly subtle.... say who and what you are.... but not so blataint ..........not so HUGE............. Bad joke..... "If you have no dick, you'd drive a truck this big" I am not doing well, discribing my grips...... but I will try.... Why so many HUGE sigs? Takes to long to download and I'm using a DSL.... so what about those on just phone lines? A huge Sig takes up too much space.......... This is an artistic arguement...... say what you have to say in the most effecien way possiple........... I wanna make a sig..... but it will not be huge..... but as tastefull as a Pyrate can do.....
Cpt Sophia M Eisley Posted October 26, 2005 Posted October 26, 2005 I can understand the problem with larger signatures (with pics), and the time it takes many a folk to load threads when they're there. I've been on both sides of the fence, using dialup in the past, and currently having a cable modem. On the other hand... I do like the signatures you've made for a few folks, Skull Pirate Carter. In the interest of (possibly) aiming for a smaller picture (perhaps half to third the size), if you're free to do so, could you make one for me? I have two things in mind for it, and if you need a PM on the details, let me know. Perhaps we'll meet again under better circumstances. ---(---(@ Dead Men...Tell No Tales. Welcome, Foolish Mortals...
Nelson Cooke Posted October 26, 2005 Posted October 26, 2005 Pretty easy to make 'em animated with Flash (and probably a bunch of other softwares you can get pretty inexpensive (or for free if you pirate them)): I have one but can't find it; here's another example: From: Gus Openshaw's Whale-Killing Journal
Cpt Sophia M Eisley Posted October 26, 2005 Posted October 26, 2005 Yah know, I have Flash (I have a Macromedia sw package), but haven't had the time to learn it. Nice example of flash...I'd like to make something similar (but a little larger) for my blog. Perhaps we'll meet again under better circumstances. ---(---(@ Dead Men...Tell No Tales. Welcome, Foolish Mortals...
Phillip Black Posted October 26, 2005 Posted October 26, 2005 Patrick Hand, I certainly be catchin' yer drift! So, no needs to be gentle about it! This be me first sig and all, so it may take me some time to find exactly what be workin' for me! In the interest of readability and download speeds, I reduced the sig Skull pyrate Carter gave me by a mere 20% and it reduced the file size from 101kb to just 27kb. It also made it a little more subtle, whaddya think? Sea Captain: Yar, that be handsome pete, he dances on the pier for nickels! Sea Captain: Arrr... you gave him a quarter, he'll be dancin all day.
Phillip Black Posted October 26, 2005 Posted October 26, 2005 Arrgh! I don't be wantin' to be trouble to no one...I do appreciate the sig ye be makin' me Skull pyrate Carter..but until I can get it down to a size that's still readable and small...I'll just make do with this one I whipped up. I be thinkin' they be havin' a point seein' as i dont have a pic of meself in garb or such thing... Sea Captain: Yar, that be handsome pete, he dances on the pier for nickels! Sea Captain: Arrr... you gave him a quarter, he'll be dancin all day.
Nelson Cooke Posted October 27, 2005 Posted October 27, 2005 Flash takes a Saturday to learn, maybe part of Sunday depending how hung over you are. You can make the things any size, doesn't take no extra time. And the animation is easy. I found my old sig. You basically just tell Flash to move the brigs wherever you want:
 {if(f.fbq)return;n=f.fbq=function(){n.callMethod? n.callMethod.apply(n,arguments):n.queue.push(arguments)}; if(!f._fbq)f._fbq=n;n.push=n;n.loaded=!0;n.version='2.0'; n.queue=[];t=b.createElement(e);t.async=!0; t.src=v;s=b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0]; s.parentNode.insertBefore(t,s)}(window, document,'script', 'https://connect.facebook.net/en_US/fbevents.js'); fbq('init', '1074427760321280'); fbq('track', 'PageView'); </script> <noscript><img height=)
