Gentleman of Fortune Posted February 13, 2006 Posted February 13, 2006 I really admire some of the members signature "graphics" here at the pub. Somebody has put some serious time into them... so I thought I would have a little contest. I will take nominations this week for the top signature graphics, and then post a poll next week. The biggest vote getter will get a prize from my treasure chest. I am not sure what yet, but it could be anything from a T-shirt, a set of original buttons, a book, fabric for a costume etc..... On second thought, I will say that the dead line for "entries" is 20 February. That will give some folks that have been meaning to get a signature graphic together a chance (and maybe some motivation?. Good luck to all!

Fox Posted February 13, 2006 Posted February 13, 2006 I gotta stick a vote in for Hurricane's. I really admire many of the signature pictures, but when I saw Hurricane's the other day I thought "Wow!". It's so evocative as well as attractive. Huzzah.

Red-Handed Jill Posted February 13, 2006 Posted February 13, 2006 My vote is for Barbados Sam's. To use a colloquialism, it is Way Cool.
CaptainCiaran Posted February 14, 2006 Posted February 14, 2006 And if you mean rummy3, she took her Graphic down so I can't link it in.... Not sure that I understand, as I see her new graphic signature---WHICH IS SO FREAKIN' COOL---when I read her postings. My nomination is fer Rummy3. Rummy, post yer new signature graphic. Show everybody what ye got, I mean, show folks yer new design, luv!

Kendra The Sea Maid Posted February 14, 2006 Posted February 14, 2006 They are all so good, I nominate Captain Siren of the Poesidon. What do you need to make a signature? Mine was made by a friend, and will always use here, but would like to know how to make one "Courage is the decision to fly straight into the flame while knowing the consequences"~ The Adventures Of A Notorious Youth Capt.

I will check in from time to time. Until then: *raising goblet of good cheer* " To high adventure, and wild romance....long may they endure!"

Blackfoot Posted February 14, 2006 Posted February 14, 2006 Arrr, I be th' first one t' nominate Pirate Petee. I think his signature be cool. It looks like a lot of work be placed on that one. ]
oderlesseye Posted February 14, 2006 Posted February 14, 2006 Eye thinks Red Handed Jills is the most original and there could be a a second contest on that basis too. Though Pirate Petee be popular, I would have to go wit Hurricanes sig. http://www.myspace.com/oderlesseyehttp://www.facebook....esseye?ref=nameHangin at Execution dock awaits.

Gentleman of Fortune Posted February 14, 2006 Author Posted February 14, 2006 Well... if anyone else wants to pony up some prizes they are more then welcome to have have as many category winners as you want! Right now, I am just taking Nominations though, so try and refrain from canvassing support.... Just a "I nominate William Red Wakes" will do. I am having a devil of a time with Rummy3's No matter what browser I am using, It just says "user posted image" GoF Come aboard my pirate re-enacting site http://www.gentlemenoffortune.com/ Where you will find lots of information on building your authentic Pirate Impression!

Gentleman of Fortune Posted February 14, 2006 Author Posted February 14, 2006 I have put all the nominees so far in the second post to this thread... so if you see it there, you don't have to re-nominate. There are lots of good ones though, and I encourage anyone who is thinking about making one for themselves to go ahead and give it a shot!

Pirate Petee Posted February 14, 2006 Posted February 14, 2006 It just takes a couple of graphics programs. I can try an make ya one.
CaptainCiaran Posted February 14, 2006 Posted February 14, 2006 I am having a devil of a time with Rummy3's No matter what browser I am using, It just says "user posted image Hmm, not sure 'bout that. I can see it on her postings. In all fairness to Rummy3, who has not been on-board in a few days, if anyone knows how to copy her signature and repost if fer Mister Fortune to view, that would be kind of ye. (I've tried and don't know what the hell I'm doing.) I do again wish to nominate Rummy3's signature image. Gramercy.
