sigs??

[kris]

hi i'm new here and wanted to put up a sig and was wondering what kind of size restrictions there are for signatures.


edit: i went ahead and added my sig....if it's too big, let me know and i'll fix it.

[Webmaster]

I don't think there's a size restriction for the signature. In my opinion though, I think your signature is a little tiny bit too big. If it's smaller, it'd be easier to go through the posts. Nevertheless, it is beautiful. well done

[kris]

if it's alright with you i'll keep this one the way it is and for future sigs, i'll make them smaller....

Kris, how do you sigs in the first place? I have no clue how to do a sig or change my image instead of the standards one given.

i use photoshop7.0....it's a very good program, very expensive too. luckily for me i didn't go out and pay a grand for it. i got it free from my cousin who had the program. although, i heard that you can download the program from limewire, but it takes quite some time that's if you're lucky enough to get a good connection. you can also go to adobe.com and download the trial version....not sure if it's 15 or 30 days.

a program i used before i got photoshop was photoplus 6. i got the full version free....it's really a cheap imitation of photoshop. doesn't do much or give you much features, that's why they give it away. anyway, you can google that and the site should come up.

are you familiar with photobucket? that's how you post pics onto the forum.

if you have any other ?s feel free to ask here or pm me.

Ok so use and photobucket. Then generate a html code and put it sig box. I guess the same for the url. Just use the photobucket. Hmm.....yeah okay. Anyways, I will try it now.

Thanks Kris!!!

Konnichiwa,

Is there another way to upload pictures/signatures? When someone has a minute please let me know.

hi!

there are tons of servers where you can upload pictures for free...if you don't want to use photobucket you might want to try imageshack...i don't even use photobucket anymore, i like imageshack better. i don't have to sign up for an account so each time i go there i don't have to login which i like....imageshack won't ever give you that image saying bandwidth is used up for the month or something of the sort...photobucket does that, and then your pics don't show.

okay, so once you get your image uploaded you'll get a bunch of links.....for very large photos i'll normally choose the second link which is thumbnails for forums 1. this link will create a thumbnail of your image, that way your picture doesn't stretch the forum. for the smaller photos and signatures i'll use the last link direct link to image, except you have to add [/img][/b] before and after the link, otherwise your image won't show up....for avatars, just use the link alone without the s .......i'm not sure what all the other links are for cause i never use them.

hope i didn't confuse you there. if you have other questions feel free to ask.

ahh....i suppose you might need this imageshack

Arigato Kris,

I'll try out your suggestions. Thanks for taking the time to answer my question. I appreciate it very much.

^ no problem....i hope you get your pics to work.

Kris is such a wealth of information

BTW Miyamoto-san, why did you tell her to "be careful"?

[kris]

ahh kewpie-chan, is that what 'kiwotsukete' means? .....had no idea that's what it meant......i dunno either.

[miyamoto]

Sumimassen, pardon my ignorance. I'm quite embarassed, but that's the way you learn. Though according to my online Japanese-English dictionary "kiwotsukete" translates to "take care". Guess, I better buy a better dictionary!

yes it could mean that as well....guess it depends on how it's used in conversation

[misunderstood]

^ I'm not surprised because many languages have words that clearly have a meaning, but depends on what the sentence or situation it is. Instead, another word or phrase would become more appropriate.

"kiwotsukete" - I'll remember this one!
