How to make a signature

**DoctorRyanB1** · 01-13-2009, 09:01 AM

I tried finding info on how to do this on the site but couldn't find anything so I thought I would just ask the experts. How do you guys set up the animation signatures at the bottom of your posts. I feel so left out.

**oasis** · 01-13-2009, 11:02 AM

its a several step process acctually

it all depends on what you want
if you want a super cool picture in your sig that no one has you will have to make it yourself

you can use programs such as
cam studio to record what you want
and
gif movie gear to make the gif

just google search them
cam studio is free and I recomend getting it anyways because you never know when you need to record something on your computer
gif movie gear cost 30 dollars but you can try it free

if you want the simple way
just do a google search for
animated gifs

and once you find the one you like

you right click your mouse on the gif go to properties and copy the URL location

then go to retro's site and into your profile where you can edit your sig and type the folowing

[.img]URL LOCATION GOES HERE[/img]
^ dont type that period
and the url location should look something like this
http://i113.photobucket.com/albums/n...love/oasis.gif

and when you put it in the img brackets you get your picture
and it will look like this

just dont pick some large annoying gif because some can be large and annoying ;D

Thanks for your help as soon as I get the free time I'll get started.[br]Posted on: January 13, 2009, 02:13:30 PM_________________________________________________O k I got signature set up but how do I move the positions of the animations? Like what if I wanted it in the center of the post box instead of all the way to the left?

Type [.center]image address/wording[/center]

Without the period, should center it for you

speaking of signatures, does anyone know of someone here who makes them, besides PowerfulLove since he doesn't seem to come here anymore?

**sezthemank** · 07-14-2009, 11:21 PM

**Timber Wolf** · 07-14-2009, 11:27 PM

**sezthemank** · 07-14-2009, 11:29 PM

**Timber Wolf** · 07-14-2009, 11:31 PM

I wonder what possessed the baby to do that, I mean that's one of the funniest faces I've seen

**DrunkN** · 07-14-2009, 11:35 PM

I'm considering replacing my sig gif with this one

**sezthemank** · 07-15-2009, 09:16 PM

That's one of the greatest things I have seen in awhile. I need to get out more I guess. Still great though! +1

**zarny** · 07-18-2009, 02:03 PM

Whenever I try and make my signature it always say "Invalid URL"

What did I do wrong?

**Dudebro** · 07-19-2009, 06:40 AM

Explain what you're trying to do so we can understand the problem. Are you uploading an image/video or are you hosting it on another site? If you're hosting it somewhere are you sure you've copied the link correctly? Is it the right size? ect.

**Kong** · 07-19-2009, 11:12 AM

Post here what you are trying to put in your sig.

**Timber Wolf** · 07-23-2009, 10:35 PM

I don't know about that zarny guy, but I was looking for someone else besides PFL who made sigs, since he hasn't been around te forums for a long time, though he seems to have made a return

**powerfullove** · 07-23-2009, 10:58 PM

Yes, I have. XD. I'm still around if you want to reconsider my services.

**Timber Wolf** · 07-23-2009, 11:02 PM

Well, I've always concidered your services, but everyone goes to you, so I thought I'd be nice by not adding to the list

, but if your not busy....

**powerfullove** · 07-23-2009, 11:10 PM

I'm not. I was doing some graphics for Nintendo Daily, but I'm on a "break."

**sezthemank** · 07-25-2009, 07:54 AM

Im thinking off changing my baby to somthing else!

Fireinside had the "Dudebro is my hero" but now he has got rid of it!
It was his idea to start a trend!

Ah well I dont care, being a Dudeist and all.

I belive i'm hosting it from another sit,
I don't what i'm suppose to copy for the link, and
I don't what size to put.

Sorry for sounding a bit stupid.
