Yay

[Edit] Nothing new in the mail. Check it again. Are you talking about the red signature?

Being in debt and celebrating a lower deficit is like being on a diet and celebrating the fact you gained two pounds this week instead of five.

Just to let him know, MindFad, I love your retro nintendo sigs. They're all cool. Quite frankly I don't know why anyone would have anything else. Then again, I'm using a funky charectature of my own face as a sig, so what does that say bout me.

The green is... interesting. Red type on a black background is supposed to be on the more difficult to read. But if you're keeping that background, use yellow for the text. Bright canary yellow.

I didn't even know we were allowed bigger ones, I've been mondo busy this week...
I wish we could get more height, like even 100 pixels!

That said I run a forum where the guidlines are max 200 high and max 400 wide. I still have people who break those rules.

I'd like 200x75, or 200x85. Then I could get the picture of Lady Justice's sword in there, too. I could also add some subtitle-like text. 200x65 would be a good compromise.

Adjusted enough for a new sig size.
Will it ever happen?
I've seen a forum where 500x300 and several lines were available. You could do almost anything�

I completely agree. I'm color blind and even I can see how bad they are.

I'd rather they leave it there so image or texts in signature won't look like they're part of each posts

Maybe use 200x1 black gif instead of using line texts

Okay, since you're such a critic, go find a Hyrule-ish font. OR would you rather him use Papyrus?

[Note: Papyrus is the most over-used novelty font I've ever seen.]

7 outa 10. Looks kinda flat, and all the retro stuff seems to belong to MindFad. So I guess Pheonixboy didn't get the memo.

Mindfad's style was in my mind too. Oh well... I made the "Link" letters from scratch.

Yeah, it is kinda annoying. He's the biggest Nintendo fanboy on the forum so he thinks he's the only one who can make NES stuff. It's kinda like that part in Not Another Teen Movie where the first token black guy sees another token black guy at the party, and the 1st one says "I'm supposed to be the only token black guy at this party."

I'd rather keep my sig though.

Sig limits are too big n' clunky IMO, but thankfully no one says you have to use all of it.
