Disabling Signatures Per-user

[*julez* 124]

I think that is just using images though - I'd kinda want something like.,.. I don't know if this will work..

K1 timeline blah blah...................................AOS timeline blah blah

Date..........................................................Date

You get the idea... at least if this works...

Which it didn't... ok so where the ..... are replaced by spaces/tabs

Well, it looks like liz legend created something like what you want and saved it as a jpeg and uploaded it to photobucket or something...that wont work for you?

Yeah - but that's what I said - I couldn't get the exact html colour code for the background and it annoys me having a white rectangle background!!! I'm weird like that...

Also - updating img files is not so simple as updating text...

my goodness, Jeraly dear; do you derail every thread you post in?

Jeraly, just pm me with what you would like and I will create it for you.

The bottom line is you're never going to please everyone!

Personally I have signatures turned off, but I have seen limits re. dimensions and file size implemented on many other forums to great success. I did quite enjoy reading people's timelines or looking at the odd photo (especially of cats! ) but the signatures that were really large or full of many pictures were just too many to ignore.

I still have a signature as I said when I first joined the boards that I'd help Jeraly recruit people for the Facebook groups and then another forumer asked that I include a link to Igor's list as he always knew where to find me.

All signatures should be banned, including the timeline ones, except ones of kitties and they should be compulsory for all, even if they have no cats of their own. If that is the case then cat ownership should be put in the TOS! Not having a cat is against the TOS!

*chants * we need more cats, we need more cats, we need more cats!

I agree... although my ticker has a kitty on it so I can have both

Kim/Russ - is there even a way to create those spaces without using a table then adding the bbcode for an image file? I can look up the html code for a tab if that would work, even if it does look like a swear word blanked out with %^$ etc Or failing that then the html colour code for the board background so it matches in my siggie although I still say that updating image files is more of a PITA than just updating the bbcode...

I'm sorry about any offense I have caused to the cat mafia. But it's very hard to look like I'm working when there's a bit picture of a cat or a kissing couple on my screen.

Now if it was a picture of a dog.....

Everything looks good from here. Yes. Yes, this is a fertile land, and we will thrive. We will rule over all this land, and we will call it..."This Land."

No. You have to save the table as a jpg image so you can't just place one over the other. HTML does not work on these boards. BB does have code for tables to be used in forums but it's not available here. Somehow I think that would make the problems discussed in this thread much, MUCH, worse!

Instead of photoshop, you could use word to create your tables. That may make it easier for you to edit. Getting the hex for the forum colors is easy enough. Let me know if I can help you.

I suppose the difficulty in getting the background colour right for signatures comes from alternating posts having a very subtly different shade of colour.

[KimandRuss 0]

Didn't even notice that, Rachel! Yeah, that would make it more difficult!

I suppose if he really needed it to match the boards he could use the deeper blue border. Men!
