    [size="xx-small"][face="arial,helvetica,sans-serif"]Haha That's what happened to me. Then I found them and I couldn't edit my original post! *twitch*[/face][/size]
  3. ARCHIVED-Grrrrrrrrltwo Guest

    I need a new siggy! :D I betrayed and changed guilds and stuffs!!! can you help a lizard out? ill send ya pics! :D
  4. ARCHIVED-FadetoGrey Guest

    Ewww... smelly leezards!
  5. ARCHIVED-shirka Guest

    haaaai Saaa! Duh, you betrayed? No more the georgeous, evil, healer? A goodie lizard templar, hehe. That's a contradiction in terms, if I ever heard one, LOL! BTW, I could update your sig or did you want a completely new one?
    Did you know, my warlock lizard is lvl 70 now and I never took screenshots of her? Yes, I know.. /shame on me!
  6. ARCHIVED-Vy Guest

    I love the colors you use in your signatures!
    I know animated signatures are very time consuming, so I have been having trouble even figuring out what I want.
    I tried to understand the post about how to make the signature cycle between others, do you have a link to a better explanation of that?
    Essentially I wanted to get a Duo person sig for my 2 fae warlocks, and although I duo a few others, I don't know if the duo is permanent.
    IE my main is froglock Monk, who usually I two-box with my fae Mystic. I also have a swashie and fury whom i play too.
    I also wanted to get a my guild in it to, but have no idea how.
    This - http://www.djbbc2.com/images/banner...parentedge6.GIF - is the guild banner I made for my website, although it took me a lot of time to do. I have created most everything on my site, most through guildportal - http://www.djbbc2.com - and have done some of the images myself.
    My goal is to have a way to display multiple characters at once, since I get tired of only seeing 1 at a time, hence my current sig.

    Please can you give me input, how should I even format a request?
  7. ARCHIVED-shirka Guest

    Hello Vy!
    I think all chars together in one sig would be a bit crowded, don't you think?
    Maybe we should start with the duo monk-mystic. They have proven their worth to you . This way we will end up with three sigs. If I can't make it work to animate them (let them fade over in endless cycle) then I'm sure we can find another sigmaker who can do that part. I haven't done many animated sigs.
    Take screenshots of the two chars we should start with. Take ss in broad daylight and with settings as high as possible. And tell me what you want for them. (colors, mood of sig, names, text etc..etc) I'm willing to take a try at this project of yours :)
  8. ARCHIVED-Vy Guest

    Thank you very much!
    Monk/Mystic, and Swashie/Fury, and Two Warlocks in a 3 image cycle would be awesome.
    I will get some screenshots and details when I get home this evening :)
    Thanks!!


    Edit: Since I have time before I get off work I'm gonna start jotting down some of the info you will need via Edit in this post. I'll also use this same one to put the links to the screenshots once I've loaded them to my site.
    What graphic did you want? 500x150
    Text you would like in your char:
    Guild = Clan Blackwatch
    Name= Erve Flux the Monk, Vyze Flux the Mystic; (Monk green, Mystic white? mood=survival?)
    Vyperz Swashbuckler, Icyfrost Fury; (Fury white, Swashie purple, mood stealth & healing?)
    Toxicflame Bio'Shock Warlock, Toxicfrost Bio'Shock Warlock. (Flame colors of fire red, frost or ice blue, and poison green/dark?)
    Server = Oasis
    Quote = General "Seize the Day", Monk "Flop & Drop", Mystic "Hey, you dead?"
    Colors you absolutely do NOT want in your sig? I usually shy away from yellow/orange and pastels. I do really like bolder colors, but with 3 sigs I leave it up to you for the most part. Anything goes. P.S. for one, maybe a lot of purple?
    Describe your char: Happy & Funny.
    Describe look: Futuristic? Spacey? Changes for each, anything goes.
    Take screenshots and post your links to them. (Inc Soon)(Working on bright daylight screenshots. Ugh I play with high gamma and my screen looks bright and vivid, but the ss I take are still dim. wow)

    updated Airreilyn's sig, as requested. Took the freedom to change the dimensions too Airr :)
  11. ARCHIVED-shirka Guest

    Saa's new sig is done. I had some trouble over you new status! :) I mean.. a templar, follower of Innoruuk? You have to heal, bring life, be compassionate and your deity demands hate! There for I played around with some brushes until I got a kind of healers green (inspired by the beautiful shine on your plate armor) and then proceeded to put some sickly black splotches over it. Your patients have to feel maybe alive, healed by Saaa, THE most georgous healer of Norrath, but they should wish they weren't!
    [IMG]
    Hope you like it, Saaa!
    edit: having trouble with editting. (got wrong link for this sig. I really miss the "preview"button!)
  12. ARCHIVED-Grrrrrrrrltwo Guest

    Oooooo I love it!!!!

    Grrr you might want to redownload the great sig Ronja made for you in anything but JPEG format (this format distorts the colors and resolution)

    This is the sig that was made for you:

    This is what the sig you are displaying looks like:

    See the difference?


    Try saving and hosting it as a PNG, TIF, or TGA if you can. If you don't know how to do that, just use the link I posted the good version at by right clicking, copy link location, and paste that link into your profile.
  14. ARCHIVED-Seagoat Guest

    ...Or you could FTP it instead of using a file upload form. Looks like maybe you used a file host that resamples pics to "optimize" them during upload, before they're stored on the remote server.
    For example, the original sig was 124.1 KB; the one you're using right now is only 20.7 KB -- that's less than 17% of the original file size. :-? Saving space can be a good thing, but you're losing so much detail that it's an unfair trade-off.
    I recommend ImageShack or PhotoBucket (or any of a number of other free image hosts)...they typically don't resample your images when you upload them.

    Seagoat, I have my own webspace that I FTP everything to. Will my sig be okay as a jpeg?
    Also on your banner you have specific data (IE guild status, level) I'd image you have the image in your edit program and can simply open it up and change the info whenever suits you? P.S. nice site.

    Edit: Nother quick question (i think) How might one go about someday (maybe) making a simple sig that had easy to change data (for as many as 12 toons) [since I am a stat nut, KVD, kills, status, etc] how might that be possible?
    Odds are I'll never have the time, although I have the 'want to' . I think I may have spent too much time on my guild website these past 6 months (200+ hours at least)
  16. ARCHIVED-Hottbox Guest

    i would like a new signature for my pvp toon on vox, tell me how many screenshots you will need and ill work on it
  17. ARCHIVED-Seagoat Guest

    [p]Yes, if you FTP the image to your server, there will be no additional compression to have to worry about, unless you use some funky web-based FTP that does the silly "optimization" thing. :)[/p][p]Ten of my...fifteen? (or so)...sigs are dynamically generated by the guild roster on my website. :-D The information is pulled from the roster on SOE's website, inserted into the roster on my own website. Then another (related) script takes that info and plugs it into an image that's generated when the roster updates (every 3 hours or so; it's cached in the meantime) so I can display my info for the world to see! No constant editing for me...the script does it all. :)[/p][p]I have a tiny hand in helping to develop Roster Master for Dragonfly CMS (project website), and it's a great -- free, just like the CMS -- tool for scraping the information from SOE's version of my guild's roster and putting it in a pretty format on my own website -- plus adding a lot of great features, like a HQ and Access quest tracker, the dynamic sigs, avatars, etc. I can't imagine being without it![/p][p]<== RM4DF fangrrl[/p]

    I have always wanted to try to incorporate Roster Master into my website. Im glad they at least made EQ2Roster able to work on guildportal. I always tried to read up on, and use the Roster Master, but for some reason I just don't quite get how to use it. I soo wish that I could.
    And awesome idea with your sigs like that. Its genious to have that capability on a sig.
    Whats the best place to start reading again to try and figure out how to incorporate Roster Master into my site?
  19. ARCHIVED-Seagoat Guest

    [p]Vy, I'm taking this over to the Roster Master thread, so we don't hijack Ronja's thread any more than necessary. :)[/p]
  20. ARCHIVED-shirka Guest

    [p]wauw, talk about change of subject, LOL! you guys did some discussing :) [/p][p]I was disconnected for a few days due to a break in The Cable. Fortunately they could repair it today. I'm back![/p][p]I'm working on the 3 animated sigs for Vy atm. @ Hottbox: I only need 1 screenshot if it's a good one, hehe. Better to take 3 or 4. That will give me a choice in your poses (take one from left, rigth and frontal and some pose you like. preferably in broad daylight and settings high) post the links here in this thread. When you see your name on the working list, you know I downloaded your screenshots. Don't forget to answer the questions![/p]
