User talk:Darthmat/signature
Hi Darthmat - it's fine to use images in your sig, but there's a rule an ignorable policy or something that says images in sigs shouldn't be more than 11px high (I think that's right, and am far too lazy to find out exactly). As such, you need to shrink that funky little avatar down a bit, or some admin might be sarcastic at you! Other than that, it looks good to go to me - just make sure when it is fully ready, you either remove the rest of the content on that page, or create another page for it! --SirU.U.Esq.

Shit. >< Since I am on a really crappy computer, I didn't shrink it manually, but edited the HTML to make it smaller. I'll just replace that 20 with an 11.
Done. - Darthmat (talk to me) 20:24, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
- Okay, that's cool. I like the sig. (I just spotted the rule BTW, it's 12 px - hey, that 1 pixel might make all the difference!) Now you need to pop it in a page by itself, then go to your preferences page, and in the "nickname" box add {{SUBST:nosubst|User:Darthmat/sigpagename}}. Tick the "Raw signatures (without automatic link)" box, and you're done! Use the 4-tildes or signature button (Image:Button sig.png) to use your saved signature. Give it a try on my userpage. You know it's working if you edit the talk page agsain, and don't see all of the code for your sig where you just signed! --SirU.U.Esq. VFH | GUN | Natter | Uh oh | Pee 20:34, Apr 28

Thanks Jacques_Pirat and Under User. - Darthmat (talk to me) {{{1}}}
Also, if you want to use the custom timestamp style you have there, replace the date you put in already with this:
{{{1|}}}
In the signatures box in your preferences, you need to change it to this if you want the same format:
{{nosubst2|User:Darthmat/signature|{{CURRENTTIME}}, {{CURRENTMONTHABBREV}} {{CURRENTDAY}}}}
That should work.
