Hi.

I've been shopping around for a custom userbar for a while now and I was impressed by the fact that your company history stretches back 70 minutes. History and tradition are an important factor in choosing a userbar provider.

Do you have anything in monochrome, with an urban decay feel to it? Perhaps a ruined skyline?

Also, do you provide a fitting service, or is that an extra cost?

Do you have any images in particular that you would like to include? Or maybe an example of exactly what you are looking for?

That will be an extra charge. I have to contract out to my vendors for that service.

Well, I'll trot off and have a little look.

Of course, I realise a consultation charge may be applicable. That is the price one pays for bespoke and professional service.

Heres a photo of some imagined ruins....

Here is what I came up with:

[atsimg]http://files.abovetopsecret.com/images/member/bdaa6e42fc9b.gif[/atsimg]

Keep in mind this was thrown together fairly quickly. If you can find some images or a specific example of what you are looking for, I can do a new one for you.

Also, this one had to be a little larger in height than the other two I have designed simply because the image of the ruins would have been too compressed to even tell what it was at that height.

**NOTE: Do not use this graphic. It does not meet ATS Avatar & Signature Guidelines. It is being left here just as an example.**

I appreciate you posting the snap!

Splendid - but a bit colourful. I've had a real hoot trawling through the internet for this.

reply to post by PETROLCOIN


Can you do anything with this?

[atsimg]http://files.abovetopsecret.com/images/member/66a27eb5d60e.jpg[/atsimg]

The cheque is in the post.

reply to post by Silver Star


This is what I came up. I can work on it a little more later if you would like, such as if there are any other details you want added or any effects you want done to it.

Cool pic

Isn't it fro the movie Battlefield Earth ? With Mr. Travolta as a giant alien...

reply to post by PETROLCOIN


The picture was horribly tall, wasn't it?

Looking at it, is it too to high stretch it out as a userbar?

What you have done is pretty impressive and I love it! The only thing that puts me off is the writing part in it.

I hope I'm not being a nuisance customer.

reply to post by Silver Star


Yeah, any taller than what I have there and it will look stupid as a userbar in your signature. That's about the max height for a decent looking userbar. And if I stretch it much further it will be poor quality as far as pixelation goes.

I can change the text. Is it an issue with the font style or do you want the text removed completely? Or would you like the text to say something other than your name? Let me know. It's a quick fix.

edit on 10/2/2010 by PETROLCOIN because: I edited the graphic.

Please make sure you follow the ATS Avatar & Signature Guidelines which includes dimensions and file size.

GIF and JPEF file formats for any image with a maximum dimension of 500 pixels wide by 50 pixels tall. File size is not to exceed 25k, and animated GIF's are allowed

The above image does not meet the requirements of 500x50, and if placed in siggy will have to be removed.

No text at all would be good...

Gosh! I feel like I'm being measured up for a new suit - Thanks PETROLCOIN, This is first class service!

reply to post by Sinter Klaas


I don't know where it's from. I haven't seen that movie, but I have had the pic on my computer for long enough I don't remember where I got it..

Sorry, I had to cut it down some to be within the size requirements. You wouldn't have been able to use it if I didn't.

That is a screenshot from the game Fallout 3.

reply to post by PETROLCOIN

Thank you. It looks wonderful.

I've now got to figure out how to stick it on my signature bit!

Stay tuned for some monumental balls-ups in the next few minutes as I try to work it out...

Hey that sounds awesome.

I would appreciate if you made me one

I have no expections of what it should look like, just that it be similar to my Avatar, tons of room there for creativity

I am already hosting it on my ATS media account, so no need to save and upload again.

To put it in your signature, go to "TOOLS" on the top bar. Your account settings screen will come up. Scroll down to your signature section and paste the following code:

[ats img]http://files.abovetopsecret.com/images/member/32ab5dea8435.gif[/ats img]

Take out the spaces between "ats" and "img" and you'll be all set.

Edit: Nevermind. You figured it out already!
