i like this one. The signature is high contrast, sharp, spooky.....very cool.

OK, I am not sure that sword is working. You are from Texas, perhaps an AR15?

I am a little fussy with the right sword for the Job and for that image it is the wrong sword. Ok, I am way too fussy on swords.

P

well...i am more of a lever action kind of shooter. My son likes the auto's. I don't see the same sport in it. Except with varmint hunting.

Maybe ill get a shot of my 30-30 Marlin and put it on there. It was my dads gun. His "cowboy gun" as he liked to call it.

OH, YEAH!!! I like it, but I'm wondering if there is a way to make the words red? with maybe some blood dripping down off the bottom... ? LOL If not, that will do just fine.

Send it!

Thank you, 74Templar. I've been seeing those on posts ever since I joined over a year ago; and I've asked where to get them, but no one ever responded. I'm so happy to finally find this thread.

First pass. If it's ok, I'll post up the code for you use it.

Just getting it over here so I can compare it to the red one above (first post).

Will my thread be linked to this, if someone clicks it?

Its all in the way you code the entry.

More red;

I can do the blood effect, but it probably won't look as effective on such a small image (plus it's the middle of the night here lol). Besides, blood and gore is straying a bit into T&C bad stuff. If you're still keen I can have a go in a few hours when I wake up properly.

Here's the code you'll need to copy into your signature space under TOOLS+

Make sure before you hit submit you remove any spaces in the code line so it's all one line. You'll soon tell if you've missed any, as the image won't show up otherwise.

The code line above is for the red wording, this one below is for the white wording.

Once you've done this it should show a centred image which will also be a link to your thread.

Oh, YES!!!! This is just great. Forget the blood. I'll go with this. Go get some sleep, and thank you for helping me.


You all rock!!!!

Testing...

Oops! Let's go try that again!



AWESOME!!!!! Thank you so much!!! VERY COOL!!!

reply to post by sled735


You've still got one space at the very beginning between the [ and the url. Take it out and hit submit it should work ok.

ETA. Sorry it's at the second point between [ and atsimg.

Second ETA: That's the one.
OK, off to bed for me now.

How does red look with my avatar? It makes the signature pop. But I liked the blue I had too. Which one do you think works best?

reply to post by sled735


I think we should do a layout for the full background. If you like what you had earlier, the instructions are pretty simple, and are on page 1 of this thread. Or we can do something to align to what your signature has in it (which is quite cool itself).

But obviously a bigger canvas gives you more information. More detail. More color. All the good things in life.

Is there a way to send me a sample of what you're talking about so I can see if I like it?

reply to post by sled735


give me a bit. I have to wrap up loose ends here at work, but will head home in about 2 hours or so. After that, it would be my pleasure to work this out for you.

So, to give a primer, you like dragons, and are partial to the image you have currently? If that is the case...easy peasy i think I can fix you up.

reply to post by bigfatfurrytexan


Sounds good.

Yes, I like what I have now because it has both animals/creatures I like in it. And I like the signature work too.

Is that a dragon? I thought it was a New Jersey Devil! LOL

I'll look for you in a couple of hours. Thanks!

P.S. Oh, and I would like to have something on the layout that says: ATS Deny Ignorance!

reply to post by sled735


Here's an idea... since that is a dragon, not a NJ Devil, can you make something using these pics:
Maybe have the N.J.Devil first flying down toward the unicorn. And the unicorn is raring up towards it, ready for a fight?
I see they are different sizes, but I don't think you will have a problem resizing them to fit each other, right?

I don't know how that would look with the different background colors in each picture. That might not work.
Anything you can do about that?

reply to post by sled735


sure can. it'll just take a little bit. Before i head to bed it will be posted for you.

Ahhh.... My big fat furry texan! I appreciate you!

I'm away for less than 24 hours and the thread goes up 2 pages.
