I can't make a nifty sig pic like others can. It's good enough I have Dexter as my avatar I think

I shouldn't be too surprised that this is possible. But then again, I don't know how to program a computer.


Random avatar script I made.



Random sig script. This one pulls data from a MY_SQL database, and uses that to create the entire image. It's actually made up of 6 other images, plus the RedCirle font from the CoH Fansite Kit. PHP is fun!

I was originally going to have that sig image link to a different page, based on who was generated, but then I realized that I can't do that.

Same here, execpt I would go with Dexter from Dexter's Laboratory. I might open up MS Paint one afternoon and pump something random out. I haven't thought of anything clever enough yet.

The sig art I have was made with Corel Photo-Paint x4. The picture was captured with FRAPS shareware.

I have enough skillz with Corel to make some things. All I need is basic info about what I need and how. As for advanced stuff, it's a little out of my league.

My avatars are made from the same thing. Just a matter of clipping the original source at the right spot to make it look good.

Good thing we now have this feature for the forum boards. It motivates me into trying some things out with my seldom used expensive graphics program.

Now if I can just figure out how to make my own animated avatars........
