I've updated mine. Specificially, the lower part. It was originally text. Now, it's an image, and it loads a random quote at the bottom.

I might expand it by a line, and also include my Now Playing info from WinAmp. Not sure yet...

Cool! I like the stamps. Credit goes to Bayani, he had the idea, first.

Let me guess... PERL script on the server?

Sadly my webhost is still stuck in the dark ages, and won't let me run that kind of thing.

"City of Heroes. April 27, 2004 - August 31, 2012. Obliterated not with a weapon of mass destruction, not by an all-powerful supervillain... but by a cold-hearted and cowardly corporate suck-up."

PHP Script, actually. And the quotes are stored in a MySQL database.

Thanks for the compliments folks!! I actually had to completely re-do it before I posted it, on account of me saving it flattened at the wrong time...

How's it now?

Great

Some really talented people! I really like that banner Soul Train, very cool. I got a new avatar I made from a artwork I got from Sorah.

Thanks Grae. The original was by Zenvious, and then Suichiro went and tweaked it even further.

Oh. The stamp is a detail shot from Celtic-Bolt's ST render. We need to see more of his stuff around these forums, yeah?

The Masked Shrike · 08-19-2009 05:23 PM

My internet was down all day yesterday, and I got twitchy, so I made a whole bunch of banners, and then found this neat-o php script thingy mentioned on this thread, and this is a run-on sentence so I'll shut up now.

But the banner making was actually more fun than I thought it would be.

Well I couldn't help setting myself up a rotating signature either. So, well, here it is.

BTW, I have to say, free web hosting sure has evolved by leaps and bounds from back in the day when I first looked for webhosting, from the days when geocities was still popular. Just, wow. I've been using webspace from ISP to avoid the whole issue, but, wow, things sure have evolved...

Kheldarn · 08-21-2009 07:01 AM

Neat!

Say... how'd you manage to make Fencer an animé character?

Apollinaris · 08-21-2009 11:17 AM

Oh that's simple. I hired an artist who draws that way. I commissioned Fencer a few years ago and didn't have CoH in mind at the time of the commission. I have a piece coming up soon where she should be in comic style, but since it's an action piece it's hard to say how she'd look for a signature. Here's the full piece of Fencer.*

In case you're wondering, the logo is done by me.

You can find the art that John Becaro did, which appears in my signatures posted here

And well, while I'm posting stuff. Sprites. Yay. I did the sprites with a little help and a lot of shoving them in other people's faces. ;p

*For the record, I like Becaro's work better. He's also a lot faster. The picture of Fencer took almost two years to get back.

Gah! Sprites! My weakness! I LOVE sprites!

And I can't find the old thread for MegaMan Sprites of CoH characters! T_T

Ok. Now you folks are really beginning to make me jealous. Especially Grae Knight, Apollinaris and Vivace. Just exactly what does a Brutha have to do, to get himself turned into one of these sweet signatures?

I'm only laughing on the outside
My smile is just skin deep
If you could see inside, I'm really crying
You might join me for a weep

Yeah I realized that but... darn.. I just can't resist showing off my art. Glad you like the sprites though.

I've had the first one done years ago, from before I came to CoH.
