A thread where we can all get advice on making sigs, CONSTRUCTIVE critiscism on our current sigs or request new material (quotes, jokes etc.). Now also the nearly complete encyclopedia of useable UBB code at HG.

FAQ:
To create a sig go to my account -> Log In -> Edit signature
Hexadecimal # is short for Hexidecimal Number or Hexadecimal RGB. It is a series of 6 numbers or letters that tell the browser what color to display.

Resources:
Visibone Color Lab
HG Color Table

The Original Version of this thread

Code:
Bold, Italic, Underlined: [b]Text[/b], [i]Text[/i], [u]Text[/u]; text, Text, Text
Color:[c=Hexadecimal#/ColorName]Text[/c]; Text
Fading Color:[c=Hexadecimal#-AnotherHexadecimal#]Text[/c]; Fading Text
Double Fading Color:[c=Hexadecimal#-Hexadecimal#(2)]Double fa[/c][c=Hexadecimal#(2)-Hexadecimal#]ding text[/c]; [c=FF0000-0000FF]Text[/c][c=0000FF-FF0000]Text[/c]; Double fading text; Some notes: Try to make it in the center of the text, or down the center of a sig.
Whispering: [whisper]Text[/whisper]; Text

Quoting with Name:[quote=Bob]Quote[quote];

Quoted from Bob:

Quote


Lists, Bullets: [*]Object 1[*]Object 2;
  • Object 1
  • Object 2
    Lists, Numbers: [ol][*]Object 1 [*]Object 2[/ol];
    1. Object 1
    2. Object 2

    Turning UBB Code Off in Your Posts: [ubboff]Text[ubbon];[b]Bold text with no bold[/b] ***NOTE***: [ubboff] is closed with [ubbon] not [/ubboff]. It also for some reason deletes these tags when you edit, so its a good idea to back up any post using [ubboff] and [ubbon].
    The Code Tag: [code]Text[/code];
    RedFF0000
    Blue0000FF
    Green008000

    The Code Tag preserves spaces in posts. Good for making tables, charts etc.

    This CANNOT be done in sigs though I thought I would add it anyways. This is inserting an image:[IMG]url[/IMG]
    You can 'add' images to your sig by making a link to the URL instead.
    HG Admins are not willing to pay for the incredible amounts of bandwidth needed for maintaining large numbers of images being posted on the forum in the form of sigs, this is the reason why images are not allowed to be directly placed in your signature. If you really want an image, make a link to it as stated above.

    Tips and Miscellaneous:

    1. Don't use bright colors or neon if you plan on posting here unless you want that part to be hard to read on purpose
    2. Use the preview button before saving changes
    3. Quotes should be in quotes or italicized and the name of the person who said it afterwards
    4. Whispered sigs are nice and generaly are more aesthetic to the general public, they also take up less space, which is good too
    5. If you want to find how to make a special character/symbol and have a PC use the following method:
      Start Menu -> Programs -> Accessories -> System Tools -> Character Map -> Look around till you find them
      For a Mac:
      Apple Icon in the top left -> Key Caps -> Experiment until you find the right combo
    6. Try not to make your sig overused or cliche, experiment with new ideas.

    More to come soon.

    This thread is not for idle conversation or spam. This IS NOT another LPW.

    My quote should be above King Jared's because it is wider, and better. My quote should be above OT's because it is better, however his is wider, so it is on top. Jimmy BUffett's quote should be at the top of the website because he is awesome, but it isn't wide enough.

    @ slickman_g or whatever: Once again, it's fine and I tried to fix it but it looked way stupid.

    @ that other guy: I agree with flyingmonkey, it sucks. The colors are all completely completely and utterly messed up.

    Spaded Ace and FlyingMonkey, what youj fail to realize is that the siggy you claimed "sucked" was meant to suck, it was a parody of the FRR. Also, neither of you are in a place to talk, Echo, has mmore of a right to say my sig sucks(He has redeemed himself in my eyes).

    @Echo: What you're trying to do looks really good, but if you stare at it for a few seconds..it doesn't. The text looks great, but the hoopla around it does not match somehow.

    Heavy-Handed Word Response: That signature has an enormity of effeminate absurdities and your use of colors hints at you having been emasculated.

    Normal Words: It looks girly.
