Title: Signature help please!
Post by: TheChillFangirl on May 12, 2015, 12:46:42 am
Hi guys!

I know I haven't done a lot on here lately, but I've been busy (like, really super busy) and I haven't been able to do a lot. That busyness (sorry if I spelled that wrong; I even googled it andf I was still confused :P) will (unfortunately but fortunately, it's almost the end of the school year!) still have to continue for a while. Just bear with me guys.

BUT! That's beyond the point. This is the help forum, and I have a couple of questions. They're both related to the signature at the bottom.

First: I finally (with all of your help (THANK YOU!!)) figured out how to put the gif I wanted for my signature. Unfortunately, with the amount of space that the gif took up, I wasn't able to fit my Loki quote (NUUUUUUU :'(). So I just shortened it. My question is, is there any way to make the gif smaller? Or am I stuck with the shortened Loki quote underneath the HUGE gif of the Avengers (I'm a huge Marvel fan, can you tell?)?

Second: This goes along with the quote at the bottom. As I look around on this site on the few minutes I can get (like I said, SUPER busy), and I see people with all of these different sizes of quotes and different colors on their signatures (and sometimes even with their regular typing) and when I go to my profile, I don't know how to change that for me. I mean, nothing against the classic FeralHeart font/color, but I think my quote is a little small compared to my gif (plus, I wanna experiment with different colors). I was wondering how you guys do it.

I think that's all for now.

Thanks for all of the help you have given me!

Are you trying to make the actual image smaller or what you put in [.img] codes smaller? Just making sure.

You can change the color of your text by using this code in your message.
Code: [Select]
[color=*COLOR HERE*][/color]Fun tip: You can also put in the hex code of a color in the space where you put the name of your color.

You can change the font by using this code.
Code: [Select]
[font=*FONT HERE*][/font]I don't know any lists of available fonts that can be used on this forum. (And I sure would like to know hahaha)

You can change the size of your text by using this code.
Code: [Select]
[size=*NUMBER HERE*pt][/size]

Well, what I did to put in the gif was I inserted this as suggested:

(http://now-here-this.timeout.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/tumblr_m4376dLOpj1qzgj88o1_500.gif)

Then, of course, I tried to put in the fantastical Loki quote.

I want to make the gif that I listed above smaller (sorry if this doesn't help, I'm still learning all of this forum stuff XD).

One quick thing about the codes for color and fonts and whatnot: wouldn't that take up space on the signature box?

Oh, and, is there a way I can just like bold it or italicize it or something?

Thanks!

Resizing a gif is rather difficult, but if you would like to shrink the actual image, you can use this.
Code: [Select]
[img width=*NUMBER HERE* height=*NUMBER HERE*]Or you can resize the image by using an online tool like this one (http://ezgif.com/resize).

If you would like to lower the character limit of what you put in [.img] codes, use tinyurl (http://tinyurl.com/).

To italicize or bold an image. Use this.
Code: [Select]
[b][/b]
[i][/i]

For easy access, you can use the toolbar above the message box (http://gyazo.com/456d13e72ca5908778010eccaa148a5e).

Text codes do take up character space in the signature box.

Thank you! Sorry bout that last reply, my computer logged me out before I could see what it had posted, so I didn't know it just posted the gif and not the wordy-linky thing. Sorry about that. :-\

I resized the gif with the website you suggested, and it works. Now I will finish my Loki quote and personalize it.

Thank you!

I found this in your signature.

Make sure when you resize it, download the new gif and re-upload it on an image uploading site like Tinypic so this problem will not happen.

Not that this helps your situation, but it's spelled "business".
