Sharing is the theme of this quick post, and boy-oh-boy do I have some fun stuff to share with you! In my free time today I managed to finish up a dynamic signature script I had begun a while back and forgotten about. You should be able to use these on most forums, as they are in .png format (tell me if you would prefer another format, and I’ll see what I can do ). In any event, here are the ones I have created thus far:

At this point I noticed a major problem… I’m horrible at graphics, and have no sense of what looks good and what doesn’t. As a result, I decided to assume that everyone will hate those three signatures, and created a slightly different type of signature. For this one, you can choose the colors yourself! Here’s the format:

… where {BACKGROUND} and {TEXT} are hex codes for the colors you want to use (BG is the backdrop and text is all the text and the border). What? You say you haven’t memorized the hex codes for every color in the rainbow? Well that’s not a problem… head over to http://www.colorpicker.com/ and go crazy! Remember, however, not to include the # in the url. Now that I have sufficiently confused you, let me show you some examples:

(Yes, I did make this one ugly on purpose…)

Hmm… maybe that didn’t solve my graphical problems after all. Maybe you guys will be able to come up with something nicer looking – make sure to leave a comment if you do! If any of you want to take a shot at designing some signatures from scratch, I’ll gladly take any help I can get, and I’ll code them up right away for everyone to use. If you are wanting to make a design, do whatever you want but try to make them 350px wide if possible, and leave room for the “Recent Posts” and “Statistics” (those two things should be in the same layout as you see in all the above sigs).

The premade signatures will update whenever anyone comments or a new post is made, so they should always be up to date. The custom colored sigs are actually regenerated every time they are loaded, so they may take a wee bit longer to load (not more than a second though… probably milliseconds).

I hope these see some use, and like I said, this post is about sharing so make sure you use these sigs wherever you can to help The RuneScape Blog keep growing! Again, any submissions or suggestions for new designs are welcome! I may get around to making some under-sigs in the next few days
