banner thingy

[yegosimo]

i was wandering around and noticed that many ppl had of these things which i don't know its name:

that's an example, and ppl had some like "Windows hater" or "Sex addict" and they put them all together and included them in their sigs
what's the name of these little banner thingys or w/e
i wanna make some of my own

Signatures of course

Userbars. <--Linky

 

[Toasty]

Userbars.

I like those things too and never knew what they were called. Perhaps I shall add one to my sig too, as they don't hog too much space.

 

[thepreserver]

Yeah, they're actually pretty good. How do you like my custom made Emutalk userbar? I haven't found a single Emutalk userbar so i thought I would make one. :martin64:

 

[yegosimo]

thanks KingVendrSnatch for the link and for letting me know how these things were called
i made mine
someone can close this thread now

There is such a thing as too many userbars you know, and your sig is a bit too large imo. Look at toasty's sig, he only has to use the space of one user bar and it switches between what he uses.

 

[Clements]

Ya, I'm using 1280x1024 and it still takes up way too much screen area. Use Toasty's method.

Toasty's bar roxor

 

[yegosimo]

hm .. how can i do that

 

[ScottJC]

hm .. how can i do that

He does it with http://www.signaturebar.com/ I believe.

 

[KingVendrSnatch]

You can do it here<--Linky

Signaturebar.com does it as well. Heres the link for that one too

Could someone please tell me how i can use the space of one userbar to switch to multiples? I wanna be cool too!

Oh yeah, Preserver that emutalk userbar looks really tasty! :drool:
Any chance I can download that from you? I believe every proud emutalk member should have one in their sig! :nemu:

 

[KingVendrSnatch]

In my last post is a page that lets you do just that.

Though you can only use 10 user bars.

Thanks to you all! I found the animated userbar create thingy but having problems copying my URL's, it doesnt accept them! What am i doing wrong?

 

[Martin]

You can also create an animated gif with for example Macromedia Firefox and use as many bars you like.

 

[ScottJC]

Macromedia... firefox? Don't you mean Flash or photoshop or something.

 

[A.I.]

OK, I worked it out, as you can see. However, for some reason it wont let me use all ten userbars. It keeps on coming up wrong size or something which is a load of crap.

I wonder if you can use if with MSN, like put it in the personal message box or something, that would be way cool. If anyone knows how please let me know.

Edit: The userbar creator thingy is dodgy in http://www.signaturebar.com/ It wont let you use more than six userbars and thats if your lucky - most of the time it just stuffs up... so annoying.

But the userbar creator thingy works fine in
http://ubanimator.com/ You can have ten userbar thingys... yummy. Just thought i save people the trubble i had getting the damn thing to work.

Oh yeah, its much easier to save the userbars in your pictures folder or whatever to use later than to copy/past the URL code in one at a time*

*Thats for noobies like me who are less enlightened.

Please for the sake of my sanity close this thread now.

Probably meant Fireworks, and for people on the cheap, Flash, Photoshop, and Fireworks are not options. Paint Shop Pro or the GIMP can also likely do it (I know the GIMP can) and are cheaper.
