Hey Guys,

 

I've made about 20 different Sig graphics and I can't seem to get the pixel dimensions right. My first one was 300x150 and it was a little small...then I moved it up and it was getting a little bigger and a little bigger...Finally I made one 2000x150 and now it's smaller than my original one.

 

John and Steve, I just want it to be roughly the same size as yours are. Could you tell me what the size of your graphic is so I can get off this damn photoshop and play some guitar? LOL.

 

Cheers

That did help thanks John.

I discovered in the "setup your signature" tab in the "edit html source" the width was set to 300, so no matter what size I made the graphic in Photoshop, it would be limited to 300px width. I simply changed that to 468 and now I fit in 😉

Hey Matt,

 

Glad you figured your signature link.

Here's  a suggestion for anyone else who's struggling with their signature - the easiest way to create one is to 'steal' one that you already like the looks of, edit it the way you like and then add to your profile.  This way you know the graphic is already sized the way that you want it, you can just changed the colours, the text and the link to work with your information.

All you need to do is right click on the signature graphic - click 'save image as' and download it onto your computer. Then visit Pixlr.com (free graphics program like Photoshop) and edit. Save the signature with a name that makes sense and then add it to your profile.

This will shave a lot of time versus trying to set one up from scratch!

Aaaahhha! So that's how it is done! OK, when I get my CD finished, I'll give it a try too! 

What would a jam session with Gordon Lightfoot, Collective Soul, and Damien Rice sound like?

Check out Greg Parke and you’ll have a pretty good idea!
