Dinoprophet Posted August 8, 2002 Share Posted August 8, 2002 This is a very, very fine point, but I think it's still worth mentioning. Currently, there is nothing separating the body of a post from a sig. I have seen several instances where a humorous sig was taken as a sarcastic jab that was part of the post. I've even seen the fallout of such a misunderstanding carried on for several posts afterward, taking the discussion from somewhat civilized debate to personal flamewar. Again, an extremely fine point, but it has had consequences and caused bad vibes. Even if nothing can be done about it, at least maybe folks will consider that that last sentence may just be a sig, not an insult. Link to comment
blahginger Posted August 8, 2002 Share Posted August 8, 2002 why not put a separator as part of your sig? (see below) ____________________________ The true traveler is he who goes on foot, and even then, he sits down a lot of the time. - Colette Link to comment
Dru Morgan Posted August 8, 2002 Share Posted August 8, 2002 Is there a way to 'align' your sig image so the text doesn't have to go below it after the first line and take more space? "Don't be so open-minded that your brains fall out." -Dru Morgan www.theheavenlyhost.com/dru Link to comment

Make the text part of the image. I hear that people with modems love that. Link to comment

Trying to get something started, eh Fuzzy? Pick on us poor defenseless slow 28.8K folk... (I object, but like I've said elsewhere, you have at least as much right to be here as I do.) I do like your idea Dru, maybe Infopop has some info on a way around it? I suppose if they add too many features, it'd make it hard for those less knowledgeable on the subject though. I wonder if you could fake it by adding the pic to the bottom of your avatar instead? Of course then the text would be way down ... As far as the original topic, I like it in italic like mine.
