Use transparent text to center it.

i'm sorry if this question is just too easy to answer, i'm kinda new to coding and i just made my sig and avi :3 , but i was wondering, how do we get the transparent text?

Put [color=*transparent]*insert text here*[/color] but without the star in the code

@ nightlight,
when you choose font color and what not, the code should look something like this; [color=# BFBFFF]text here[/color] (minus the space)
so where the color code is, in this case the #BFBFFF, you would delete that code including the hashtag, and replace it with 'transparent'
like so; [color=transparent ]text here[/color], which should turn it into this;; text here, you should highlight my text to see it ^^

[caesou]

@nightlight, use the font colour command;

[color=transparent ]xxxxxxx[/color]

you don't have to use this technique for just borders and things - you can also use it to push text to a certain amount. different characters have a different "space" (so for example, a full stop (.) has a smaller space than an x)

No, that won't work. I need it in the center without it going like this;;

I'm trying out coding and I was wondering if anyone has any other templates that I could test out with. I don't want really complex templates, but maybe some simple ones like this one. Thanks! C: (I would prefer if you PM me them if you have any other examples)

There is a lot that comes with people handing out signature layouts such as permission for use from the person who made it and otherwise, this is why the current selection is somewhat small. There is a whole list of various layouts here, but currently this is all we have.

@Above with the box thing
Do you think it is beneficial for a post dedicated to various box types to exist? I have one more post to fill and I think this would be a good idea, do you think so as well?
