Ｄｉｇｉｔａｌｌｙ Ｄｉｓｔｉｎｃｔ: Signature Tutorial Thread

[Erwin Smith]

I still can't figure out how to split a gif ._. anyone can help?

i use online image editor to split my gifs. use the crop tool and [make sure to save the image before doing anything] and find the half way mark [if not, crop the gif by 1 px]. crop it at the halfway mark so you have one half of the gif - save it, then go back and do the same on the other side.
if you need a clearer explanation, feel free to pm me. ^.^

There are resources at the front of the thread. Please read those before asking. That is why the front page has all the good stuff, so people don't ask unless they need help with a specific website for 'x' reason.

I use EZGif for the record. *Points at my Signature*

Thanks for the help last time. :D
Silly old me got impatient though, and I did some more work on the thread. Now I can't seem to fit in the fixed box...
Please help again? Sorry to bother you.

The way you redid yours had a lot of unnecessary transparent x's within the boxes.
I continued from the one I did the previous page and re-edited it with the style you have created.

While we do encourage you to have a go first, sometimes it does take a while to figure out the problem within the coding. Congratulations if you do manage to find another way around a problem you encountered, but let us know if you have moved on so when we help, we don't get the 'thanks anyway' kind of thing. We are not always online unfortunately.

Only a few people know how to use the boxes in the manner you needed the coding for. The harder your coding is, the longer it is bound to take for someone who knows what's wrong to reply, if you know what I mean.

With that said, I noticed that the space between the line margin where the text starts and the left boarder of each box is different. This is due to the text being right aligned in the box to the left alignment. To fix this, you can add Transparent x's to the right of each heading so eventually they line up. It is a little bit of a chore to do, but it will end up making the overall aesthetic look more pleasing.

Hey guys
Definitely not a master of coding here, so while this siggy-in-progress feels very me right now, it needs some work
I'm about to go looking for some cool fonts that will work here, and more shades of gray,
but do you think anybody could help straighten this out for me? It looks crooked in my signature and
aslkdfjghlkg
I can't do crooked

Could anyone take an image of my sig as well? I don't know if it looks the same on others' screens since I finished it.
