Erisad
I was wondering...how do I make a rando-sig? sweatdrop


It's funny I got this PM, because I was considering making this thread for a couple of days now. I hope you don't mind, Erisad, my answering you here ^.^

First off, if you want a signature that'll be a diffrent picture each time a page you posted on is loaded or refreshed, you need a randosig.

The first step you take to getting one is to have an image hosting account, preferrably a free one like onPhotobucket. Upload whatever images you want in your randosig onto your Photobucket account, and keep the window with the page full of images open, but minimize it.

Open a 2nd window and type in www.cutandpastestrips.com in, this site is also free, so click the sign up button and get your account going. Once your account exists click on "members area" and look to the right for the list of options. You want 'random images'. There, copy each URL from the pictures in your Photobucket account and paste them in the designated area on cutandpastestrips.com. Select that you're finished and then take the URL it gives you. This URL is what you put in your Gaian (or elsewhere) signature. Now you have a randosig!

Warning: Gaia has actually just disabled my signature for being too large, as I'd figured since it was random if someone thought my sig was too big they could just refresh and no prob. The mod who PM'd me didn't think that was the case. Now I've got to go resize each picture and re-do my randosig's URL's before I can have my Gaian signature re-instated. Don't let this happen to you blaugh

While I'm in the swing of things, Zaphriel kindly provided some code for anyone to use to make the pictures in their signature link to places ^.^ Just replace whichever URL for the picture you want -or randosig URL- or place you want it to link to.

AH I made it work! If anyone else wants to, and didn't already know how, then just copy the code below and put the pictures URL where I put XXX.

Another question. How come every image I try to save onto photobucket is the "wrong type" even if it says jpeg on the end? gonk

Shouldn't it just say '.jpg' ? Post the URL?

Yes it should just say jpg, but some saves are dumb and toss in the e too.

There's also a thread in the extended feedback forum... Here:

Thanks for this! I have another question though, how do you make your random sig link to something? And can you make each random sig link to something different?

You can link all the images to one url, but I've not seen one where each image is a seperate link. I wanna do this too.

I was afraid that's how it worked, ah well, I'm still glad to have it random!

Really? I find it to be one of the more friendly groups to post with, not as good as this one, but a close second wink
