    Changing our sigs and avatars

    there has been a little talk here and there about looking professional and getting unified sigs and avatars.

    i propose the following:
    - we use the avatar that i curently use (thanks martijn sry if i spelt your name wrong) until another one is provided
    -in sig we all have some sort of stat thing. flashing one like me and mnay others of the big dc ones
    -something about helping to fight cancer and aids and other diseases

    i am open to any sujestions. we must get as many people to do this as possible!!!

    thx

    Why?

    We're an individualistic bunch of volunteers, not some kind of conquering XS Army goose-stepping across the parade grounds. We don't need no steenkin' badges, or some kind of freaky clone army shared identity.

    I think what the guys were shooting for with this idea was a sig that would be seen in many places and if they were all the same it would have more impact.
    Sounded like an interesting idea but don't feel pressed.
    It's not something that anyone would be forced to do.
    Sheet, nothing is forced here.

    If someone could point me the site to set up the flash sig, that would be great.

    I really want to streamline my sig a bit. And as for Beeker, he stays... that is how I can look for my posts fast

    If you loose Beeker I would have to see who posted also. The sig idea is ok buy the Avatar is just not my cup of tea.
    Here you go lv_d for the small stats.
    You get it from www.dcstat.com - make sure you tick the Custom Text 1 & 2 boxes when creating to get the moving text.

    But still the avatars are what makes us unique on XS on thing I miss on The [H] as well as other forums I go to. subliminal mesaging If they want to do DC on XS they would be here now. That is the bottom line.

    We need fresh blood peroid I have a little speal in my sig on [H] for a little recruting effort. Think off XS, We are all ready here!!!

    Look guys... we don;t want anybody to get rid of there sigs they currently have... use a mark of some kind about this size. WCG that can be alligned to the right of your present sig. We're thinking about something subliminal, which I had explained to some people. Subliminal. thats it. If you want to say Run wcg TILL YOU DIE or anything else that is your choice but the idea that me and hipno is on about is simple, contast to the forum backgroud and that may have a link in it to the WCG subforum

    I know riptide what the idea is and I say coming up with a starndard sig is fine with me but and avatar makes us unique. But also like I said if people on this forum wanted to do DC they would be here with us allready. Put XS-WCG in your sig on other sites you go to and get fresh meat. I just put a link on a e-bay auction I am putting up. What the hell might get some one.

    Wrong... many people arrived here after tha last email to help in Rosetta... many people who otherwise might not have came. And many have still hung around I suspect.

    True, but the ideas are not exclusive. We should continue to do our best to draw from XS, but it's a good idea to do sigs in other forums we frequent to pull from there.

    Also, our sigs and avatars here on xs don't do any good if we are not out on the other parts of xs helping people out or whatever so that people see them.

    thanks for the support riptide ya we don't have to totally scrap our sigs just put some sort of thing in it about wcg. and avatars well we can't force you to do anything but ones like mysticmerlin have are ok and so are ones like 2fink and yes customization is good but the more we spread the words WCG around the better.
