ReallyAmazingParticleSignatures!

These cool signature images are created using particles. I'll do the graphics work for you, if you want. You just supply creativity and about 5 - 15 minutes from your day. It's worth it, especially with the low price of $0.00.  tongue

Here are some examples: (If you can't see them, I'll host them somewhere else.)

Some 150 pixel heights, just filling a signature.

120 pixels should fit a line of text underneath!

These amazing images:
fit under 150 pixels, short versions available for a line of text under it.
AND have a caption you can customize.

Other people will ask "How did you make that?". You don't have to link back here if you don't want to. But you can if you want!

First of all, use Chrome or Firefox to get best results. You can try another browser, but they aren't as good. If all else fails, get a better browser or let me do it for you.

How do you make them?
1. Right click here and choose Open in New Tab.
2. Toy around until you get one that you like. Try these:
-----Emitters make particles.
-----Fields move them around.
-----Drag stuff to move it.
-----Click stuff to change its settings.
-----Fields attract when green and repel when red.
-----Change the color with the settings. Left = Red. Right = Green.
-----You can have more than one emitter.
-----Try the emitter settings.
-----Press Clear a lot.
-----Try turning on Strings. Click again to turn it off.
-----Try showing or hiding stuff.
-----Single particles will be hard to see later. You have to have Strings on.
-----Most importantly, have fun experimenting!
3. Now, click the following buttons in this order:
Button 1: Hide Objects
Button 2: Strings (should turn OFF strings)
Button 3: Clear
Button 4: Quickly press Strings again (should turn ON strings)
4. Let it run until you like it.
5. Press Stop.
6. Now, log in to Scratch and press Quote at the bottom of the next post. Not this one!
7. Fill out the form and post.
8. Watch this thread and your picture should be ready in 1-5 days, depending on how popular this gets.
9. Copy and paste the code into your signature. Tada! Very pretty.

Flump, no... Trump? no... Pump? No!

What's the word? Oh yeah!
BUMP!

I really want to help someone make a cool signature, and I want to make sure there are people that see this topic, so I'm bumping it up.

No, not the user!  tongue  I mean the emitters and the fields. You can drag them to move them, and click them to change their settings.
