I completed my like button, I'm not sure how to turn anti-aliasing off on the text though as it looks a little soft, I tried using negative values for the colour of the text like the php docs suggest but that completely ruins it.

look in my sig to see it    \/\/

^^Read this please LS97 

anti-aliasing off? I think that's the font's fault. Maybe try courier new or something easy.

Oh, yes! ITotallyForgotAboutThatOne.They recently worked out that you could just chop up tabs and get a couple of spaces that way. It means a lot of paperwork but no-one notices the difference and it neutralised the problem for the time being. I believe there's a hefty reward for space mines all the same, so keep your eye out for little bits of stuff you can't see in the soil, there may be one nearby! We're too young to be paying taxes but I believe our parents are becoming rather fond of camelCase to cut down on their monthly grammar bill.

LOL!

Save spaces? As in reserved posts?

It would be possible if the Scratch team allowed the API to read the session variable of the viewer, but I doubt they would let that happen; it's probably against their privacy policy, I could technically do it with IP addresses but then you would need to know the IP for each person you wish to personalise the message for.

Furthermore, how on earth would moderators keep track of bullying sigs that target just one person?! It's a nice idea though 

Aaahh!!! You just gave me an idea!!
Don't worry, nothing malicious. But sparks, you'll probably be seeing news from me in my sig.

I'll look out for it.

Sparks, please check my signature (and the image below).
What does it say?

Something that looks like an IP address.

Wait, that's my IP address.

Annoyingly the bgimage for the textrenderer fails to accept some PNG images, unfortunately the ones I want to use.... they don't have transparency in them, I have no idea why they fail.... example

________________________________________________________________________________

I've expanded LS97's code. Rather than only accepting PNG files it now accepts PNG, GIF, BMP and JPEG

Though BMP and PNG seem to have a lot of trouble...

I used the online-offline thing in my signature in a rather interesting way.

^Soon to be my sig as soon as I tinyurl it, it's a lot of code! It was a real challenge to get it looking okay using gifs 

EDIT: curses! It's too wide!!!! Anyone know the width of the sig space, btw?

EDIT: That's a little better.

EDIT: 35 characters too long to be allowed as a sig 

just tinyurl it as you said you were going to XD

http://tinyurl.com/3qmoro7 is too long?

That makes no sense, how much other stuff is in there..?

There are 6 images and an URL. you can' pack it all into one...

OR CAN YOU? MWAHAHAHAHA http://iusedtohavehair.files.wordpress. … .png?w=260

EDIT: no, no you can't. Foiled. http://images.wikia.com/simpsons/images … S_Card.png

lol nice pictures.

couldn't you do a tinyurl of all the tinyurls put together?

Edit: Oh I See what you've done. no idea what you can do.

I have a C++ writer so if you give me the code I can convert it to .exe if you like.

Well my sig works, there's no character space left to link to the API though    I don't even want to link to my project much, just wanna show off what the API does! 

I used the new bgimage attribute for the sig. Basically, any textreturn, if you add a bgimage tag with an image link, it will set that as the background. The text colour and size edits are documented already    it's a bit picky with PNG and BMP though, I had to go with gif.

^I meant when you're done 

I think what I've learnt from getting this into my sig is that the API ought to be able to handle say four requests at once, each return with a settable colour/size/position onto one image. It could be tricky but it would be worth it to cut it all into one single tinyurl.
