SOS (Save Our Sigs) Instructions:

[AztecWarrior]

After the change from PSU 2.0 to 3.0, some people's "transparent" sigs with the olive drab background now stand out like a sore thumb. Here is how to convert your beloved sig.

1. Open up MS Paint.
2. Go to a page on PSU with your sig with your browser.
3. Scroll down to your sig and hit Print Screen.
4. Press CTRL-V in paint. The website should appear.
5. Using the box tool, form a box around your signature- get it as close as possible, within one pixel, but get some of the grey in there as well.
6. Using the tube-thingy, select some of the grey area and then select the paintbucket. Apply in the olive areas.
7. Unfortunately, you now have to save as a .png. Do so, ImageShack will host .pngs and the forum will take them. There should be no discoloration. Previously you could save as a .gif, but the new background discolors the entire image if you save as a .gif, so DON'T DO IT.

your color is still off.
just wait a day or 2 and some nice soul with photoshop will help out.
BTW. its called the eye-dropper. it takes a sample of the color you click on, and adds it to your selection.

Crap: I forgot to recolor the area under the barrel.

Edit: Fixed. Just proving you don't need Photoshop to sig.

It's horribly horribly off.

#333333 is the color of the forums, I think.

[AztecWarrior]

Negative, ghostrider- I see no difference. I'm at 32-bit color and I can't go any higher.

[AztecWarrior]

I see no difference at all.

[EineBeBoP]

Trust us, eh?

If frag'll send me the original, im willing to fix it.


Your color is 1A1A1A
correct color is 333333

Or you could do transparencies and never, gasp, have to change it based on the bg colour

but transparencies create Jaged edges. Not good looking

look down, do they?

They don't on .png's, but since the majority of n00bs use IE, which doesn't support .png alpha transparency, they're extremly underused shame really because they seriously do rock.

How it looks -
