Which will bring u to >choose a style
Click on the style of your choice.
Now the next page will open, where you will edit all choices.

Which are >Logo Text, Font, Text Color, Background Color, Background Texture, & File Format.

The first choice > Logo Text > Clear it and type in the name.

Next click >Font > Choose your Font
And so on and so forth.
When you are done, click on > Render Logo.
It will then Render (Create) your Signature.
Right click on finished logo and click on >save picture as.
Right click on that.
Box will open

Clear box> then name it and then click> save.
Name it as you choose.
This will make it easy to find when you are ready to upload it to a Photo Hosting Site.

A good one is Photobucket

Scarlett
Please CGM3 if you don't mind I'd like to keep this thread clutter free. No offense. So that if anyone has any questions concerning the Topic they can receive answers without having to sift through everything. Of course I do not mind any input or help from you. Thank You So Very Much, Scarlett smile.gif

This one is just a little more complicated than the Cool Text. But there are more choices available.

Flaming Text


Both are free. Although with Flaming Text if you register (which is also free) You have even more options available.

Now this .. I Like!
Scarlett

sad.gif Hi Scarlett,

I have used your link to Cooltext and saved the image as a .GIF to My Pictures (Office 2000 on WinXp SP 2).

My dilemma is how to load this image to my Sig.

I don't know of any photo upload sites that I can use!!

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated

Thanks,

Kev'
Scarlett
Hi kev. smile.gif

Here are a couple that I use.

This one is best for smaller images. Like your sig.

Photobucket Image Hosting and Online Photo albums

This one is better for larger images.

ImageShack - Hosting


I can't wait to see it. icon_bubbles.gif

Cool Text and Flaming Text

These are free online sites. Cool Text is fairly simple. While Flaming Text has more options available (especially if you register). Which can make it a bit more complicated.

You guys should try messing around in Photoshop. I taught myself how to make signatures, and it's really simple.
nanakat
Thank you Scarlett for the links to Cool Text & 3d Textmaker and for the information on how to post them in your sig. I made this one on Cool Text...


Just now made a new one on 3d Textmaker.
Thanks again smile.gif

Kat

Edit: I think this sig takes up too much space. What size do you recommend on 3d Textmaker? This one is 250x250.
nanakat
I get a 404 when I try to access page 2. Is there a page 2?


Edit: Please delete this post...it was meant for another topic of yours whistling.gif lol
Thanks

Kat
Scarlett
I was able to view this, the second page. Your posts have been placed on this, the second page also.

Edit: I think this sig takes up too much space. What size do you recommend on 3d Textmaker? This one is 250x250.


Nanakat, The one with the bubbles is 197 x 64. The red animated one is 200 x 200. Because it is animated I'd imagine. In my opinion niether one is to large.

Great job BTW. smile.gif clapping.gif
nanakat
Thank you Scarlett smile.gif
I thought maybe the animated sig might be a little too big because it has a white background which bumps my quote down further. I like both sigs & am trying to decide which one to use...think I might use the bubble one, I like the light pink color in it smile.gif
Scarlett
I'm drawn to the bubble one as well. The soft pink is a very soothing color. You used the "felt" style didn't you?

You did do a fantastic job with the animation though. thumbup.gif
nanakat
Thank ya thank ya smile.gif Yes I used the felt style. I played around with the different ones for awhile last night & came to like that one the most. Pink has always been my favorite color & I really like the soft pink in the sig smile.gif
efizzer
I'm working with Photoshop m'self! What do y'all think so far?



Be honest, i'm open to serious criticism. whistling.gif
