How.... K_Kid.... uughhhhhh:
Nice K_Kid banner one of my users made for me
Too bad i can't use it for my sig...Meh, oh well, no biggie.
Greetings. You can indeed set that as your sig. Just use the image tags.
This is UBB, I'm used to vB a bit more (Hopes not to get hung for that statement), but the tags are all and all the same...I just say to hell with BB tags anymore; I just turn on HTML, and make BB tags for the complicated things, like playing Flash in a post [flash]url.swf[/flash] or Iframes in a post [iframe]URL[/iframe] (For those of you that don't know what an Iframe is, it allows you to frame another web page/ site/ ect. in a post or "parent" web page)...
I used to post on a few UBB's, but they went under, or converted to vB...Kinda hard nowadays to find a UBB as active as this one is...
EDIT: I added a smaller banner than that, but I guess it won't show untill I make another post...Same thing, but smaller...
EDIT#2: Showed up, but not untill after I editted (?) weird, there was a lag there [ 10-21-2002: Message edited by: K_Kid ]

Hmm, I had a problem putting a banner into my sig before, using the [*img] (With the "*" removed of course) tag...Maybe that banner was a bit too big??

this board is pretty isolated--and the code isn't exactly standard UBB.
sigs have to be under 100 pixels total--six lines at 800x600--or else they get cut off. this is generally to avoid clutter. your other was too big, and with this you may want to try alignment codes (which, at the moment, slip my mind) to get it all to fit. otherwise, it's a teensy bit too large.
hooray for repitition! [ 10-21-2002: Message edited by: hard technology rock ]
we get by with UBB. it treats us well. usually.
So I see the Admin must know how to hack with PHP code (at least, I think that's what UBB uses)...
PHP is wonderful. If you know what you're doing, you can add all sorts of things to a board. I'd like to obtain a copy of UBB myself sometime to see on the source code level how different it trully is from vB...
I'm sure the Database is still using MySQL, which I know a few things about as well. I'm still fairly new to forums in general. I started back in January I guess, posting on VGC, which isn't exactly what you would call a friendly place. Let's just say the Admin there is a little "Different"...
I had to learn everything I could in a short period of time, and I learn new things every single day. My motto has always been, "Never is good enough...That's when you stop."
I'll be going back to school soon in the spring. I'll be taking up a few Programming courses, some PHP/ MySQL, and a few other databasing courses, so I can be able to serve my community better, along with maybe doing this kind of thing professionally as well. Nothing like getting paid to do something you love...
your sig isn't being cut off.
and Drysart hacked this board in and out...the only thing it really shares with other UBBs is its name.

Translation...
Statement #1: I haven't fallen off a rock and have found this place...I've posted on Messageboards before...
Statement #2: Probably not as long as a lot of you here...
Hopefully, that clears things up...I do that a lot sometimes
