| | | Quotes in Signatures
I've seen a few signatures with quotes. I know you can wrap text in quotes, but how do you make it say who the original poster is?
If that makes any sense, thanks in advance.  |

| | You simply put say.... [quote=Magrus] instead of just [quote] for the first of them. The "=(insert Username)" gives you that.

| | | Just try and make sure that you don't place to many quotes, or to large quotes in your signature.
Try and keep it on a "respectable" scale - it is annoying when signatures take more space then posts. |

I'm one of those people who scream real loud when signatures take up too much space... |

| | | The ancient and honorable rule from UseNet is this: No more than two lines, including the citation if there is one. Bigger than that, and your response had better always be bigger than your .sig.

| | I like your sig. It's true and a lot of people ignore that. I won't complain one bit about it being there.

| | No problem. I have some music that relates to that, but the band uses some very harsh lyrics about the situation and I really can't post them in the lyrics thread. Shame, the music isn't that good but the message is.

| | Okay - I think the original question has been answered.
No need to spin off discussing something which doesn't belong in this thread or forum either.
Chit chat is for SYM
