Go home Johnny.

If anyone can find any of the skins I made please email them to Forevever@aol.com
I can't remember all the names but specifically hunting for Lascivious, and DEVOUR (compilation with Jax) and any in the Impulse series which had 6 total. Auriferous, Gilt, Impulse, Nadir, and 2 others I can't remember but you dig.

There's currently a team of skin reviewers being developed. So new skins should be coming more smoothly and faster soon.

LOL nevermind on the go home thing.

Johnny, get yourself some ftp space, upload a picture that you draw of your name, and link to it using the "img" code.

Click Here for more details

hmm

johnny at home eh...


anyway there are some requirements and they can be found at the announcement thread... its like the one at the top with the voluntary guidelines


speaking of sigs i think i broke mine?

Well basically what the guidelines say are not to make it giant in pixel size or file size and not to include them with every single post you make

yea...I said it.

Sure thing, I'll host that in my 2gb worth of web space, hardly notice it in there, however I would have to then ban you for having such an outrageously large sig in the forums, your choice really

Okay, Angelfire allows remote loading of PNGs. So use a PNG on Angelfire if you want an image sig.

ok, I know for a fact that AoL doesn't block. Actually, aol has given me 22Mb's of space for my pages. but thats another topic.

Anyways, for anyone who is on AOL and needs to find their FTP space to upload to, use this keyword aol://5862:144/members.aol.com:/SCREENNAME
replacing where it say screen name with your actual screen name. You will find yourself in your AOL FTP space. Upload your image, and when linking to it, your code would be..
http://members.aol.com/SCREENNAME/imgname.gif
(replace screen name with your screen name and imgname.gif with whatever you named your image and its appropriate 3 letter extension (jpg, bmp, etc.).

Dig?

Hmmm ... must be anti-duk then as all I see when I try it is a blank "image" box. Sad, but true ... yes very true.

I'm using Spree, they totally suck ass, cause you can only upload certain files, and uploading is a bitch, but since I only have gifs and jpgs and the odd wav, I don't really care, and you do get unlimited webspace,and so far I havn't had any problem with remote hosting
