Newbie Of The Awards 2005 - Award Ceremony!

If the Ivory Tower is the brain of the board, and the Transformers discussion is its heart, then General Discussions is the waste disposal pipe. Or kidney. Or something suitably pulpy and soft, like 4 week old bananas.

Given the context, I'd suspect the latter...
Grrr. Argh.

Cheers Preds, you have excelled yourself! :) The sig and avatar are fantastic and I will treaure them :D

And thanks to everyone for the kind words (and votes!). You've given me a warm glow

However, as I am as technical as a dead squirrel, I will require some guidence; how do I retreve those images so that i can load 'em up as my sig and avatar? I'm sure the answer is obvious, so feel free to mock me, but I'm clueless!

Venereal. :p

And my pleasure, Scraplet. These here contests are always a bit of fun. :)

I'll have a see if they have the instructions in the faq. :smokin:

I can tell you however, if you just want the pics for starters, right-click on em' and chose save as, and then where you wanna' store em' on yer hard-drive.

EDIT: After hastily checking rules and faq I say they are rubbish on this subject, so here we go, confusing instructions coming up.

Right, you have the pics on your hard-drive, 'aight? Let's start with the avatar, you go to profile, up to the right of the link where you log out from transfans.

There you will go to the bottom of all them options for your person, and click browse and select the new avatar. :)

Errm... you change the sig in the same place, except it's slightly trickier. Go up again in the profile-page, and you should see the option for a sig, you put various kinds of text in your sig. So, put this here text in the field where it says Signature. Image except with no spaces between the IMG and adress.. Aannnd.. that should be it.


EDIT2: Cheers Besters, can't believe I missed that part.

Sorry Preds. I tried to load the avatar, but it tells me the file size is too big, so I can't :(

The sig should be working though.......lets see!

Yep, I know. It says "impactor Returns 2.0". ;) Or do you mean you have a sig for me, too! :D

Oops, I thought max-size was 6 kb for avatar, but apparently it's 5. I'll sort it.

'Ere we go.
