im premier and im cheap.

 

The one on my350z kicks ****.

 

i have been going with the flow...but when there's a change that i did not know about then i'm gonna ask....is there a problem if i ask?

also u say i'm talking out of my rear end making those statements about my sig....just look at my sig. it was never like that.
it changed but i did not do it...so how am i talking out of my ****?

my sig used to be in blue letters, with the S being red...and it was linked to a website(not an illegal website either). this was how it was b4 Feb 23rd of this yr

 

also, my sig works over on Driver...so why doesn't it work over here? are their rules regarding Sigs different then Myg37?

 

Apparently so.. html is disabled in sigs for registered members.

 

OT but does IB own this forum as well?

 

Yes.

Although this basic question has been asked numerous times, no definitive answer as to why the html was disabled for all but premier members has ever been given.
Me thinks "the change" was made to prevent regular registered members from putting pics in their sigs because even though it was not allowed/against the rules, a few people did it anyways. I remember a thread (before the change) where a member was asking why his sig pic was being deleted (by staff) and the answer repeatedly was something vague, not to the point. It took several posts by said member until they finally figured out that no sig pic was allowed for regular members. Instead of just making it easy and telling the member that, the particular staff member just kept referring the member to read the rules which some people had trouble understanding, (NOT ME)
But heck, it's not my forum, run it as ya'll see fit.
IMO, I think that the "tech person" that disabled the html to prevent the sig pics by regular members could not do that without disabling the html entirely, so now, thanks to some regular members that put pics in their sigs, (you know who you are) we now have no html capabilities whatsoever.
My solution was to make my "sig" in html like I want, save it in a text file and just add it to every post I make. To make things even better for me as a regular registered member, I turned off sigs and avatars in my user CP, so now as I read the forums, I see NO sigs (except mine) and NO avatars.
Works for me...
AND, for me, a premier membership is never gonna happen; I'm not cheap whatsoever. If I had to give one reason why I don't want to contribute, the answer would be one word, attitudes.
I know, I know, if I don't like it....
but I never said that I don't, just discussing things here okay...
So, was it "not possible" to disable pic hosting without killing html entirely or was it just not known how to make it happen?

I was wonder how you had a color sig DGCIALP. Ingenious of you!

 

+1
DGCIALP, how did u do it?
or mods, how did he do it? that's all i want

 

Tank U! The line above the text makes it look oh so real...
Now that that has come up, I might as well ask about the possibility of putting a tiny pic in the bottom of each post as shown below. It's premier member sized to keep in the spirit of the rules, although I realize this whole idea may not be in the spirit of keeping premier benefits for premier members. One reason I liked making the colored sig is cause I think as I mentioned above is that html was only disabled to keep out the pics and that colored text would have been still possible if it could have somehow been done.
I'll wait for a definitive answer before I make a habit of the new addition to my "sig"
Edit, boy now that I see it there I hope it's gonna be okay, it's a cool pic dont'cha think? It's technically not against the rules but I feel better asking first.

pretend that your responding to a thread, and make a sig with html,
make a line above it with the underline key the same size as everyone else's real sig,
use the "preview" button to check the results, don't actually post it!
once you perfect it, copy it in raw html form from the compose box you originally wrote it in,
right click and make a text document on your desktop and save (paste) the raw "sig" there.
copy and paste it in every post from then on and un-check the "Show your signature box"...

DANG.... You're a genius!!!!

 

i figured....but i still think we shouldn't have to do all that

 

The admin(s) who handles the server will need to answer the question but I do believe the html code was turned off for regular users to stop them from posting sig pics and web-links. I believe the color sig is ok but because html is disabled it is not possible. The admins have been busy with other things like keeping the site up and running so I don't know how high this is on their list of things or if it is on their list.
