I was looking for a smaller version for my signature.
Now before you go complaining that my signature is too big,
that brings me to my next subject.... please see the following sample
signatures:

2) Random Signatures...
I write email to many people and we all have been tired of
getting the same sig file in every letter. Infact, since they get
boring and trite, I feel that defeats the entire purpose of a
signature file! To combat this problem, I wrote a Random sig file
generator (as you see above). Right now it works with: 115 pictures
and 747 quotes (that I have collected... I am a packrat).
As you can see, it flips the picture on both sides (the
program uses the file <LEFT-PIC> to *generate* the <RIGHT-PIC>), it
decides whether to use 1 or 2 pictures, with some size constraints
(though the size of the pictures is the biggest influence of that).
The size is generally around 4-7 lines... but I look at it since it is
different most everytime, that people are a little more lenient on the
size of the sig. If you want smaller sigs, then use smaller pictures,
and it all works out nice (see closing sig).
The Quotes are in one file in which the first line is the
number of quotes in the file. The pictures are in the same directory
as the quote-file, and they are all called : small.<SOMETHING> . It
will *automatically> incorporate any new additions in this
directory... as long as you follow the "rules." The same picture can
appear with different quotes.
My questions: 1) R U still OK with the size of these
examples... remember that these are larger examples (probably the
biggest they will get) and 2) who is interested in this idea?
Depending on the response wil depend on the next posting... though I
think that I should clean up the code a little! :) *snicker* I will
need the assistance of a C programmer for first testing on another
account... Also, this is UNIX based.
Thanks, and Keep The Faith
Jason
