I was wondering if someone could see if they can come up with a .sig for me? Im not very good at art and even worse at computer art:( I would be most appreciated if people could mail me there ideas:) I would like it to be something to do with either the name "vinnie" or the address "vin...@akeake.its.vuw.ac.nz". mail your ideas to the above address. -- Vin. _ _

One of them has a sig-blank section you may find of use. Otherwise you can do what other mere mortals do and just use your address and a pithy quote (it's what I did when I used an interface that allowed sigs). -Sylvia

One is to check out the sigs I have been (and will be) posting to r.a.a, from the past SAAAs. Also, you can FTP the big Best of the Scarecrow's Sig Gallery from Jorn's or Chris' FTP sites. And remember, a sig doesn't have to be fancy. As it says in the FAQ, "You might simply 'Figletize' your name, pop in your addy and a pic, and presto, instant sig:" | | 'Guitar John' || ___| joh...@foo.bar.edu | | | || / _) | | | _ \ __ \ __ \ \||/ __ \ __ `__ \ | __| __ \ \ | ( | | | | | /()\ | | | | | | | | ___/ ___/ _| _| _| _| \__/ _____/ _| _| _| _| __| _| _| The only thing you shouldn't do is cop somebody else's sig. Other than that, most people do 'find' ASCII art somewhere and use it in their sig. And you can always use a quote or two. If you are posting to the ASCII groups, or sending an email message, you can use a big sig. But for most groups, 4 to 6 lines is a good rule of thumb. -- __ __ ________ ___________ __ ____ __ ________________ _______ _ __ ____________________ _ ___________ _ ______________________ ___________ ________________________ _ __________ __ ____________________ _ ____ _____ ___ ____ _____ _____ ____ _______ __ __ __ / __/ /____/ /__ \ /__ \ /____/ /____/ /__ \ / ___ / / / / / / / ( ( __ __| | ___) / ____ __ ___) / / / / / / / / / / / \ \ / / ,/,/| | / _/ / __/ / / / _/ / / / / / / / / / / ____) )/ /__ ,/ /__| | / /\ \ / /__ / /__ / /\ \ / /__/ / / /_/ /_/ / /_____//____//________|/_/ /_/ /____/ /____/ /_/ /_/ /______/ /_________/ ________ _______ _ __ ________ ______ __ _______ ______ _ ___ _ _____ ____ _ _______ ____ __ ________ __ __ ___ _ _ bob...@gagme.wwa.com _
