Look at it and gaze in wonderment at the size and blockiness of its might!!

*sigh*
Well I created it in far less time than actually making a good one.
My real only reason was to show off my cool slogan that is ultra nerdy on top of an already nerdy nick no one could figure out in the first place.

That's 2X the NERDLINESS!!

One day I will create one that is as good as majhqa's.
I like the small subdued ones. Animated is nice too.
How on earth did I come up with this one?

cool, never used a png in here... but um... the only other thing about it that is cool is the cold blue color.

Hint. People like small fonts... if you dont have any of these pixel fonts grab them Here at tryptych.net/asylum Oh so yummy!

and ah... maybe use a color that goes with orange and brown? and um... make it a lot smaller. and ah... it would be dandy fine!

*looks around and takes a bite of hughs chocolate bunny*

Ho, Arthemis... I just looked at your sig for the first time... how many years have you had that one? anywhoo... That red text behind the person gives it a spooky kinky groovy 3d effect. weird.

*cough* well... its not really that bad in size in that tt is not tall... and tall tall sigs are just evil. Where is the devil when ya need him?

As far as extra space not used in a sig or not fully utilized, maskkks and genis's both fail like a person trying to milk a soy bean. *cough* now that might make a good sig... hmmm....

Somebody called? And yeah, I prefer wide sigs. It doesn't hinder in scrolling, and as long they're not both tall and wide... Izzay's right though, the extra space isn't really used for anything. The colorscheme is a tad out-of-place, too.

under 5k, well thats perfect, it looks like its about 20.

Yea, true tall sigs are much worse. Wide ones are much neater too.

But the text ... I still dont get it.

oh yeah... like i said.. a nerd within in a nerd kinda thing.
So here's your explanation, Hugh.

I'm a comic nerd, and I just thought I'd make my nick the same name as that of the (latest) Captain Marvel. (written by the great Peter David.)
Nerdly yes?

Then I knew Genis was just 'genius' without a 'u' so combining that with the nerdliness of rackmount server chassis heights (like 1U 2U 4U, are 1.75", 3.5", 7" respectively), I came up with the super-nerdly slogan involving the a wholly fictitious 0U reference.
Thus, "The 0U genius. All of the genius, none of the space" = genius + no Us = genis

Oooh man, what a ride that was, yes?
Anywho if anyone ever asks how I can take up no space, i then reply with yet another nerdly/comicesque statement like, "I exist within a quantum singularity." or "HULK SMASH!!".

So there you have it Hugh. See I'm stuck in this mode.. I can't get out.
Like right now, I'm thinking your nick is taken from that one Borg the crew on STTNG made muck up the rest of the Borg's singularity. Am I right? Or is that just your name?

I really must get out more.

Nurse! The inmates are acting up again...time for more meds and shocktreatments...(but not for you, Master Suho...you get 'dressed' in a Mumu...hehe...)

Man, I love yelling that down the halls...

Though I like blue, don't like the sig much...a bit smaller would be nice...it has a lot of wasted space...nice, simple, compact, maybe?

*glances around nervously, checking to see if njuice is anywhere in sight*

Seriously, though, tortured explanation aside, that is the biggest small sig I've seen in my entire life. It's shorter than my sig, and beats the file size by a bundle, but it just seems really big. Now that I think about it, actually, it looks like a small sig that's been blown up. It's very... conspicuous.

And the color is just jarring. In another forum it would probably be fine, but it just doesn't go with the Asylum color scheme.

actually its a bigger sig that got shrunk. I wanted it under 100px height.
and i didn't feel like redoing the font smaller for crispness in photoshoppy.

yes, i find png is the best format ever for size concerns.
Optimization in photoshop is muy excellente!

i like the color because it is jarring here.

also, i seem to be in my blue period or something, cause i can't stop using shades of blue.
it's just. so. gooood!

The poster has demanded we remove all his contributions, less he takes legal action.
We have done so.
Now Tyberius Prime expects him to start complaining that we removed his 'free speech' since this message will replace all of his posts, past and future.
Don't follow his example - seek real life help first.
