multiple badges in signature
Posted by shivinigh on Wednesday, August 7, 2013 7:01 AM

how do you show multiple group build badges in your signature line without going over the max of 512 characters?

You have to put them into one image. You need something like paint.net. I am not very good at explaining this, and it took me a while to work it out. In paint, you select file and then new and then make it the size you want. You then use the layers function to put each image in to the large one.

Either that, or you can use a GIF animator.

I am a Norfolk man and i glory in being so

let me try to help bish clarify. it is one graphic file. i use photoshop but any graphic program would work.

1. start a new file 62 dpi (mine is GB WORKING).

2. downlaod the first badge, open it (or cut and paste) into working file.

3. size the badge

4. crop it. export as GB 1 BADGE

5. save as GB WORKING.

when you get a second badge open GB WORKING

add second badge, size and move it next to first badge

crop and export as GB 2 BADGES

upload to photobucket or whereever

replace IMG code in your signature with the new one.

hope that helps.

unless you are a serious graphics person, photoshop is way more than you need. i think a lot of folks do photoelements but you could probably find an inexpensive paint progarm too. just more mouse clicks do do the same thing
