Basically, why don't you ever come onto IRC anymore, and whatever happened to TheGirl? {{User:DeFender1031/sig}} 03:57, 7 July 2008 (UTC)
 
-
:I stopped using IRC because it conflicted with something else I was frequently doing in my browser (and, to tell you the truth, I don't remember what it was!).  I just remember IE kept freezing a lot when I was using it.  So, anyway, I fell out of the habit.  And TheGirl, happily, has gotten a life.  You know that very few people with lives use the wiki.  =]  {{User:OptimisticFool/sig}} 04:04, 7 July 2008 (UTC)

:I could upload an image of just Eh! Steve! (without the background).. I think it would look better.  Also, since you didn't have a sig to begin with, I didn't know what color or font you'd want, so I just threw something together.  Let me know what changes you want to see and I'll do it.. or you can certainly play around with it.. since it's your sig.  {{User:OptimisticFool/sig}} 00:18, 9 July 2008 (UTC)

::Thats so cool!!! Could you just make the pic a little bigger without the background and my name bold like yours but still in italics. The color is fine. Thanks so much! Oh and check out my user page.  [[User:Pacoman|Pacoman]] 00:57, 9 July 2008 (UTC)

:Now add <code><nowiki>{{User:Pacoman/sig}}</nowiki></code> [[Special:Preferences|here]] where it says "Signature:" and check the box labeled "Raw signatures (without automatic link)" then click "Save".  After that, <code><nowiki>~~~~</nowiki></code> will work to fill in your new sig.  Also, I want to point out that it's the norm to sign on the same line as the rest of your message.  {{User:OptimisticFool/sig}} 18:18, 9 July 2008 (UTC)

::::Hey Opti, check out this guy's user page User:Bluebry {{User:Pacoman/sig}} 20:44, 9 July 2008 (UTC)
 
-
:::::Yeah, Bluebry just mirror's what's in the sandbox.  By the way, you can link to wiki pages by putting double brackets on both end of a page title.  For example <code><nowiki>[[User:Bluebry]]</nowiki></code> becomes a clickable [[User:Bluebry]].  And adding a "|" (called a pipe, found on the same key as the backslash) can be used to change the text of a link.  Here's an example: <code><nowiki>[[User:Theyellowdart|Yellow Man]]</nowiki></code> appears as [[User:Theyellowdart|Yellow Man]], but clicking it takes you to [[User:Theyellowdart]].  Try something like that on your "list of way cool users" .. but be sure to use SHOW PREVIEW before saving, please!  =]  {{User:OptimisticFool/sig}} 20:57, 9 July 2008 (UTC)

What were you going to use those for on April Fools' Day, anydangway? Have everybody replace their sig with your sig or something? {{User:That Guy Over There/sig}} 05:37, 15 July 2008 (UTC)

:I can't compel anyone to do anything with their sigs, and it wouldn't be much of a surprise if I did.  I would guess that about the only people that would be surprised would be new users that join the wiki between now and 1 April 2009.  It would still be funny, IMHO, but not up to par with what the HRWiki has done in past years.  {{User:OptimisticFool/sig}} 14:54, 15 July 2008 (UTC)

I saw those signature options, and I have to say my favorite one would be the one mocking your sister's signature. just b/c that's whose signature you're mocking. And i also think my signature needs a little bit of color in it. I tried a couple months ago, but nothing ever worked like i wanted it to. And I also see you helping everyone else with their signatures, so i figured i'd ask. {{User:The Knights Who Say Ni/sig}} 16:43, 15 July 2008 (UTC)

Do you feel like doing another sig for my [[User:rly2Cheat|friend]]? I want it to be a surprise-ish, especially because she doesn't know what she's doing on the wiki. She likes Homsar and her favorite color is teal. No rush, I see you're doing sigs for other people now too.{{User:Acam30/sig}} 17:25, 15 July 2008 (UTC)

:I can stick Homsar in a teal shirt on an appropriately colored circle to have it match yours, or I can do this guy... http://img295.imageshack.us/img295/5130/homsarpinkuk7.png ... in a teal shirt.  Or a teal Chibo Robo!  Ha!  Anyway, remember, I need specifics.  =]  {{User:OptimisticFool/sig}} 17:40, 15 July 2008 (UTC)

::Wait i meant to type The Cheat. Sorry my mind was elsewhere. Anyways she likes this [[Image:firebert army.png]] picture the best. Maybe you could just make the font teal and leave the picture colors the same but take out the backround? And could you maybe try the first bold font on my talk page?
