Well they did explain that the forces by the fan and sail would oppose... I think it was either Grant or Tory that said that it was most likely the sail deflecting wind backwards, not the sail, that was propelling the boat forwards...

To get back to signatures, it seems like your sig used to have text on it

@MrValentine Your sig doesnt work when i click on it, it's just a blank website

I have to be honest guys, 90% of the sigs on here look like they were made with MS paint from windows 95 days. Not sure if your going for the retro look or not but its pretty retron around here sig wise and honestly most games as well.

that coming from someone with nothing to show... shame really.. could have been a valid point, however not, argh mine looking like MS Paint? I think not, tbh I forgot windows came with it... I happily use my own preferred purchased for and paid for application developed by a company with some history... MS Paint... its for beginners, or someone with no budget, or for quick botch jobs... however I must say win7 has a nifty MS Paint... so depending on which MS paint your on abaout... it might be a bit rude to say so lol.

I'm going to call irony on multiple levels here.

Quote: "MS Paint... its for beginners, or someone with no budget, or for quick botch jobs... however I must say win7 has a nifty MS Paint... so depending on which MS paint your on abaout..."

Let me assure you that is nonsense: the use of MS Paint says nothing about skill levels, time requirements or resources available. It just says that MS Paint might've been the best tool for something. MS Paint isn't GraphicsGale by a long stretch, sure, but to call it 'for beginners' makes no sense.

I have a new sig!
Is there anyone who would be willing to make a better looking one for me?
I need a couple that look the same apart from the text where it says "Project Manager" would be different.

WOW!! A WHOLE TEN STINKING MINUTES!! I would NEVER consider using a different sig than one that took ten minutes to make either!


Lol just kidding!

Good point though, good point...

I made mine in GIMP in like half an hour and ill keep it as long as im developing my console, yes i am still in the process of that! I havent lost interest like i thought i would have by now.

So tell me, does my sig look like it was made in MS Paint??

Thanks Grog, for pointing out that saying any program is for beginners is retarded. Well-designed software is as good as its user and MS Paint by all means is well-designed. As are Photoshop/Paint Shop Pro and to a lesser extent, GIMP too.

You can import all frames using cntl-a (select all) Seems like it would be pretty easy and fast.

(btw check out my new PSN sig!)
