It's like an avatar. But bigger. And it goes in your signature. Hm. I don't really know any other way to describe it.

...but that's just my opinion, so don't let it bother you too much!

Sure!, since you seem up for it. I have...thin glasses, thick eyebrows and eyelashes(really thick eyelashes; if you can draw them and make me not look like a girl, I will be HIGHLY impressed) Dark brown hair, moderately sized ears(not elfin), and occasional zits peppered here and there. Good luck! {:)

Signatures can be easy if you can do avatars. They're just wider avatars.

here's an avatar
And a matching signature

Alternatively you can make them something completely different that just requires the extra space. Every banner for a webcomic you have ever seen can be used as a siggie (signature). They don't even technically need the signature, it's just standard fare.

I've always liked the minimalist Signatures, with the same width, but only like 20/30px Tall...

The banner like sigs always seemed a bit too big and space wasting if you ask me ]:P

yeah, but you're post is gonna be just as tall as your avatar and stuff anyway, so if the siggie expands upwards to the text, it's a good way to FILL space rather than waste it.

Heh, I guess it depends on the forum software,

But the main gripe for me is the eye killing "colour pollution" the banner sized siggys make... especially if everyone has them, and the same person posts a lot, you get the same huge pics filling up space... it makes the place look cluttered. Their like Ad banners, except AdBlock plus doesn't automatically block them. ];)

If anything I like Virmir's Sig, if a Signature picture is necessary, something small and unobtrusive, yet there if you wanna see it.

Ah, very true. I've seen forums that get VERY cluttered with that. There should be a function where only the most recent post of a person shows their siggie however.

edit: and  by 'should' I don't mean it would be a good idea, I mean I think it exists though I'm not sure if CF actually has it or anything.

Fixed your icon as requested Pontos, and added the appropriate corresponding expression.

To our lord, I humbly present to you my gift:

Hehe ya, you were a help in making Virmir's.


Just a note, this is suppose to be a twin Icon with Kais. Although cats can never be compared with foxes.

Hey!... You added this in after I left! Sneaky fox ]:P and no they can't! Thats because cats are MORE AWESOME than foxes ];)

(what looks better, with the dark sides together? or the Glowy sides together?)

O_o <---- That's both my expression now and on that icon

I have to agree that it looks hilarious with that face |:P

Now can you please take it out >_>
Also, to make it look less Krilin-esque (As Kai said) you can try making my headfur more noticeable, without being actual human hair. And the ears look a bit big now, so try fixing that.

Thanks a lot, and i wonder why there are so many Dragon Ball hints with my icon XD (From the scouter to Krilin)


Virmir's avatar looks awesome, although a bit too serious for his cartoonish being |:P
And Kai, i think they look better with the dark sides together
