Ok, well this afternoon, in the short time after i posted on my "Christmas Come Early" topic, i suddenly became very unhappy, dont know why but it sometimes happens, so i thought i would take my mind off it by making a whole bunch of Christmas cards, and i made a few successful ones, and by accident i made the top layer of the card (which was set to difference) and it came up with an effect completely different to what i had started off with, and the work made me think about how many fights, scraps an bad rugby games i had this autumn, and my friend said to me what was happening to me was the "autumn war", which he said was some sort of rut people get stuck in in the autumn months, and well to cut a long story short, i decided to make a sig out of what my mistake created. [attachment=2942:attachment] Any CnC is welcome as always, and im more worried about you enjoying the sig tbh, lol /biggrin.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':D\' />

Wow this looks great! The tree sort of gets lost in the background though... I\'m not sure how that could be fixed. It looks really neat, though! Good job! /biggrin.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':D\' />

But I like the way the tree looks against the background; I guess that\'s just because I sort of prefer darker pictures. It almost does look like a warzone; good job Gadget /biggrin.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':D\' />

Upload it somewhere, then use [img]http://www.example.com/myimage.jpg[/img] in your signature edit page.

You should be able to upload an image through your profile. Go to \"My Controls\" and partway down the main body there should be an option to upload an image, you can then put the link to that image in your signature.

Great work Gadg, sorry IVe not seen you on MSN for a while but my laptop is playing silly buggers with me, has been since before xmas and just can not be bothered to sort it at the moment, hence not being here on the forums either. But back to the piece, yeah looks great. The oranges and yellow's give a very moody, almost dreamy state to the image and the silhoutes help that nicely. I think maybe the text could be improved, possibly with a better font. And as for your autumn war that you described, I beleive it maybe SAD syndrome which people are often affected by autmn and winter months where there is less light. This can make people deepressed and down. You can get light boxes which can be used to supliment the lack of sun light. Great peice though bro, keep it up /bigwink.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\';)\' />
