Yay First Post ^_^ Now i have been trying to create a good ID for myself like good signiture Good Avatar.

NOW FOR A GIANT ANNOYING RANT!

So it first started with the activation email, i didnt know u had to because it didnt tell you, so i was ripping my hair out trying to set things up on my profile. I finaly work that out yay for me.

next thing

The Avatar is way to small i mean come on, 80 by 80, 100 by 100 be perfect but that little bit lower is hard to come accross.
AHHHG! with a campital A.
So you have to resize it.

Next thing

I was looking around trying to find a resizer for converting Gifs. I found plenty but when u rezise it its stop the Gif all together and makes it not move.
hey but look at the bright side its smaller /cry.
(if you got any programes to recomand im all ears :) )

Signiture

I havnt done this yet mainly because im a male, and most anime is Girls so i wanted a custom made male awesome looking picture to edit and make a signiture but of course its hard to find awesome male anime.

RANT OVER

Haha but i will enjoy, being in the cumminity of awesome people. mainly because ANIME ROOOOCKS!

it used to be 50x50. Seeing some of the things Levon can do with an 80x80 avatar, I don't think the dimensions of the avatar need to be enlarged. I think the file size could be enlarged, perhaps.

There are no image sigs on AN. This is a wonderful decision on the part of the site admins, and I hope it continues. There's nothing I loathe quite so much as an image sig.

What a good way to introduce yourself. An admittedly giant, annoying rant that no one cares about in the first post. :thumbsup:

It is a matter of personal taste, but I personally feel that signature images lower the quality of any messageboard to that of a pop artist fan website, also known as the bottom of the barrel. Even worse than signature images are animated signature images. Animenation is by far the least obnoxious anime forum I've ever visited, and it is in part because of the smaller avatars and lack of signature images, making threads easy to read.

As Desslock said, we don't allow images in signatures, and signatures must be no more than 6 lines tall (using a normal font size).

Yeah i've found that sights with sig images have alot of obnoxious people, ever tried posting on a comment on the above persons sig thread, you could write something rivaling shakespear in you sig and the best you get is "Duh you has no pic 3/10"

Welcome.

Before we begin, may I remind you that here at the Animenation Forums you may experience a slight burning sensation for the first few...hundred...posts you make, which only increases in magnitude the more you resist (resistance is futile) and certainly the more you begin your posts with long Ridiculous Rants of an equally Ridiculous Subject Matter*.

And no, before you ask, whatever questionable activities in Singapore you wish to deny are, most definitely, not at fault for this particular burning, so a visit to your local free clinic is not necessary. Please note, however, that tingling in your ears from the many colorful suggestions given by seasoned (and therefore rude) members here at the Animenation Forums should be looked after.

Our Lovely FAQ suggests you first stick your head into a hot oven, poke a fork at the nearest electrical outlet, and then immediately proceed to play with the pretty blue water in your toilet bowl. All tingling should dissipate upon completion.

This of course is paraphrasing.


Should you find yourself in need of assistance, do not hesitate to scream. Someone in RED will almost certainly stop and stare at you. If you scream loud enough perhaps we will also take a picture to preserve the memory for later staring. Any and all pictures we take are subject to be laughed at, discussed, crumpled, smoothed straight as best as possible, laughed at again, filed, lost, found, lost again, and then buried in that little trash bin of internet called ‘Archives’.


If you have any questions, that’s really a shame.


I am a proud member of the Welcoming Committee. We don't have muffins and so you can't, either.

*Ridiculous Rants of an equally Ridiculous Subject Matter: It is said that once a member starts posting Ridiculous Rants of an equally Ridiculous Subject Matter, their time as a member is cut in half. This doubles once they start defending their Rant by creating tangent Rants to distract from the initial one. These are called Red Herring Rants. Their fate is then crippled another quarter as mouths slack and those Red Herring Rants branch into Rambles of Ridiculous Nature.

You see, not many know that Rambles of a Ridiculous Nature are much more deadly than the initial Ridiculous Rant that begins them, or the several Red Herrings that later accompany, expressing all the tedious and tiresome reasons why idiots do not survive online forums. They hardly have any ground in reality and often times only blame others for being wrong, rather than prove why they are, in fact, right. The more Rambles gain momentum, the less they have to do with the topic at hand. And the longer Rambles are allowed to continue, the higher the chance of their inevitable degeneration into the most dreadful thing on the internets:

e-Penis-itis.

By all means never sink so far as to believe your e-Penis is larger or more impressive than anyone else’s. Because it’s not, we said so. And even if by some odd stroke of injustice it was larger, there are no women on the internet anyway and flailing such things about only makes you look gay.

Egos are best left where they belong – in the classroom, in your boss’s office, or down at your local supermarket where your ***** fest over a ten cent price discrepancy makes you God for the Day.

After all, chances are you’re ugly in real life anyway.

Shiroyuki if you ever posted something like that on an intro thread that i made, I would look at that wall of text and say simply...

The remedy to that is found in the fourth paragraph, if and when you count 'Welcome' as a paragraph, of said wall of text.

Enjoy.

Wow, that was amazing Shiroiyuki...I wish I would have been enlightened like that when I joined AN.
