As my experience making my own signature before i just copy some bbcodes from old signature codes but some of them is not working in any rank.
I tried put some codes in member account but result error but if i put it in full member to high its working..
I think the only way that you can do to make a signature is to collect the old signature from previous or old signature campaign thread..
And use this to change the collors of your signature http://absitomen.com/index.php?topic=331.0

I hope it helps..

I suppose just coloring it a dark color would stand out much more than plain text. But i'd need to be able to draw a logo as well.

I don't know whether this one or not. But try this http://truben.no/table/ (I never tried this. But once, someone suggested this one)

To give a different answer, think of it as a lego tiles, when you want to create an image, all you do is to add each block to the next one, but with the respective color as intended. Patience is the key into achieving the desired logos for signatures. If your looking for a shortcut, then there's non (AFAIK). You have to do it yourself and keep on previewing it and see if you get it right. Having a basic html knowledge would certainly help you into making good signatures together with the help of photoshop to choose the appropriate colors.

But thats not actually helping, you're just rehashing what other said. I need said ressource that let me build a sig by picking "blocks" and putting them together. A tool that allow me to do something like the Bit-x logo by picking shapes and lego blocking them together is what i need.

I just don't have to time to check 30 different ressource to see if one of them can do it.

To be clearer, i want to draw the EthOS logo;

After that, make the ressources available in my sig right now a bit more graphical, but really, just need the logo, to draw the eye.

Plain text is meh. Smiley

Like I said before, you need to know some basic html coding. Here's a resource for the shapes: http://www.virtualteen.org/forums/showthread.php?t=28157

Where is my ring of blades...

I think it's also based on a trial error like the other said. I have tried making my own signature and you just need to try to create an image with the multiple colors you can use. It's like building blocks, once you have an idea what the signature looks like then you will know where to place what.
On the logo part, are you talking about pngs or logos inside the sig? If it's a png I use photoshop cs6 on editing  logos. Vector image are great if you want clear details. There are instructions on google where you can follow on how to create a dfferent shape using the pen tool, you should be able to create what exactly you want with that. You just need to familiarize the use of every tool so creating would be much easier.

there definitely are tools to make a custom signature. maybe some of the signatures are by hand with trial and error but creating some of them this way is just impossible. look at second comment for example, making that circle for bit-x signature is not possible by hand if you don't want to spend 5 hours on it.

I don't think the code is complicated either

Nope, you can check how the sig's BB code looks but it is trial and error most of the time

Is that so? Because some people opened contest for Sigs and people started postings tons of sigs, each person, within very little time. There's no way they were done "by hand". I've already found some bbcode forum signature maker but the one i found was a bit finicky.

There's probably a "superior option" out there to draw logos and such.
I've only seen the actually made up sigs after the first day or so. Which ones are you talking about? The first other sigs are ones copied from previous discontinued signature campaign

BBCode is not innate to Bitcointalk. I found a decent editor, but i'm not sure how to draw logos. Would be nice if someone had some input on those.
