Well having been fascinated by Bitcoin for the past couple of years and had a Bitcoin Forum account for some while now, I thought it was high time I got more involved and tried to get to grips with how this forum works...
Going through my profile settings I have been somewhat perplexed as to how to create a signature/add an avatar and was delighted to find the information posted in this thread. Thank you very much!
As a newbie here with very little spare time, is it unrealistic that I can create a decent signature myself? I like to think that I am quite tech savvy but have no coding experience whatsoever. Whilst the tutorial re. 'How to make bitcointalk signatures' would suggest that it can be fairly simple and I should 'have a go', some of the other contributors lead me to believe that you really need to immerse yourself in this task and, even then, it could take someone with years of BBC experience several hours (which I don't have) to create a decent signature. Perhaps I should be paying someone to create one for me? Then again maybe that is a bit lame! Do I even need a signature?
I was just about to post this and then noticed that it looks like the more involved in the forum one becomes, the greater the ranking one achieves and the higher ones rank, the more characters one is granted to create a signature - would that be correct? Apologies if I should really be aware of this already - I guess I should be checking out some newbie guidelines!
