Best I can get to is the following code but nothing shows up still

If you don’t do PGP, you don’t do crypto!
Does anyone know any trick for backspacing, or otherwise superimposing text on text?  A reliable BBcode trick would be good; but ultimately, that relies on the underlying capabilities of HTML without CSS styling tricks.  A Unicode trick would work, if it actually works.

As a Unix terminal lover, I am sad^H^H^Hsomehow unsurprised that this old-fashioned ASCII tty trick doesn’t work (colours are off; it is only an example):

Code: (/bin/sh)
echo $'[tt][color=green]0[/color]\u0008[color=orange]\u221e[/color][/tt]' >> infsig.txt

Result:

Quote
0

The forum actually seems to emit a U+0008 back to me; but the effect is not displayed in my browser.  I guess that this is an HTML issue, not a forum or BBcode issue.  The WHATWG HTML5 standard categorizes U+0008 as a C0 control that it is does not deem to be ASCII whitespace; but I cannot so easily find the exact specification of HTML5 C0 control handling in (I guess here) HTML mode.  The W3 has a table which says that C0 controls U+0001U+0008 are allowed in HTML5 text/html, “not allowed in any way” in XML 1.0, and “allowed only as a character reference” in XML 1.1.  Anyway, browser behaviour is what matters here; and if it doesn’t work in my browser, it will probably break in others’ browsers.


Thanks in advance for any tips for my quest to build a simple, aesthetically pleasing new signature.

This is a very good thread to learn to design signatures which is some skill I've always liked and wondered how it's done, good work op, hope you update the thread again soon

Did something change with the sigs? I notice a lot of warped sigs that used to look pretty cool.

Through this tutorial, I made my own tribute signature for celebrating our Independence Day here in Philippines. I also made own version of tutorial about BBcodes because of this masterpiece. Thanks @roslinpl!

I'm still looking forward to tutorial about the logo, I don't have enough skill to create it manually, any suggestions?

Why not to try your ASCII blocks in here, by previewing your post? For me it works the best.

Do you design your blocks just straight in the reply box or do you at least use notepad? No matter what I do they just look broken. I made a grid of 0s in note++, tested this M design there, replaced the 0 with spaces and then placed it here. Looks like cat vomit. Pasted it in notepad and it looks kinda different. I bet that would also be the case had it been made first in note pad instead. Every time I'm in the forum it's the only thing I've been doing. Paste, update, refresh.  Grin

Looks like I just can't get this right. Kudos to your design skills, this thing ain't easy and that's just the blocks, no codes yet.

As per Op you have to insert it into a quote and actually op have provided a template for the signature designs. And as per op mate using ASICS images is just the best thing to use for your signature designs as they will look good in the newest browser and you can also always hit the preview button to check if it is already looking what you've wanted

Indeed Smiley

I design straight in the reply box.

Nowadays I draw with 2px monospace ASCII characters, so basically my starting template looks like:

Do you guys like use any tools for designing the sigs? I'm just starting with blocks and I'll try them in Notepad or Note++ and when they get to the forum they'd be all jumbled.

I tried setting the size to both 2pt and 2px but they still seem to look the same.

Well it will look same to you since you are just trying basic. The only difference you will see is the size but let me tell you that there is more to it. "pt" is actually cool to go with if you are trying to make something basic figure like take this for example

Basic and easily made using "pt"



"px" basically is smaller in comparison to "pt" and so it helps you to make much more complicated figures accurately but this usually takes time (if you are not using some sort of generators) and in addition to that takes up too much characters. So eventually it leaves you with less characters for making the rest of the signature design.

Thanks for the tips. That last sig looks pretty complicated. Don't know how many hours I'd need to learn to make that.

Seems the spacing also really matters. I installed Note++ and tried to separate stuff to make it easier to find unpaired tags but the results are different than when it's just a jumbled mess, LOL.

Also noticed these dots I have for sigs looked different now that I opened the forum in Edge instead of Chrome.

I'm inching like a worm through this tutorial. So far I've tried making a 4x4 square using block. I tried setting the size to both 2pt and 2px but they still seem to look the same.

Also BTW thanks for posting this. Been wanting to try this for a long time and read this thread before. Finally able to muster enough willpower to get started.

Hello,

forum user Meowth05 did another translation of this thread in the Local> Pilipinas section.

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/alamin-mga-aralln-at-tutorial-sa-bbcode-mga-tutorial-video-5136214

The moderators removed his topic once, hence my request to forum moderators to set the same rules for local sections,
other translations have not been removed, I request to keep the same rules for the various local sections.

Thank you.
