It looks good man. Try shrinking it a bit though because it stretches the screen and forces people to scroll left to right to read your posts. #Turn-l

Good point KRG! I did not notice that.
All signature pics should not be so big as to cause some to scroll.

450 pixels wide is a good base line.

i think i found what did it, did you save it as a jpg? it probbbly degraded the color due to the compression, as i found it did with this img below, changing the hue a bit (red was changed to 65, but this is very low jpg compression)

Pond, your sig is quite long as well. Creates scrolling in posts.

1 bazijillion X 1 bazijillion

You don't have to scroll left to right to see the words in the posts? You must have your res turned way up eh? It only happens to me when a signature is long enough to make the posts "stretch out". Many people have the same prob.

(get with BBF for the definition of a bazijillion)

Must be one of those 800 x 600 freaks! LOL

Hey, POND!!!, that VS is awesome!

btw, I never have a problem when I save as jpg.

I suggest using the HTML hex code... you can't go wrong there.
