Can't make reversed text sig.

[Slickone]

Why, when I try to add code to my sig to make reversed/inverse text, just as others here are using, it doesn't work and shows as raw code?

Code I'm using:

<font color=white style="background-color: 3E3E3E;">TEXT HERE</b></font ft>

Try the [[/b]H]Your Text Here[[/b]/H] tags.

Like this

You can't use HTML directly in the forums.

Oh. When you view the page source though, it's turned into HTML and coded exactly like I was trying. And with that extra HTML code, I must not have enough room in my sig (though it seems like I should). Grr.

It works!!!

No, those tages only get changed in th HTML when the page loads. It gets stored as the tags in your sig.

For instance, take a look at how ":[/b])" transtales in to html, and then try to see how many of them you can fit in your sig.

Your sig string does not store any html. [[/b]h][[/b]/h] only takes up seven characters, not however many the html interpretation uses.

It should fit then. Oh well. Tired of fooling with it. Damn thing's driving me nuts. Maybe they'll up the sig limit some day.
