Another newbie q I guess, but I was wondering how people put their "order statuses" in their signature, as well as how they "blur" out the order information?

Not really important, just curious. ?

I just used a Print Screen, and then copied and pasted it to paint, where I resized it. I then used the line tool to black out some of my # (I think people who blur use photoshop or have some other way of doing so). I then used photoshack.us to put my small sig on the web and then updated my profile.

Hope I helped )

Is photoshop free? I can really see the quality difference between yours and mine, yours being 100% better...

Very Nice RECEIVED

Oh thanks. Unfortunately, it's not free. But there are other things out there that you can use besides adobe photoshop. Maybe the jasc paintshop would work. They have free trial downloads. I think the site is www.jasc.com if not, than just search for jasc software on google. P

Definately not free. It's from Adobe and the current version is PhotoShop CS. Get it here http//www.adobe.com/products/photoshop/main.html

Yeah, I think you can download a trial version of that too.

Yes, you can...from the site I provided. I'm not sure if you can save the file but if you'd really like to use it for your sig just make the image and print screen )

You haven't played with it much have you? Because you always tell me you aren't very good at stuff like that.

Yes, you're right. I don't have much time to play with it. Maybe sometime soon.

Any screencap app will do, and then just crop it to the status "box". I have PS and Paintshop, but there's no need to use them. I just use the Mircosoft Photo Editor that comes with Office, and use smudge. Then use Photobucket to host.

Pretty easy.

J4320, it's "received", not "recieved". Sorry for being the little editor today.

I fixed it. I knew that. I kept it in mind to put it "received" and not "recieved".... Oh well...

Yes, but how do you actually make the image show up as your signature? my html is not enabled...

"\Yes, but how do you actually make the image show up as your signature? my html is not enabled../"

it's phpBB code you write http//imageurl.com [" alt=""/img]

you can use photobucket as an image hosting.

I just made my avy. Like it? I like how it shadows. It was pretty easy too. I took that shot with my camera phone.

What is the reasoning behind blocking your order number?

People can sometimes track your shipment with info like that, so it's recommended to remove info like that from the image.
