Reduce Font Size - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

Double D · 07-06-2003, 11:30 PM

I would like to reduce the font size of my profile signature.
How do I make the font size of my sig smaller than the font (I think it's *1*) of my posts?

I've tried reading up on vB code but I'm still pretty hopeless at tech stuff.

Help, please?

Thanks!

hm, on my sig, i use [*size=1][/size*]
without the asterisks..

and it's a bit smaller than the standard 'post' font.

how to get it even smaller?

i dunno...

size=0 ?

/me goes test...

tested...0 seems to be the same as 1.

makes sense that 1 is the smallest. duh

Thanks SiN, for trying to help. I want my font to be about the size of your *girlie geek* sig. How did you do that? Because when I use font size 1, it looks just like the rest of the post.

hm. i dunno why yours is being weird ..

lemme see if i can get the exact contents of my sig so you can see..

ok, the code tag does not work, but it's like this -

[size=1*][*color=FF99CC]- + - ° GiRLie GeeK ° - + - ° PoRN FReaK ° - + -

01110010011011110110111101110100001000000110110101100101[/color*][/size*]

without asterisks..

maybe, since you've got some color in yours, it's just a nesting problem?

if you want the whole of the text to be small, make sure you put the 'size=1' at the very beginning, and then the '/size' at the very end.

just like with html, you need to make sure things are nested right or it wont work.

hope this helps finally

normal - test
test2

html tags still work around here... just try a few different settings...

Yea!!!! Thanks guys!!! (it worked).

umm can you make your sig shorter anyways? it's still very long vertically

Double D · 07-07-2003, 02:33 PM

Sure, I'll take care of it tonite

.

In non-techie terms, is there a maxium length that is preferred, just so I get it right the first time? Thanks!

Halx · 07-07-2003, 02:48 PM

I think six lines is more than enough for a sig...

Double D · 07-07-2003, 02:54 PM

Gotcha, will do. Thanks again.
