Is there an Omnimaga banner I can put in my sig like the UTI one that I currently have?
-
I had the same question a while ago, but it seemed there isn't one ]:
-
Steps to getting the Omnimaga Banner
1:Move your mouse into the FORUMS button
2:Move it a little bit higher
3:Right click
4:Save as
5:Enjoy all the moderators yelling at your oversized banner!
JK, but i don't think there is one, you could rescale the big one at the top to be smaller, but it wouldn't be the same :(
-
A long while ago, KermMartian did several on Cemetech for various sites, but they're gone I think. Some people might still have them in their sigs, though, at various forums. You would just need to search carefully
EDIT: Ok, Wesley on MC forums had it in his sig (I have no clue why, though, considering he never posted here):
(http://www.cemetech.net/img/sigs/omnimemberbar.png)
There were also some for staff, managers and admins, as well as retired staff and admins before, but i don't know the URL anymore. Also the titles are outdated, since staff are now coders of tomorrow and managers no longer exists (since the group merged with staff)

There's also TI-Freakware and TIcalc.org, there, and it's quite easy on UTI to find Cemetech and Door CS.

I think they're from about 3 years ago. Notice the old TI-Freakware logo.

I wonder how people make these... anyway, i would recommend hosting them on your own space in case they would go down for any reason :P
-
There are sites for making these [:
you can change options as the transparation of the shiny-thing and the text and images
this is one grabbed of the internet: http://designer.userbars.com/
Don't know how to use it tho' O.o I guess it ain't too hard after a while, when you are used to it.
We could make a winter competition for a new banner ::) Hint Hint :P
(now I said this, I want to be in the judge-team :P)
-
il try making a new banner if ou all want itll help me with my gimp skillz :P
-
Hmm, that's an interesting site. NF, I like the contest idea, and I'm probably going to make a few userbars now.
-
;D It has been a while since the platform contest so yeah, good time for a small one.
-
ok, here is what I've done so far while I've played around with this

über O:
-
yeah I was playing around with the animated layer, I'm also working on another that has a white outline on the Omnimaga on the side.
I might make one with GIMP and make it have a bunch of animations from some of our games :P
-
nice
now i need to learn how to do that ..jk but if there is a contest count me in its good to learn XD
-

also search here (http://future_history.freehostia.com/Images/Userbars) if you want to see any new ones I made, and then you can host it for yourself if you want to use it (doesn't seem to work if I try to use it)
-
Wolfenstein 83 User :P :P :P

Lol, ok I'll get that done as soon as I can

Wow, I check back half a day later and find a lot of interest. :)
Eeems, those are awesome.

-
What about anti-loli banner? :P
-
Lol, I could :p when I get on a computer again :p
-
I like the changes you made to the SE one. I can't wait to change my sig! ;D
Edit: How do you like my sig now? :)
*ztrumpet is happy*
-
Thanks :)
it looks great!
-
I kind of like it, altough the Omnimaga logo in it is a bit hard to see :(
-
True, so I changed it to the one I meant to put there. :D
-
Aaah ok ^^
-
oops the banner I made for Geno has the wrong text on it...anybody know where that picture was again?
-
No clue, altough I suspect it must be on his webspace (plank.taricorp.net/imgs or something)
-
ah ok, well I'll ask him when I can
-
Eeems, Your sig changed! :o The banner in the middle...
-
yes it automatically updates from my twitter account :P
if you want I can make one for you from that, and if I do some digging I could probably be able to link it to anything :D
-
Cool.
No, I don't update Twitter or anything so it would be pointless. :)
-
lol, ok. it will also update from any RSS feed, so it can also update from any site that has one, for example it can update from Omnimaga's RSS
-
What's RSS?
-
ummm, its kind of like a news feed...so like when new topics/posts are posted it shows up in the feed....search it on Wikipedia...they give better descriptions then I do
-
Ticalc had one IIRC, idk if it's still up. Omnimaga RSS feeds came with SMF by default, if I remember, but there are mods to improve them.
I personally hardly ever update my Facebook, though, and I don't have a twitter account, so it would be kinda pointless for me to get such userbar
-
Yeah, I follow both ticalc, and omnimaga's rss. Ah, ok, unless you want an omnimaga rss userbar :p
-
/me moves topic to Miscellaneous Discussion
oh sheitz, don't have the permission :p
-
I could always split it, tho :P
-
Well, it IS a living project to make a news-site, no? =]
-
Lol true, but yeah we got off topic XD
-
Did I put this in the right place to start with?
-
yeah you did
-
Cool. :)
-
oh yeah, right, it was ztrumpet who asked for a banner D:
I was already thinking, why th did Eeems suddenly make a lot of userbars xd
-
He got into the sprit, I guess...
-
lol, I did :P
its fun making userbars!
-
i want my Wolf83 user bar D:<
lolz, no hurry :p
-
What font are you using for those?
-
umm, the standard one that the thing uses, so I don't actually know
-
Oh, where did you make them then? I thought you made them in a program on the comp.
-
http://designer.userbars.com/
-
Oh ok, thanks.
-
np, have fun!
-
Quick question though, how do you add them to your sig? Do you have to host them on a site or is there a way to just upload them from the comp?
-
you need to host them in photobucket, or attach them in one of your post below, on the forums. They have to be png, gif, jpg. Then in your sig, do

-
Thank you DJ :)

*Bump*
Hey, Eeems. :) I just got back and received this message:
Hey,
I was forced to remove one of the Omnimaga userbar from your forum signature (the one with the 83+SE), because it slowed down the forums way too much (and caused OmnomIRC to not load until we click Load link or press ESC). It seems to be on an extremely slow/failing Imageshack server. You may need to upload it elsewhere. Sorry for the inconveniences :(
So, Eeems, is there a better place to link it from other than:
http://img134.imageshack.us/img134/2044/ubda5797.gif
Thanks Eeems! Oh, and to everyone else this topic has a few variations of Omnimaga userbars. Enjoy! :D
-
Yeah this imgshack server is really crappy. It slowed everything down and I had to ask everyone to get rid of any images that used it.
-
Hmm, is the SAD one okay?
http://img695.imageshack.us/img695/7554/ubd1197.png
-
Seems like so. The server on which it is seems stable.
-
Ok, I'm going to host some of the ones on omni itself so you can still use them :)
-
That would be cool ^^
-
ok, here it is! http://omnimaga.org/images/userbars/84+se_sig.gif
I'll probably upload more later
-
cool! thanks :D
-

Wait, really? I didn't know...
Here's one I just made a few days ago: http://img641.imageshack.us/img641/2818/991277893055.png
I can't even see it, since ImageShack is blocked here, but I think it says "Omnimaga User" at the right; can anyone tell me what it actually says?
EDIT: By the way, I had been thinking of moving all of my userbars out of ImageShack into some other host, but I can't do that since I can't access them in the first place. Can anyone please download the images and send them to me?
-
Wait. ImageShack is a banned image host here? I currently have my images hosted there. I didn't know it was causing slow-down for the site. (or am I misunderstanding something?)
If I can confirm that it's causing some technical issues, I can move my sig images over to another host.
-
Wait. ImageShack is a banned image host here?
Yes, as there "here" being refereed to is China (where Deep Thought is atm). As for Omni, they are fine, except for that one server in particular. :)
Thanks Eeems! ;D
-
Yeah it's just that one service that was blocked, the rest are fine, although if they start slowing down I'll have to get them over here too.
-
Wait. ImageShack is a banned image host here?
Just Server #134, since it seems to be a recurrent problem with this server since the past 6 months (and has been down for weeks by now)
