FrankenFan's Buffy and Angel Banners

[FrankenFan]

I would love to add those banners to my signature... however, that would make my signature over 400 characters. Dang it!!!

Unfortunately,

THE LAWGIVER'S WORDS CANNOT BE EDITED!

Well, you're already in violation of the Darklord's decree of no more than 3 lines of text. But, you could restructure your sig to 3 lines, like this:

"Beware the beast man for he is the devil's pawn. Alone among God's primates, he kills for sport or lust or greed.
Yea, he will murder his brother to possess his brother's land. Let him not breed in great numbers for he will make a desert of his home... and yours.
Shun him. Drive him back into his jungle lair. For he is the harbinger of death." 29th Scroll, 6th Verse

Then add the banner and you're golden!

Yeah, I've been a bad monkey!

At least the font size is small!

Yeah, I've monkeyed around with the sig for awhile now (including using your suggestion) and I still get the "over 400 characters" prompt. Oh well... thanks for the help.

 

[Protozaius]

Okay... after some SERIOUS monkeying around (and gentle editing) I'm now able to accomodate that wonderful Buffy/Angelbanner... and still give the Great Lawgiver his due.

I don't mean to complicate things further for you, but you could always convert the text into a GIF file, and have room for the complete text, while still staying within the guidelines (and character limits), like this:

 

[Darklord Dave]

Converting it into a gif really isn't in the spirit of the rules though. I just want to prevent threads like we see at other boards that are nothing but sig.

But I'll make this one ruling - the FF "Bring Back...Banners" DO NOT count towards your sig limits.

There - I've done my part...

 

[Protozaius]

Converting it into a gif really isn't in the spirit of the rules though.

That's okay... it also really isn't the realm of my capabilities.

In other words, I don't know how.

Yeah, I kind of thought that, but I figured you would say something if it was too far over the line.

I like the exemption of the "Bring Back..." mini-banners, though. It is much appreciated.

Market analysts predict that revenues from $tar War$ Ca$h will sustain $ide$how Collectibe$ well into the future and provide a solid bedrock of financial growth and long-term security.

Take a look at the proposed site of $ide$how'$ new headquarters:

I was 10 when I first saw "A New Hope" at the theater and I've developed other interests since. However, I always thought it would hold a special place in my heart. But I gotta tell you, I'm really starting to hate Star Wars!

Although my interests are no longer with the 12" lines, I still bought all of the Angel and Buffy figures and I will support the cause.

 

[creecher]

Alrighty then.

FrankenFan, your banners brought tears to my eyes. I feel such a sense of loss not being able to see some of the wonderful Buffy and Angel characters
created. I wonder is there some sort of petition we could make that we could send to SS head office begging them to reconsider? I would be more than willing to support such a petition.
I still would love an Anya, Judge, The Trio, etc. There are so many that could be made yet.

Thank you for all of your hard work making those banners.

Petitions DON'T work. They didn't work for Planet of the Apes, Highlander, Universal Monsters.... I highly doubt they would have any effect on the power$ that be regarding Buffy. I don't know about the rest of you or even how many others it pertains to, but each of those lines ending saddened me. I collect[ed] Universal Monsters, Twilight Zone, Hogan's Heroes, Planet of the Apes, Highlander, Buffy, Angel, Bond....
The Darklord is correct about one thing. $ide$how is in it as a business, for the money. I am doubting whether they ever gave a rats ass about the collector in the first place. Or perhaps it was just easier to run the business and get our money by pretending to be collectors at heart themselves.
The good news for me is there ARE other companies still delivering 1:6 grails unto the collectors.

And, thank you, dr2red, for showing your support of the line by adding the Buffy banner to your sig!

You're right, Ironman... we should petition Sideshow to listen or read our petitions!

Shhhhhhh!!!! Don't let the secret out!!!

I've yet to see ANY company deliver ANY of MY 1:6 grails. Sideshow was the only game in town for me.

 

[Ironman1188]

Well, PZ, you know how diverse my collecting tatses run. I don't know what YOUR grails are, BUT....
I am LOVING the Predators and Aliens, I have all the Lost in Space figures issued so far [something as a kid I could only dream about], all the classic Battlestar Galactica figures [and doubles]....

 

[Darklord Dave]

Sideshow is about far, far more than 1/6 now - like any business, whether they are fans or not, they have to make product that more people will buy. That just doesn't happen to be 1/6 figures right now.

Meet Dave >
And if they don't make a product, people can't buy it.
And, FrankenFan, I have tried several times to add one [several different] of your banners to show my support, but apparently they do count against the total signature size because I keep getting a message that my sig is too big.

The problem seems to be the width of the PotA banner. I resized it to 500 pixels wide, and was able to add a Buffy/Angel banner to your current sig.

Here's the resized PotA banner:

Hope this helps, and, thank you for your support!

Thanks FF!!
