I want to say thanks to Graham (My Online Team) for posting instructions in Jersey Joe's (team New Jersey USA) thread "Important Message" on how to add a signature with a link to a teams page.
----------------------------------------It was straight forward and easy - if I can do it - anyone can. Now does anyone know how can you make the type font both bold face and in color? |

Hi Graham -
----------------------------------------Thanks for showing me how to create such a bold and colorful forum signature. I had to alter it somewhat as there apparently is a maximum number of characters that it can contain and when I added the flags, then did a preview with all the color changes it was too big and it was getting truncated. Here's the code for what I finally was able to get accepted, of course with all { } changed to [ ]. {b}{color=red}ski1939 {/color}{color=blue}(team USMC) {/color} {/b} {**==}{url=http://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/team/viewTeamInfo.do?teamId=VD5RSMBR9N1}{b}{color=red} Click here to join{/color}{color=blue} team USMC {/color} {/b} {/url} {**==} Again my thanks to you and your "My Online Team" help and support - it's really appreciated. |

Hi Graham -
----------------------------------------Wow that looks great, and yes, I would like to know how to do it, please post the code. I like my current signature block that you showed me how to do, it really stands out. Did you notice US Navy's MadCow is using a similar one? However, if there is no restriction on how many times a signature block can be changed, maybe I could rotate between the two of them. Also I was thinking that I might like to use it on my teams statistics page (if I can find out how to do it), similar to what team "Wisconsin" has done to display their state flag on their team's statistics page http://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/team/viewTeamInfo.do?teamId=0B5RSMBR9N1 Again, thanks for your help, it is really appreciated and keep folding those proteins. |

Hi Graham - thanks for showing me the code to set this logo up in my signature block.
----------------------------------------ski1939 ![]() ![]() Click This to Join > Team USMC In thread http://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/forums/wcg/viewthread?thread=1625 on Feb 13, 2005 at 3:27:58 AM you indicated that Billy Bob, another member of your great group "My Online Team" had set up at his own expense several domains in support of WCG. As you suggested in that post, I sent him an email asking if he would redirect my groups statistics page URL so I can take advantage of the shorter URL. Btw - I was wondering what are your thoughts about the issue raised by jujaga on Feb 12, 2005 at 11:42:19 PM in thread http://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/forums/wcg/viewthread?thread=1857 concerning using graphics that maybe not be in the public domain and involving copyright infringement issues Again, I want to express my appreciation to you and all the other members of "My Online Team" that have contributed so much to this worthy humanitarian effort. ![]() |

![]() I would hardly think that the USMC are going to sue you for using their logo for such a noble and philanthropic cause as this Usually people only get upset when their logo is used for comercial profit If I thought for one minute that it would get you into trouble I would never have posted it for you So dont worry go ahead and use it mate PS They should be paying you for advertising for them [grin] Semper Fi Semper Fidelis is a Latin motto translating to "always faithful". It is the motto of: Plymouth Argyle, and the song is played as the team enters the pitch before the start of the game. The City of Exeter, in Devon, England; the motto signifies the city's loyalty to the English Crown, and was suggested by Elizabeth I in a letter of 1588 to "The Citizens of Exeter", in recognition of a gift of money towards the fleet that defeated the Spanish Armada. The Galician city of Leopolis (now L'viv in Ukraine); the words were first used in 1658 by Pope Alexander VII recognizing the city's key role in defending Europe from a Muslim invasion; in the same year the Sejm of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth passed the Semper fidelis poloniae Act (which is how most people understand it). Curiously, as well as having the same motto, both Exeter and Leopolis have a three-turreted castle on their coats of arms (see illustrations), but this is apparently no more than a coincidence. Today in Poland the phrase is used mainly in connection with the Polish-Ukranian skirmishes after the fall of Austro-Hungary, and more particularly to the Polish-Bolshevik war. In Ukraine it is much less used, and refers to the survival of the Ukrainian Church through the period of Soviet persecution. In the 1990s the words along with Mortui sunt ut liberi vivamus (Latin for They died for us to live free) were a subject of a Polish-Ukrainian controversy regarding the restoration of a Polish military cemetery desecrated by the Soviets in L'viv. HMS Exeter, a Royal Navy warship named after the City of Exeter. The United States Marine Corps, the amphibious infantry element of the United States Navy, who often reduce it to Semper Fi; the motto signifies the dedication that individual Marines are expected to have to "The Corps" and to their fellow fighting men and women, for the rest of their days and beyond. Semper Fidelis is the title of the official march of the United States Marine Corps, composed by John Phillip Sousa in 1889. Sousa was director of the United States Marine Corp Band when a replacement for Hail to the Chief was requested, but later rejected. Sousa considered it to be his "most musical" march. For all those reading this thread that do not know what it means PS Ski1939 You can also use &offset= plus the post number and point right to a particular post in a thread Your Friend (This post has been edited for profanity - nelsoc) [Edit 4 times, last edit by Former Member at Jun 21, 2005 11:59:43 AM] |
