Status: offline 		Hi there,

I wasn't sure where to ask this (I checked the Artwork thread but it appears, I think, just to ask for model designs, etc) but I would like a signature like what alot of other players have got. However, I have no clue how to create one and I do feel a bit cheeky me asking this but would anyone here be able to help me out?

I am going to be sticking around the WITP forums and I want to become part of the community.

My idea was, well, basically I am an Imperial Japanese Army Fanboy, I'll admit that. I wanted something with Japanese soldiers on (but colourful, if that is possible, kind of like that one chap with the marines pouring out of the ship) something similar to that.

I hope it is not too much trouble to ask and I'd appreciate the help.

Thanks.

Status: offline 		You can post pics directly to the forum in your profile, although they DO limit the size the allow much more than places like PhotoBucket.

EDIT: you can get around this by posting a picture to the regular forum, and then just copy the name of the pic (use "edit" to see what name the forum assigns) - then use the name in your banner area to get around the size limitations without having to open up a PhotoBucket-type account.

Status: offline 		Thanks for the tips but it's not the hosting thing I have a problem with, that I can handle. It's the actual making of the banner. I'm asking if someone could make me a banner, if it is not too much trouble. And I have tried Photoshop once and couldn't understand or get on with it at all.

If someone is interested, I can look for pictures but I'd want to know if anyone could help me with it.

Sure, no problem.

Just send me a picture and the text ("Japanese Army Fanboy"?).

That'd be excellent and I really appreciate the help my good sir. I'll browse around for a decent picture and when I have what I am interested in I will send you a PM, along with the text I would like to use. Basically, if you could fit it into a banner, that would be excellent.

Thankyou for your help!

I can indeed see what you mean on there being no art, which is a shame......
