These are my signature code(s) - anyone is welcome to use these as formats. Please watch the linking and redirects though. The first few sig(s) render an image outside the signature file itself, making objections to the formatting basically moot:

 * This one is in use currently

Here's something fun: How to rename a word or phrase using insertion: Arbitrary - this will rename the first function (in this case "hornblowing" to "Arbitrary" while delivering the page/incident/name case of hornblowing - hover over the word "Arbitrary" to see the renamed page/incident/name case

Signature issue

Barada, just a note that as per WP:SIG, you're not supposed to have images in your signature. Let me know if you need any help correcting it (✉→BWilkins←✎) 13:13, 15 February 2013 (UTC)

Thank you for coming to my page and saying "Hi" :)  To expound, I purposefully designed the HTML code to display the custom sig, texting, colors, borders, and inclusions.  I limited the pixel range and kept the sizing small to prevent it displaying on more than the usual line space.  I very much appreciate the extra guidance you indicated.  Of note, I see little bits and pieces of images and other devices used that display similarly all over Wiki, and there does seem to be a tad of inconsistency in the use and presentation thereof.  I can move the image file (or whatever) to display directly after the signature instead of within it, but the appearance will be virtually identical, thus rendering the change sort of moot.  Also, I made certain the embedded links in my sig work exactly as intended so there are no external factors or redirect issues.  Really and truly, most everything can just be "recoded" to render whatever appearance is desired despite guidelines. In all honesty, even your sig has tiny files that render as non-text. No, I won't post a "how to" for others to read and run rampant with ;) hehe

Though I'm here to understand everyone's points, I'm one of those WP:IGNORE supporters, and my efforts are to improve the flexibility and appearance of Wiki for others who wish to explore that dynamic, while not intentionally impacting the ability of other editors to freely and fully express themselves. However, I don't know everything, and I am always on a quest to understand more Barada   wha?   05:33, 18 February 2013 (UTC)
