    I like the new "Neverwinter" in your current signature far better Adaram!

    And your new one is great too Gillrmn. The only things I'd critique about it is I feel "elune" should be closer to the moon and that it would look better with a light gray glow to highlight it.
    It seems almost separated from the S and slightly lost in the predominately white background. Just the slightest of gray glows could give it an almost star-like quality.
    It would probably be better to be an inner rather than outer glow though.

    ...
    The text looks nice, but border looks a bit odd to me. Can't really say I am sure what is 'odd' but perhaps it is too bright, or too saturated. Although the text below looks cool, text in the logo of house is not visible(maybe not put any effect on that text).
    Rest of it looks really cool.

    Yeah I am still experimenting with it a bit. I am trying to see if I can ceate a silver glow...

    dracolich is not a true dragon. Just a skeleton zombie made of bones of strongest monsters.

    Yeah Jade, I love the border design! However, I also think the border would look much better with a little less saturation.

    Love the new signatures Adaram and Gillrmn!

    The program I mainly use, and have used for over a decade now, is Macromedia Fireworks - being able to generally update to the latest version. It's rather pricey though and now Macromedia is owned by Adobe, who also owns Photoshop. Many years ago I bought both Fireworks and Dreamweaver for my graphics and web business. Even after I stopped doing them professionally, I still continue to use those two products and I love them and are extremely familiar with them. I do own an old version of Photoshop but haven't used it in a few years. On occasion, I do try out GIMP again but rarely stay with it because of my fondness and familiarity with Fireworks.

    And here I thought I was being clever! :) Just shows I don't know half as much as I need to about the Neverwinter setting!

    Okay, tried out every slide bar labelled with "saturation" and didn't really like anything I saw. So, I cut the border thickness by 25% and blurred it to make it softer.

    I actually like this better -- I can't see the older one anymore, but, from memory, this looks notably better. Nice - I really like it!

    I like the current version a lot too! The green border fits much nicer now and aesthetically blends in better with the color of the "Neverwinter" between the scimitars. :-)

    Well done, indeed!

    Actually its a lot better than other one - it gives a feeling of grass growing from the sides (or algae) and thus feels more natural compared to the hard wood frame..

    symbols also are perfect now.

    Also faerie dragon reminds me of
    this

    I liked the last version better :(

    Could the "eye" be re-sized down and put in that black area just northeast of the R at the end of Neverwinter? Then leave the rest the same?

    Not a big fan of rum and the huge headaches I get from it. I prefer martinis!

    Hey Gillrmn, I noticed you have a message when I hover over your signature "Selune be praised" or something to that effect. Even though my commands are disabled what is the code for that once I do get access? Thanks!

    Hey Mod Squad! Any word on unlocking more BB options for us lay folk? I am finding my signature creativity being stifled at the moment...

    lol. Its not a BBcode. Its just simple text.

    For example, replace
    [SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]
    with
    [SIGPIC]Jade is awesome[/SIGPIC]

    P.S. I missed reading it. Just send me a PM next time for specific questions to me as it is more noticeable.

    This is the link you are looking for.
    If you want to hide the display of the entire signature, uncheck "Show Signatures."
    If you want to just hide the display of Images, uncheck "Show Images."

    Bear in mind, forum upgrade is scheduled to happen tomorrow morning (depending on one's time zone).

    Is the right place to ask about the meaning of your new avatars and new signatures?

    Can you all do that please?

    I will start. Theme of my signature is Selune, the goddess of the moon. Also called Moonmaiden and Our Lady of Silver.
    Silverstar is a paragon path of Selune. Any arcanist or divine source user can be a silverstar which includes bards, clerics and wizards.

    The name of my foundry campaign wll be Silverstars of Selune (so keep and eye out for it)
    The links below will be linked with info when foundry is released.

    My Avatar is Selune's six small and one large star and in front is her symbol.
