    My signature represents Zebular's devotion to the ancient ways of the Goddess Mystra, when she was known as Mystryl and held the portfolio of Magic and Time. It depicts her last known avatar form as the incarnation of Mystra, before her death in the Time of the Troubles and the ascension of Midnight to become the latest incarnation before her tragic death again.

    The symbol in my avatar is the Thorass letter for "Z" and includes a still of an animation of Elminster.

    My name is Jade and I am a blade-a-holic...

    My favorite color is green and I think this shows in my signature.

    I plan to play a trickster rogue who is all about blades...

    The name of "Jade Scimitar" came from combining one of my favorite Forgotten Realms rogue characters Jade More from the Realmsian novel "The Wyvern Spur" and the favorite weapon of my other favorite "roguish" character, the rogue dark elf ranger Drizzt Do'Urden. Plus it makes a nice icon being a green curved blade...

    As for my signature: a nice elven forest village background with a faerie dragon floating next to Jade, green of course, just for fun. The symbol furthest to the left is for Tyr's Paladium, the guild Jade is affiliated with, the second symbol is of House Korianthil, the elven house that Jade is from, and the third symbol is a reminder of the time Jade spent as a swashbuckler on board the Raven as hinted in chapter one of the Endingdawn story and the fact that I just spent Halloween as a pirate myself. The green swords flanking "Neverwinter" are "jade scimitars..." Oh and the elven Espruar message along the bottom, well, you'll have to decipher it for yourself if you are curious... The hardest part was to match the new dark brownish background of the forum to make the Neverwinter and jade scimitars "float" again.

    And then there's Jade in her signature black holding one of her favorite "jade daggers..."

    The quote beneath the signature is paraphrased from Andy "The Bad" Velasquez, when he was describing the trickster rogue to Athene in one of the many "Neverwinter Gameplay" videos on YouTube.

    The links are some of my favorite DnD / Forgotten Realms related websites.

    The avatar is of Jade in some of her "work clothes."

    Just had a random slightly crazy but kind of relevant thought about my sig style. It's like Zebular is my Jedi master and as a padawan often models his/her light saber after their mentor's ; my sigs are distinct echoes of Zeb's sigs for the moderators... Just my crazy random thought of the day regarding sigs...

    My sig is based on my love of philosophy, god and wizards. Look up the phrase above my handle and you will see I AM is not simply a phrase, but the based on the word itself! Which word? THE word. Sorry if I say it, I might undo creation :)


    The wizard I found and thought it just looks cool. Whether my truthseeker character looks like that or not depends on which (re)incarnation he is in. Who could say?

    And the eye to me just looked cool.

    The links are pretty clear, but if I happen to think that wizards rock, maybe you can click and see why? I'm certainly known for my sense of humor even on my favorite class! :D



    Thanks to Zebular putting it all together for me!

    Here you go varrvarr, something I cooked up kind of quick...

    If you want I can add whatever name you want on it in the black field on the upper right

    I love it! Thank you so much! I'll skip the name for now, just because I haven't fully settled on one. Thank you again!

    Use the command (center/) text to be centered (/center) but change the "(" to "[" parentheses to brackets

    Or just go "Go advanced" editor mode on the window and select the center justification command

    Just to clarify, 500px is the max Width (which hasn't changed). The new height allowance has been upped to 250px however. I find 150px high is aesthetically nice but do agree, 250 may be excessive. Fixed the post's erroneous statement of 250kb file size, that should have been 200kb.

    Yup, 150px is about right which leaves 50px and 50px for two lines of text for me. Still looks a bit huge compared with what we had before, but I like it!

    Indeed nice catch! I meant height. However...
    *thinking of a lame excuse*

    in order to look cute my head was tilted by more than 45 degrees hence it appeared to me as a width instead of height.

    There was a reason when something I thought would work wasn't working - so the kitty was me. But it was resolved and after that, just forgot to change it back :p

    Corrected now.
