Yes I did it in paint but no one has told me yet how do I put it in my signature.
Note: Paint = Precise Science (as in pixel x pixel) / Photo Shop = Sloppy Science (as in mistakes aren't that bad)
Been here since Discovery 4.77 (lurk mode engaged)

He flies through half the system before going back to New Berlin, where he cruises from one side of the system to the other, hugging the sun as close as he can. All the while, he flies near Battleships trying to scrape me off. I finally send out the white flag, and move back to Sigma 13. However, it was a ruse, and he bit. Knowing his trade route, I interdicted the trade lane and the chase began anew. It ended, an hour after it began, with me retreating, out of Countermeasures and getting very irritated.
He kept boasting how he has never been caught; I'd like to see him beat until he begs to pay, then beaten some more.

To get there, you can use the 'My Controls' link or click on your name in the 'Logged in as: Caribe (Log Out)' and select 'Edit my signature'.
Hehe, I like your art, takes an awful lot of patience. I've seen things done in Paint that people would never believe can be done. Don't underestimate Photoshop though, I'm some six years into it as a pro and I'm still learning, you can't believe the know-how there is in it. The true Photoshop power isn't in the bulk shiny effects or the lot of filters, that's the easy part. As for the precision, Photoshop is precise in percentages of a pixel.:P
edit: added the code as it wouldn't display
If the stars should appear one night in a thousand years, how would men believe and adore and preserve for many generations the remembrance of the city of God? - from 'Nightfall' by I. Asimov The Outcasts consider Siniestre Nube a sacred place for several reasons. Early explorers discovered a jumphole within the depths of the cloud that leads to a strange world of ringed stars and strange craft. All ships in the burrial ground are placed facing that hole to honor the Alien Spirits. - An Outcast rumor

Oops! Now, go to www.photobucket.com, sign in for an account there and host your images there. I do that.

Aye, anybody who wants to host images should go to photobucket. I use it it to post all of my screenshots.
Also, when It comes to quality issues, I have found that saving files as .gif is one of the best ways (see my upper sig image) as opposed to .jpeg( lower sig image). Photobucket aslo doesn't accept image uploads of some of the really fancy fle types.

Hehe, yes I use PNG when I need transparency, downfall is though, it's a huge file:(

Hmm interesting, all of these file types offer different ways of showing images. I think for now I will still with .gif because, if you look at my two sigg images, the upper one is a gif file and the lower one is a jpeg file. I think the upper one looks a lot cleaner and more refined and the lower one looks blurry.
