You'll need to reduce the size of your images to (at most) 18px in width so their height does not exceed 20px. OptimisticFool 21:51, 10 July 2008 (UTC)

I did it! I just wanna know how to change the font. The one I want to use the most is Andy! Help, I need somebody! Help, not just anybody! LOL! Parrothead1 13:03, 11 July 2008 (UTC)

Nevermind! My sig is complete! Hooray! Parrothead1 13:38, 11 July 2008 (UTC)

Ah well... I got edit conflicted :) Since I've already typed this out, I'll go ahead and post it even though you said you're done with the sig.

The CSS you are looking for is "font-family". ("family-font" is gibberish in CSS). As for the font, you'll want something like this:

Parrothead1

But note that most people don't have the "Andy" font installed, therefore they won't see it. It'll just use the default font instead. You can't do anything about that really, but you can list a few fonts separated by commas, and people will see the first one on the list that is actually installed on their computer. So, the "Comic Sans MS" font is probably the closest thing to "Andy" that is commonly present on most machines, and then you can put generic things like "cursive", "sans-serif" in there, for something like:

Hope that helps.  Green Helmet 13:42, 11 July 2008 (UTC)
