I saved the little guy holding the stick, now how do I make a box and write in it?
Thank you in advance (this is so cute!).

Alternately, type the text you want in the sign, then highlight it, and click the sign icon at the top (on top of the bank of smilies on the right).

Here's my sign

I don't see the part where you get the little guy with the sign in the first place.

Sorry if I'm posting twice. The other disappeared, but may have been sent. How do you get the little guy in the first place?

When you click "Post Reply" to make a new post, you get the post-creating window, including all the editing tools. If you look to the right, you'll see a couple of columns of smilies. Right on top of that is an icon of a little guy holding a sign that says [S] on it. Type the text you want to appear on a sign, highlight it, and then click that little sign-guy icon. That will put the sign tags around the highlighted text, and when you click "Submit Reply", the text will be in a sign.

LOL!

I wish we had this one:

[spoiler]you won't see this text unless you highlight it[/spoiler]

(You might not like that odor/scratch&sniff one if it was a skunk in there instead of a strawberry. )

hehehe good one. People have different backgrounds, if you had it all white you could color the text white and it would work, just not the way it's supposed too. That's funny (well geek funny, you nailed me on it)

I do that all the time, but with all the different color backgrounds yu can have here, odds are that at least half the posters will be able to see it without highlighting.

I use the "CA Sky" skin, so I'll use the light-blue color, but I think that shows up pretty well on the "Desert", "Khaki", and "Goldenrod" skins.

I sure learn a lot here.

So cool!
