I did the first one as a joke a few months back but it turns out I really enjoy making these things. I dont really expect people to actually use forum signatures but I wanted to show them off. They are in a single image cause the website wont let me upload 11 images at once.

as a kid i hated forum signatures because the worse implementations made it hard to distinguish comment from signature, but as an adult I year for the goofy creativity we used to have. Shitty reddit avatars and anime profile pics is all we have left :(

You can just post with a signature! The part at the bottom of your post is free realestate, the admins don't want you to know this.

Honestly kids these days want the old internet but don't want to put in any damn work. yells-at-cloud

It's just not right without a beanis one. You know it. If we had forum signatures there would be more beanis signatures than any other.

[-] JustSo@hexbear.net 10 points 1 week ago

yea.. I came to find the beanis one and was very disappointed. I think this is what they call revisionism.

[-] 9to5@hexbear.net 9 points 1 week ago

So you agree Hexbear would be at least 50% better if we had signatures =?

[-] Awoo@hexbear.net 16 points 1 week ago

I wouldn't be against it at all. I think that a "hide signatures" feature should exist too though to give people the choice of both worlds.

[-] JustSo@hexbear.net 5 points 1 week ago

We already have signatures for those with effort to post. And they're unblockable.

I think signatures improve hexbear but I think they are better as a DIY hobby rather than ubiquitous feature requiring zero effort.

This is violence

[-] Sam@hexbear.net 5 points 1 week ago

Im afraid I just have no clue what the fuck it is.

[-] Awoo@hexbear.net 3 points 1 week ago

Do you filter badposting by any chance?

Beanis is the local meme of the bean people.

[-] SockOlm@hexbear.net 25 points 1 week ago

These are super awesome, they remind me of those geocity website banners that you could just copy paste onto a website

[-] iByteABit@hexbear.net 23 points 1 week ago

Lmao

Maybe this is worth opening an issue about on Lemmy, it would be a fun feature especially here

[-] Dessa@hexbear.net 18 points 1 week ago

I know some people really don't like them. If they get added, they should be toggleable

[-] Mindfury@hexbear.net 17 points 1 week ago

[-] invo_rt@hexbear.net 14 points 1 week ago

Good stuff haha. I need one for "monitoring the situation"

[-] abc@hexbear.net 14 points 1 week ago

the best signature is the one you make yourself


[-] JustSo@hexbear.net 10 points 1 week ago

but the second best signature is one you don't have to make yourself

[-] Infamousblt@hexbear.net 12 points 1 week ago

This is fucking incredible

[-] KuroXppi@hexbear.net 11 points 1 week ago

Beanis signature pls

[-] MLRL_Commie@hexbear.net 8 points 1 week ago

If you make one that says something about being in the China part of my Life, I'd use it for sure. I'm way too lazy to do it myself

[-] Sam@hexbear.net 11 points 1 week ago
[-] MLRL_Commie@hexbear.net 5 points 1 week ago

Amazing. Now I gotta figure out how to make this easy on myself.... how the he'll do others do it on hexbear??

[-] Sam@hexbear.net 7 points 1 week ago

A line like this


is created through "***" without quotes Then just take a new line and copy the image imbed link:

***

becomes


Make sure to use the same link each time instead of uploading a new imbed to make loading easier on other users.

I need to get a Possadobeanis signature. The lathe one is my favorite one so far.

[-] BattleshipPokemon@hexbear.net 3 points 1 week ago
