FlyNET Signatures

Post by **Konny** » Thu Nov 17, 2005 7:08 pm

Hi,

I just tested something and found out that it would be no problem to make dynamic forum signatures, showing your current flight state etc. But I could need some help with the design. So, if you know how to use your image-editing software, any help would be appreciated. Typical size of a signature is about 90x400. Post your propositions here in this thread and we'll choose the best. I'ld first like to have a general FlyNET signature, but you can also make a design for your VA only.

Nice, I like the background, but I think the text could need some tuning, it looks a bit too simple. And in my point of view 470x130 is too large. I would say 400x90 maximum.

Well, I did something myself now.
Here is a first look:

Ok, it's time for the second look

The signatures should be working now.
There are two images for each aircraft. One which is shown if you have booked/are flying flight and one if not

. If you have booked a flight, the proper aircraft will be shown ( only if there already exists an image of the aircraft). If there is no booked flight, your standard aircraft will be shown. Currently this is set to C208, but I'll add an option to change that in your pilot profile soon.

At the moment only the Cessna 182 and 208 have a sig-picture, all the other aircrafts will be shown as the standard aircraft ( C208 ). If you want more, please send a nice image of the aircraft to info@flynet.en-studios.de . The images can also be used for the aircraft-info sites . So it would be possible to kill two birds with one stone

If you don't like the signatures, pls tell me. I can also change the shown data if you want.

Well, here are all the motives. These are static images and the letters are a bit smoother than they are in the dynamic images I think.

Thanks to tsb for the image

If you wanna test the signatures, the path is :

Got a bunch of new images from tsb ( thanks alot

) and made some new signatures out of them. Now you can set your standard signature aircraft in your profile.

No Problem, I'll be designing some signitures shortly too!

I just noticed I have an A310-304 ET on my Signature instead of a Cessna? Any particular reason? (I would love to keep it as the default though, looks much more impressive than the little Prop)

Just wondering if its because of my flight ranking, my total flights, or something else entirely.

Cheers,
Justin

Hm, good question

The only reason I can think of is that you got on the editing-page in your profile and because you haven't chosen an aircraft before, it just set the first on the list ( the A310 ) to the default signature aircraft. Just go back to your profile and change it to whatever you want.

I just changed the second line on the right from the VA rank to the rating of the pilot.
I think this is more interesting than the rank, which is more or less static.
