Create a dynamic Twitter Signature

Twitter: Some love it while others would never even think of using the service that lets other people know what you are currently doing. Still it is widely popular and third party applications are beginning to be published that take advantage of this popularity.

Twitsig is one of those applications. It creates a dynamic image that is displaying your user icon and your last message in a signature image. This signature can be embedded into forums or blogs for instance where signatures are allowed.

The process is simple. Just enter the twitter user name and click on the Get Code button. Three different types of links are displayed once the code is generated. One direct link to the image which does not get updated, one html link to embed into websites and blogs and one in BBcode for forums.

Since I do not have a Twitter account I have used the one from Bill Gates which means that you get his updated Twitter notifications in this article.

Userbars can be used to display custom messages in signatures that are displayed in forums and other places. The difficulty is creating those userbars which normally requires knowledge of image manipulation applications such as Adobe Photoshop or Gimp. There are several softwares that take that burden from the user and make it quite easy to create userbars with a few simple clicks of the mouse.

Userbar Generator is one of those softwares that lets you quickly create userbars. All you need to do is to select the two colors of the bar and add a text to it. It is possible to add an image as well and play around with several other settings such as transparency and borders.

Last but not least it is possible to change the width and height of the userbar that is created. The resulting userbars are really nice looking. If you want a userbar you should definitely take a look.

Signature Suggestions

You just signed up for this cool forum where everyone is having a great signature and you desperately need one as well. My advice would be to visit the coolsig website and take a look at their signature archive. Categories include People and Society, Oddballs, Humor and Geeky Signatures.

Some of my favorites include “I’m not normally a praying man, but if you’re up there, please save me, Superman!” – Homer Simpson”, ” A hacker does for love what others would not do for money.” and ” Stewardesses is the longest word that is typed with only the left hand.”
