Well for some unknown reason I have a had a few requests asking me where I got my sig from and I got the feeling somone thought I was hacking them, by displaying their i.s.p. and i.p. address respectively.

This is not the case.

Go here if you want a sig like mine and the other thousands (2,253,159+ + +) on various forums around the net.


Sorry to bore those that already know. So no lame comments.

Apologies if this is in wrong area of Neowin.

Like mine?

some dont even work!

Yeah Going to make my own soon, getting bored with the interface.

Whatever you create, pass it around

I hate those sigs

These are all very pretty...but they are displaying an incorrect I.P. address.....

I feel for you... Those sigs are ugly

I found it pretty neat, can any explain how this works?

Thanks.

Weren't these all the rage about 2 years ago?

Me to! I hate them!

YOUR HACKING ME OHH NOOZZ!!!

Stupid people.

I thought it was a great novelty when they first started poping up but now that I have my ISP and provider memorized it no longer is.

Adblock - I now never have to look at them again period.

They were popular on the past. but now

They do not really work anyway, most of the info is incorrect!

The ISP info doesn't even work, it just says "com.au" for me and the IP is slighty off

People that are annoyed with signatures, just disable them.

Isn't ISP and provider the same thing?

By the way, they only show your IP and only you can see your own. It's different for other people. Nobody else can see your IP. People can only see their own IP.

They are really annoying, but it is simple to get this information since your IP is very easy to get, your browser uses it to request information.

its a easy way to find out what your IP address is. as long as no one is logging the IP addresses, then I don't see a problem with them. if someone has a problem with it, take Sietse's advice and save neowin some bandwidth.

I love adblock

I love signatures

I'm not using IE6, I'm an Opera user

the idea is quite old and the sig expires after awhile. i know my ip and browser. no need to tell me and make my dialup load senseless graphics.

is one simple sig, but I don't like it only annoying me a lot going to find some manner to hide my isp <j/k>

If you log IPs in those sigs you need a disclaimer + agreement page before the user sees the signature. (DPA '98 regulations)... Simple PHP code can do that... in an image , GD lib is great.

Then make img.php and make the GD code, then when you wanna put what you want your sig to say:

Then [ img]img.php url[ /img]

that's what I thought...

shouldn't this be in internet or even guides?

but i dont care much for them. they spelt "Rogers" wrong... but oh well... you shouldn't use the internet and trash it if you dont know how to use it properly
