The best part was when he chose to save them as .bmp files

...if that tutorial got on thoose boards, it would get closed. Fast. xD

But honestly, he didn't even turn it into a GIF/JPG/PNG file. BMP files are evil on the web.

No. He didn't even mention GIF or PNG. BMPs seem to have no image compression and JPGs hare really poor quality on things with flat colors.

Not to mention the fact that MS paint's compression algorithms in general are just terrible (Try saving pretty much anything to a .GIF and you'll see what I mean. About the only way around this that I've found [Short of using a better program, of course] is to open a new file, IMMEDIATELY save it as a .GIF, and work from there).

OMG HE USES MS PAINT N00B. IT SUCKS BECAUSE IT WAS MADE BY MICROSOFT. [/microsoft hater]

But come on, the first thing I'd say is "Do not use BMPs, use GIFs or PNGs instead."

MS does suck. But that's not the first thing I'd tell him.

The first thing I'd tell him would be to stop writing MS Paint tutorials, everyone knows how to use it.

Second, there're free alternatives to it. One that are betar.

Third, DONT USE BMP >(.

According to the first three replies orso, it seems that a lot of people didn't know how to make a sig in Paint

And I can't describe how very

The sample one he made had blue text on a black and red background ... must be a tutorial for n00bs to make crap no one wants to see

The images are .gif, but he did say "I have chosen .bmp" ...


I've used Paint for maybe 3 days after I got my old Pentium 200MHz, then got Paint Shop Pro 4 ... which I still use after almost 7 years, it's my perfect alternative to Paint (simple, still fits on a floppy disk, better interface, supports JPG, GIF and PNG properly and even more formats, more features, not free but fully functional)

Am I the only one who thinks that tutorial was being sarcastic?

Am I? Please tell me I'm not. Just look at the poster's sig, it's high-quality...

------

I read it though, and yes, it's a halarious guide. And I've made good sigs in Paint (this layout was made in it, for example, and so was my minipic/avatar)


I should look into PSP4, since you can just set the clock back... And if it still fits on a floppy, damn. Especially given that most graphic programs are CD-filling now XD

Shortly after posting:

[06:13.54a] +Xkeeper> double fuck
[06:13.59a] +Xkeeper> fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck
[06:14.24a] +Xkeeper> there went 2000
[06:14.26a] +Xkeeper> XD

Oops. XDDD

I can't tell if it was sarcasm or not. Evidently, a few users actually need to know how to do this.

MS Paint isn't bad for making sigs though -- it's really really good for pixel art (particularly isometric).

I just don't think anybody is going to make isometric signatures....
