I want my sig to be set up like this, but thr size settings will never take effect, whats going on?

Computer 1: AXP 2100+@2345MHz~3000+ 138MHz FSB | r9700pro@366/346 Omega drivers | 768M Crucial pc-133 ram 2-2-2-6 138MHz | Soundblaster audigy 1 on KX drivers | 4 80gig western digital 7200rpm 8MB cache in raid 0

Nothing is working, it won't even adjust its size when I post it in a regular message.

What code are you using?

Try [*SIZE=xxx-small] blablablablabla[*/SIZE]

obviously without the star, your probably doing SIZE=0, or 1.

I tried size=10

does this work?

Try SIZE=10, or SIZE=11, the text above is 11, might work for you....

It's not working for you either huh?

Zardon

it does on the blue theme but the new theme No.


as we're using a strict DOCTYPE is has to be valid
Colour codes like ffccaa now need to be #ffccaa
Size needs a unit. So [size=16] no longer works. Instead use [size=16px] for pixels or 85% for a percentage of the base font size (my preference).

For my sig, I use "size=10". Don't know if that helps.

[size=16px]Does this work?[/size]

Zardon

its 16 pixels yes.

To expand on what Zardon said:

The blue heaven style was written to work with browsers in non-standards mode.

This new style is not, meaing, [color=ffcc00] is invalid, and you need [color=#ffcc00]. The way you were doing it before was not valid, however, in non-standards mode, the browser assumes you meant to have a # there.

The same thing applies to sizing, before, when I didn't have a valid HTML DTD, the browser would run in quirks mode, and would assume you meant pixels if you typed in [size=16], you must now specify what unit you are using:

px = pixels
pt = points
% = percentage relative to the size around it.

Example usage: [size=16px], [size=10pt], [size=85%].

Also note that it is possible to shorten the hex colors: #ffcc00 -> #fc0 or #112233 -> #123
