Yeah, I don't know how it works. Take capsocrates, for example, and compare him to me:

I have been a site member longer.
I have more posts.
I have more green OM's.
I am a Site Supporter.
I am a Moderator in some areas of the forums.
I am a C3G member.

And yet, my signature still has the 5 lines / 500 character limit. capsocrates is at 7 lines...

my limit is 600 characters and 5 lines... and I'm brand new

Edit: I was just trying to pack as much stuff into my block as I could. I realized that you could never sum up C3G in a single Signature block.

Ages? I think I asked once and then a long time later I asked a follow up question.

But in my best Napoleon Dynamite voice: "No, he doesn't know anything."

I suppose I should have mentioned that if I could add more lines/characters in my signature I could add a bunch of lines of inflammatory stuff

I know I'm a little late to the party but here's my 2 cents...

I have a question concerning virtualscape. I used to know how to do this, but the memory has long since faded from my mind due to a lack of VS activity in recent months. Here is the question:
When creating a personal tile in VS, how do you get it to select the tile texture that you have made, and not just the ones that come with the download?
I know how to create your own texture and everything, but I do not see a way to 'upload' your texture so that you can use it. Any thoughts?
Thanks.

Once you've save the textures into the Virtualscape Personal folder, Open Virtualscape and then the Configuration menu. Click on Personal Tiles, which opens a Dialogue Box. Click Add... and I think you can get it from there. If not, come back.

I fear I do not come bearing stories of success. When I click add, I can name the tile, select the color for the 2-D view, select the 3-D views, etc. The problem is that the 3-D views are in a pull down menu, and when I pull it down, mine is not there. I have saved my texture in the same folder as the same file type.
I know there's a way to do this, because I've done it in the past, I just can't remember what it is. Might have been an earlier version though...
