Step 1: Go to the login / register page and hit register


Quote:


Step 2: Type in your info (make sure not to use weird characters for your username and avoid spaces)



Quote:

Step 3: Pick font size and font color, size and other stuff. some themes don’t have this option and use their own predefined colors. Make sure to hit the update button when changing settings


Quote:


Step 4: if you want to use themes, pick one from the drop down box. if you want to use apple theme, select one and go back to apple.


Quote:


Step 5: after theme is selected you will see a preview of it and the code to go along with it. copy (ctrl+c) the code. There are two codes, one is html and the other is BBCode which is used by most forums. take the BBCode if you are going to use it in a forum.



Quote:

Step 6: go to your forum and hit profile. (phpBB is used for this sample).



Quote:

Step 7: scroll down to your signature text area and paste in the BBCode you got from where you choose your theme.



Quote:

Step 8: Submit to update your signature




Quote:

Step 9: Now you should see your signature in the forums



Quote:

Step 10a: Download SigX Client. This is the program that runs on your computer and submits all the data to the server




Quote:

Step 10: Here is what it looks like after setting up and putting in the data you want to show



Quote:

Step 11: Screenshot of what your signature should look after successful update and with those settings




Quote:


Step 12:
(A) Always remember to minimize SigX so it runs and updates periodically.

(B) I have mine to start automatically when windows starts and also starts minimized. You can also setup random quotes through the random quote editor.

(C) Make sure to check the boxes next to the items you want to be displayed on the image

(D) The status bar will tell you if you mistyped your username or password and if the update was successful.

Step 13: Screenshot of what SigX looks like when minimize in the system tray
