Wow! Cheers Mate!
It was so helpful. Hope to learn as much as I can.
Hello everyone,
I decided to start a thread where I can share my knowledge about Forum's BBCode.
Follow my lessons and tutorials and increase your skills, learn how to design and create your own BBCode signature or create one for someone else.
If you think it's a cool idea please reply and let me know.

Lesson 2: BBCode signature max. heightSignature
max. height is same for all ranks.
Simple way to check what's the maximum possible height: While designing a signature - create a table column with 3 lines of text, in each line write a letter 'p'.
Remember: Profile signature space has 'same' cascading style sheets as a 'quote' - - That's why anything below 3rd line 'p' will be not visible on your signature space.
p
p
p
Lesson 3: Senior/Hero/Legendary Members signature table template (and a bit about tables...)Tables are made from columns and rows.
To create a table you need to create a table frame and rows. Rows contains columns.
Simple explanation in an example:Open a table -> open a row with ie. 4 columns -> close a row -> create another row with 4 columns -> close a row -> close a tableIn a code same example looks like:[table]
[tr]
[td]
Row_1_column_1
[/td]
[td]
Row_1_column_2
[/td]
[td]
Row_1_column_3
[/td]
[td]
Row_1_column_4
[/td]
[/tr]
[tr]
[td]
Row_2_column_1
[/td]
[td]
Row_2_column_2
[/td]
[td]
Row_2_column_3
[/td]
[td]
Row_2_column_4
[/td]
[/tr]
[/table]
Preview:Row_1_column_1
| Row_1_column_2
| Row_1_column_3
| Row_1_column_4
|
Row_2_column_1
| Row_2_column_2
| Row_2_column_3
| Row_2_column_4
|
When you want to create a new signature design (For Senior/Hero/Legendary Members) you can start with a template which will save your time:
[quote][table]
[tr]
[td]
p
p
p - MAX. HEIGHT -
[/td]
[td]
CONTENT
[/td]
[/tr]
[/table][/quote]
After design is ready remove 'quote' tags and your BBCode signature code is ready
