Bitcointalk.org forum's signatures & avatars

[Jet Cash]

The idea of an avatar is to provide a unique image to make your account recognisable.

I don't understand the benefit to the forum or the member from having a link to BitcoinTalk in a signature. It just clutters up the thread, and provides no advantages in my opinion.

Sir I have a little suggestion about these signatures if you add the "founder" or "satoshi" word in these signatures so that will be great I guess maybe you thought about this idea while creating these signatures I am not sure but anway you did brilliant work here.

You can see the benefits or not, it depends on your perspective.

I integrated links to Epochtalk's Github as well as two trial forums with Epochtalk software, one from unknown person, and one from Coinbistro. There is also a link to Satoshi's lesson. So the signature is helpful or not, it depends on who see it and how they feel about it.

Satoshi's lesson, which is a very inspirational thread (written by theymos) I have ever seen in the past two years (in my perspective), and I believe not all users know about it.

Maybe replace the link with bitcoin's WP instead of a link to the forum. I am fine with the other forum links (Welcome to the new Bitcoin forum! and Satoshi Lesson).


I find it strange that a post which has a similar point to Jet Cash was deleted by the mod together with my reply that's also similar with the OP's response to JC. I don't think UserU's post was really off-topic.

A reply of yours, quoted below, was deleted by a Bitcoin Forum moderator. Posts are most frequently deleted because they are off-topic, though they can also be deleted for other reasons. In the future, please avoid posting things that need to be deleted.

Aren't we supporting the forum by already engaging with it? Since both visitors and members already represent the viewcounts and engagements through both topics and ads, bearing the site's sig and avatar doesn't seem to add much value. In addition, it can be supported (or promoted) via external channels such as other forums, social media and paid advertisements.

If I'm the forum owner, I'd rather effectively utilize the spaces for advertising external brands.

If you look closer at the signature, you can find external sites there

Code:

https://bitcoin.org/en/
https://coinbistro.com/boards
https://www.cryptos-currencies.com/boards
http://epochtalk.org/
https://github.com/epochtalk/epochtalk

I also appreciate OP's inclusion of some threads that were buried and will probably never be read by other forum users if they don't see it in the signatures. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5092492.0

epochtalk isn't as friendly as I thought. I have no idea what it is. I thought this is a discussion board but a forum software to install on a server.

<...>

The intent, is that Epochtalk is a forum software, whereby you (or anyone) can create and support their own forum, much like SMF is the software that supports Bitcointalk. Bitcointalk will/should/could therefore be an instance on Epochtalk (one of many potential ones).

It is still in development, but you can take a look at it either by downloading and installing the software to create your own forum, or by using one of the available community generated test forums, created on Epochtalk:

Cryptos-Currencies.Com : First forum using Epochtalk
Coinbistro.com - Epochtalk testing grounds

I have a question.
Is it Okay for to modify part of the signature (the 10 years of bitcointalk part) to something of my linking like a link to the forum rules or something historic about bitcoin?

You are welcome, Jerome. It is ok from my side, you can use and modify it.

Honestly, the first version was designed by Heisenberg_Hunter then I modified it. This post of mine can be an evidence for you if someone judge you plagiarise the signature in the thread.

I saw Rizzrack modified the code to integrate the Discord party but I have never asked him for that version. Maybe I should ask him soon.

When you finish your works, please leave your signature code here, I am gonna update OP with it.

By the way, if you can, please drop by my thread Bitcointalk.org forum's signatures and avatars and share the signature code you use. Thanks.

To be fair just edited the name and URL between the last pair of brackets to include the Discord server link and ANN thread.
Awesome design !

Also tested it on Coinbistro though some more modifications were necessary to make it fit nicely
