Thank you. I changed my sig. I didn't see a way to incorporate it into my own stat banner so that the stars for HomeBrewers would appear on the far right, just above the team stats. Is that possible? Maybe I just missed it; probably got in too much of a hurry because I've got to leave now for a wedding reception. Will check it closer when I get back. I know I've seen other banners like that, but I don't know if they are using Boerni's system.

Cheers.

Re: ATTENTION: HomeBrewers team members

Try putting the URL for the team stars on the same line as the beer chugging smiley before the hard return. That should put it on the same line.
You may want to reduce the size of your "click here..." message to pull things in a little neater. Keep in mind, the stars are going to multiply. smile

Bill i think i can help you here, If you dont mind smile

But first can i say well done for hitting your first team million! applause

I made the banners for The PCReview Crew II, including the background. I know how the generator works. biggrin

As far as i am aware, you cannot put the stars in the default/standard background, oh how i tried........Until i realised you cant! So you need to use an alternative background. wink

I have done you an example of how you can have the team stars in your banner below.

This is not the final version!

There are more changes you can make. Notice how in my banner i have rearanged the layout of the stats, by putting the points and results at the top followed by the CPU times. smile

I will do a black background for you and update the one above with your original colours. cool

Let me know what you think. smile

V_R, that is super. ... but just to make it _PERFECT_ for me biggrin

, can you make the 'v' in Billvelek a capital 'V', like "BillVelek", and do the same for the 'b' in Homebrewers, so that it will look like "HomeBrewers"? I know that that probably sounds very nit-picking, but I would love it. ... Heh, heh. It's probably the beer speaking. Very nice wedding reception ... lots of beer. biggrin

And then we went to another club where my boy's band played -- a BrewPub, so they had 'HomeBrew' style beer -- the sort of stuff that I make. biggrin

Also, I really do like that you reduced the size of the banner a bit. The other is a bit long. I'll hold off changing my sig until you have a chance to make those changes ... if you'll be kind enough to do so. Meanwhile, I think I hear my wife callling me from the bedroom. devilish

Cheers.

Re: ATTENTION: HomeBrewers team members

Hi Bill,

Here you go then with the changes you requested! smile

[img]http://sig.sx.am/3n9.png[/img}

I thought i'd move the stats around so that your points and results are at the top followed by the CPU time. As i have done in the PCR banners. cool

Have a look at the other one to see what i mean.

I have given you plenty of space to expand on the stars and stats so you shouldn't have anything overlapping.

I hope you like it. wink

============================

Next thing is have you tried the enhanced BOINC yet?? wink

Cheers

V_R cool

Thanks, V_R. It's perfect, and I really like the way your moved the points to the top line. I've redone my sig file now so that I think it looks a lot more professional. The green 'thing' in the corner is a hop cone, used for hopping beer.

As for BOINC, I'm having trouble with it on the only computer I've where I've installed it; messages on the BOINC manager indicate that my computer is having some sort of problem communicating with WCG. Haven't had time to try to fix it, and now I've lost several days of crunching because of it. I'll probably just uninstall it and go back to UD.

Thanks again.

Cheers.

Re: ATTENTION: HomeBrewers team members

Hi Bill

Yeah that looks very good, even if i do say so meself! biggrin

Its a perfect fit, and the colours go well together. I dont like it when it looks too 'busy' with text everywhere it takes the attention away from the stats.

Do you want the set up for it?

If you need any help with BOINC you can have a read of this here.
This is also worth a read
Ady and myself have a very good understanding of BOINC, if you have any questions then just ask. cool

See you around
