Signature Testing

Just so you know, you can see a preview of what your signature would look like if you used it right now on your my preferences page.

Wow O_o. I never noticed that. I've been trying to get mine to look nice, rather than embed itself in the page (like yours does) and fill in the date automatically with ~~~ or some variant of the number of tildes. Any ideas?

Hm, I'm not sure if you realize, but your current signature is going to show the current date constantly..
Putting your signature on a page allows you to update it on every talk page you've posted on at once. However, it can also be nice to make it all get inside of the signature field on your preferences page. I don't know exactly how to make the date work correctly using that method, though. Also, if you choose to do that, I suggest making your signature kind of small (not in appearance, in code), because it isn't always nice to go through huge blocks of code when editing talk pages.
I changed it back (it was fine before). That's exactly my point. Your signature looks like this: {{User:JulienDethurens/signature|date=00:13, 22 January 2012 (UTC)}}, whereas mine looks like this:
<div style="border-top: 1px dotted #AAA; color:#000000; font-size:10px; overflow: hidden;">([[User:Merlin11188|Merlin11188]] | [http://www.roblox.com/My/PrivateMessage.aspx?RecipientID=128839 Send Message] | [http://wiki.roblox.com/index.php/Special:EmailUser/Merlin11188 E-mail] |Wiki Writer) — 00:18, January 22, 2012 — UTC</div> . I'm trying to get mine to look like yours in the edit page.
