New Features:
  • You can now select custom fonts and change the font size.Smile
Update (Dec 24th): My christmas gift to all ye faithful signature users:
  • Removed configuration property "max number of boxes"
  • Introduced configuration property "max width (pixels)".
  • Instead of showing multiple boxes for lists exceeding the configured max. number of lines, the system now renders one large box.
Update (Dec 25th):
  • You can now adjust the rounded corners of the signature boxes.Smile

The metrics (spacing/padding) are slightly off though for some of these fonts ... I guess I'll increase the cell padding a little bit.Smile

Another idea that I had while playing around with the fonts: I'll change the system so that you can configure several fonts (as a comma separated list). Then each time the system generates a new signature it randomly chooses one.

Thanks! Actually this was really simple - all I had to do was to install the fonts on the server. Java does the rest for me, I simply use the font name from the configuration to load the font.EmbarrassedWink

I meant the idea was genius. So often it is the simple things that others dont think of that make an idea great.

Could users request fonts or would that be asking for trouble?

Good idea if they could though...

These fonts are all from this website:

http://www.webpagepublicity.com/free-fonts.html

I'm not a lawyer, but I think these fonts are really free to use for anything. Feel free to request any of these fonts, and I'll install them.Smile

I'm not sure where to put this for most exposure (within the rules) but it was lost in "Just For Fun"

AS it performs a service for many PA Forum members I will include it here.
We need to create a Zone for forum services in a prominent position, maybe something for the new year's to-do list.
