View Full Version : Who wants a box-drawing name?

So yeah, like the one in my signature, and you can have one, too!
Provided I have the time and the ability to figure out the letters, I'll do requests.
Just don't be surprised if it piles up, because these can take a while to figure out.
Edit: Apparently the forum is retarded with spaces. If you have a name with a space or underscore, I'll just break it up based on spaces. Or by word if you want.
My name is too short for that to be worth doing.

I'll go for one.
Feel free to shorten it though.

Edit: I just want to point this out: the stuff I'm putting around the Ts is to preserve the alignment. If you use a fixed-width font, I can remove those. The box drawing characters are already all the same width, so it shouldn't impact the look much.
Edit Edit: Unless there are actual spaces in between words, because the forum only accepts one whitespace character in a row, and removing the spaces between words on longer names might make the forum break them.

I'm using Google Chrome :cool:. Firefox lags in youtube videos and stuff :(. I don't like Explorer because of it's lack of plugins, most importantly, mouse gestures.

If any of you is truly worried about differences across browsers, you could easily screenshot and crop the relevant portion and sig it that way.
