Received an email from hwbot for those who have or want sigs:

The hwbot signature engine has been upgraded last night, and can now generate much nicer signatures that you can use on you website or forum.

Example default hwbot v2 signature (blue version):
http://www.hwbot.org/blog/wp-content/blue-sig.png

People using the old signature template will automatically switch to the new one tonight at 6PM +1GMT, unless you choose the "hwbot basic signature v1" in your profile settings to keep using the old one.

People who want to try out the new signature before tonight, or want to pick another color of the new signature, can do so by selecting a new template in their profile settings:
1. log in at http://www.hwbot.org
2. go to options > signature
3. select your preferred template

If you want a custom profile, please post your design in our forums:
http://www.hwbot.org/forum

Kind regards,
the hwbot crew

Shall we provide a BE's background to hwbot team? (like OCTeam) ..

[Snafu]

We can. Would the page header be big enough? It's 478x73 pixels

[sbinh]

Personally, I think that's perfect.

I think that would be great.

The one thing I dislike about the new sigs is the font. I think it's awful.

The fonts are much better then the original ones that where going to be used. Here's some specs they are looking for in sigs:

The image doesn't need to have the exact same size as the default hwbot logo, but it saves me some time.

It does need to be smaller (in kilobytes) though. default hwbot v2 sig: 11kb
