Questions about the WBO

I'm pretty sure it's supposed to signify that the user is hidden, but his or her name is still visible to you because you're a mod.

Haven't you always had to login first...?
Yeeeep, Insomniac is correct.


I don't ever recall having to log in to view it, even when I was a standard user ..
I think he means as a guest.
Oh, then that has been there for ages.
I guess I just hadn't been logged out for a while then
Hey everyone!

I'm Dystrox, I just joined WBO yesterday!
I wanna create a thread but I don't know how to create one.
Can anyone help me?
Well first make sure you read the rules for posting, Then choose a topic your creations, media, video games more. Make sure we only need the thread and search before you make.
When you're in a section, there is a "New Topic" button below the banner, on the right; but be sure to follow what galaxy blade wrote as well.
what was the banner before Samurai Pegasus was released?
Big Bang Pegasis, if I remember correctly.
so I'm guessing it was Galaxy Pegasis before Big Bang? I was thinking maybe we could change the logo to L-Drago wait Dark Knight Dragooon I wonder what the banner looked like with Storm,Galaxy,and Big Bang pegasis on it?
I'm sure you could find the old banners going through some old news forum threads.

Hm, I think there was no Galaxy .. I remember when I joined it was Storm and then Big Bang to Samurai. Edit: Yes I was correct.

Pegasis is the WBO's 'mascot', so that wouldn't be appropriate.
Also if i remember, Kai-V once said she could only use the Pegasis as the mascot because she does not have the copyright for the others.
she doesn't? I didn't know that either...

What ? This is not even a matter of copyright : we do not share the copyright of any Beyblade picture, but we are not making any money from it, so we do not need any special permission to use an image in a site banner.

So no, I never wrote anything like that.
ay yie yie this is how rumors start... anyway how do you know exactly when the text in you sig is over 500x200 pixels?

Wah wahCrying I wont a dragon Bey to be mascot they look so much cooler
Then just make a mascot for yourself.

We've used Pegasis for like... Forever.

Lazer, it's pretty simple, a line of text is usually 10 px tall, well, usually (based on what my ICT teacher taught me). So you just add 10 for every single line of text (unbolded, etc.) to the amount of pixels your signature is.

Or just use spoilers to avoid it completely.

It has been determined that the text contained in your signature dose not count toward your 500 x 200 px limit. (only images)

..... so go crazy.
Haha, sorry Kai-V now i get what you mean. We can use any picture, as long as you don't make money of it.
Not exactly.
You also do not use pictures made by other fans (fanart). At least not without their permission.
All in all, you don't really use pictures made by someone else (not intended for use by the public) without giving them credit.
Yeah i know that too, I could use the, Pokemon, Yu-Gi-Oh and Beyblade one but not one that say you made. You also can't use any of my gfx lol. Lets stay on topic.

ok thanks Smile that will really help alot sometimes when I'm editing my sig it get's deleted cause it's too big not my sig picture but everything else now I know how too keep track of how big it is and @thebishop really? because I typed too much text and got my signature deleted... wait a sec it was the smilies I had that made it too big... oh and is it true that if you say put a picture that's say 700x500 pixels in a spoiler would that mean that the picture doesn't count twoards the amount of pixels?

Can we please get a moderator to confirm this, Does Text in your signature add to your total pixel limit of 500 x 200 pixels? (my pet peeve) - because if this is true, as i have mentioned before there are MANY members beyond there limit.

A line of text adds 18 pixels using the default text size on this particular forum

Lazer - currently including text your signature spans 500 x 246 Pixels

Even Cannons signature is improperly sized 400 x 201 Pixels
