Please upload to your own hosting space as I will probably forget and delete them at some point
Do you mind if I tweak one to add my name and things on??

That looks nice. I know Eithne is pretty busy, you may want to PM her cuz I don't know if she'll be back to read this soon.

They are amazing and yes, much prettier than the actual dragons from the cave, the unfortunate part is that they don't get "views" for your eggs. I'm thinking about use the MySpace bulliten board for that though.

Thank you for doing that Eithne.


Just a reminder to all that are using Eithne's sigs - You are only allowed one line of text with them in the size that she has posted them. If you are using them in conjunction with another sig and reduce the size, the combined file size of your signature must be no larger than 30K.

I agree that you should probably PM her. The file size on that is 51K, so if she does agree it would have to be resized to be no larger than 30K.

I PM'd her before I posted the question in here, just to make doubly sure! i wont use anything till I get permission to do so! Adding the 5 letters of text sure put alot on the file size! Oh well!!

Twstychk~ You may want to check out dragonspam! Works wonders!

You can add your name as long as you are not claiming it as your work.

It's sad that the dragon eggs had to go, but I was getting annoyed with the TCS load times and I have cable internet!

I whipped up a new sig with dragon button. Hopefully my little green egg will still get enough clicks/views to hatch.


Eithne's dragon sig is very pretty!

Here's what I did-
I googled 'dragon clip art' and found dragon that I liked on a site that said it's OK to use it, shrinked it, put it on photobucket, & put it in my sig with the Click Link. Is that OK?

My guess is that since everyone was using the same links with the eggs/dragons that the forum was slowing down from bandwith problems.

Both solutions look good, and I've clicked and "viewed". Thank you all so much for your cooperation, because it appears to have speeded up TCS loading times.

I have a question, though. When I view your dragons, I just click on an egg or hatchling. Do the "adult" dragons still need views?

i don't think so. just going to the scroll to see & click the little ones should be enough views for the adults. i've never intentionally requested views or clicks for my adults, & they seem to be doing ok.
thanks!

Jcat, I'm not here very often, but every time I come the site seems very very slow and I have DSL. It is still the dragon caves and eggs that are slowing things down or is it something else?

We will be changing servers soon. Hopefully that will take care of the lag time people are seeing.

I just got a message to remove the dragon egg from my signature, but I don't have a Dragon Cave egg in my sig. I found a free graphic of an easter egg and used it as a link to my Dragon Cave scroll. It's the same as others have posted as links.. and it's actually even smaller.

Sohni, the moderator in question has replied, I believe. What you're doing is ok, but it had to be clarified to avoid confusion. Thank you for understanding.
