how can i make my lil ls sig smaller to be the same length as my bigger signature?

make a background picture with the same length as ur sig which is 350px then you go to the codes in .php and change it to fit your new lil banner

exactly which codes are those? i made the background pic. smaller, but then it won't show "to lvl up:" i looked at all the codes yet i can't figure out which one it is...

Question:

Can someone with no experience learn how to do these from reading this, or do you have to know a bit?

If not, I'll look it over tomorrow and give it a shot.

everything is there
you can do a lot with the info provided here
and once you understand what it means, its easy to customize

another useful guide looking forward to trying this out

thx
Paladin

I tried it out and uploaded it, but it doesn't show anything
must have done something wrong...

hi there which parameter do i have to change to "move" the exp bar up and left from the original ?

got it. read in the php-api.

if i follow ur guide following problem appears:

when i copy .htaccess into my folder it disappears and cause a internal server error 505

any idea how to fix it?
