The shadow is made with images which is why you need the white background.

i think it's great.
thanks.

i set it in its own table with a css border so that it would look good with the beige background i have.

I like it too! Can this be used on pages other than getinfo? I run a construction type of forum where we could use this to allow members to post their business card. Also would it be difficult to add a field to the user profile for instance "company services" and have the contents (user supplied) be inserted onto the business card instead of a default comment?

Great work

Greg

very easy to modify, however it wasn't designed with "stretching" in mind, which means that all of the outer images are a set size, so you'll have to make certain all of your options fit inside of that current setup.

superb

I like this very much, but i've been asked if it can be altered to be used as a signature for members which would be displyed at bottom of their post, which they can alter the text, if its possible could someone guide me.

go to modify templates, choose the style you want to change, select postbit templates and then postbit_signature. erase everything in there and insert
now this is the original size... i haven't changed the images at all. it'll be pretty big for a signature. also, you'll want to go into the postbit template and make certain to align the table that holds the signature, so that it's either left or right aligned (depending on how you want it to look in your postbit). also, you'll want to limit the amount of text that can be used for a signature, as well as limit line breaks (carriage returns), as this will disrupt the tables which house the images (the edges) and it won't look right.

you've got a good idea though... interesting.

*edit*
had to correct the avatar info for it to display properly in the postbit. tried it out and it looks pretty tight man. only thing is, it's too big. is getting me thinking about how i want my postbit to look though. hmmm...

btw.
make certain to change the location of the images folder as need be.
you can change images/ to { imagesfolder}/ (without the space). that's what i have.

Thanks will give it a go

hey filburt1, thought you might like to see what your inspiration brought about!
told you that i thought this idea for a business card was good, and i couldn't let go of the notion of putting it into the postbit somehow.
well, i fooled around, did some scanning, slicing and designing, and this is what i've got so far.
business card postbit

thanks for the inspiration buddy... i never would have thought of something like this on my own... and i think it looks great.
everythings stretchy, as i used mainly css for the background images.

hope you like it.
again, thanks.
