If anybod is interested in creating or using signatures similar to the one in my signature, here are some pretty simple directions.

Go to: dcsig.com
Click: Create an account
enter username, password, F@H user id, and our F@H team
(note: you do NOT need to put in your email address)
Click: add user

once logged in you will have the ability to choose a plethora of skins to use in your signature. Since you registered with your team ID and user ID your information is automatically entered into each individual skin.

Please keep in mind the Forum Rules .

You can then create your own skins or select one from the gallery. I Created my background in photoshop and then uploaded it to their site in order to use it as the skin. It looks like this:
mf%20sig.jpg

i then used the "Copy from Skin" function to copy all of the information from another skin directly into mine. I then spent a little time on colors, placement, and making it look good.

For a skin like mine:
dcsig_1728_4272.jpg

search for the "mac_forums" skin

also made this one:
dcsig_1728_4486.jpg

named "MF2"

dcsig_1728_3360.jpg

this is called "aximsite"

Please feel free to create your own skins and post them in this thread!

Does anyone actually fold? I'm not saying it's bad or anything, just wondering.

our team has 38 people and are currently working on 22 work units, not too bad considering some people stop folding and we are a mac forum not a folding forum.

there is a sticky at the top of this forum about Folding@Home you should check out, i am in the process or editing most of it though.
