Does anyone know how to make your username sparkle like mine? I have a forum I'm testing out and I want to use the effect on my name in the forum. Any takers?

Re: [VBulletin] Sparkle Name Effect?

It's CSS and HTML.

Go into your admin cp,
user groups
edit the one you want.
HTML markup ( btw i cant remember exactly by memory)
Code:
<span style="background: url(images/backround9.gif)"><b><font color="#339966">
First side

Code:
</font></b></span>
Second Side
Upload the attachment in the /images file on your server.

Well the most important part of this is the GIF image, of course. Also, don't use <font> tags, they're going out of business, per-say.. So are <b> tags.. You can do it all in a <span>, instead.

PHP:
<span style="font-weight:bold;color:#336699;background: url(images/backround9.gif)">
/* Text Here */
</span>

Re: [VBulletin] Sparkle Name Effect?

You just have to find different color sparkles around the internet.

Hmm, where would you suggest I check? I didn't find much at vBulletin.org.

I'm trying to find the sparkles in white.

Well I tried what Tyler said, and it redirects all of the numbers, whether it be 1, 9, or 9999. Maybe it was just a glitch on my browser's end, but I'm pretty sure it's because there's only one sparkle image. Not sure though.

You can edit the GIF image in Adobe Image Ready and change the Hue. Image Ready should conserve the animation. Just goto 'Image'->'Adjustments'->'Hue/Saturation' to change the hue.

[I'm unsure about the last option, but it contains the word 'Hue' somewhere in there]

That would be the easiest way to change the color.

Could always make your own as well. No reason not to be unique.

The problem is, I don't know how to do that. I want white sparkles. XD

Also, thanks to the person who posted those other sparkles. :love:

Care to share how the background-color declaration in CSS would change the colors within a GIF image? Well, it won't, anyway..

Back to the OP,

Do you have ImageReady? You can just open 'Hue/Saturation' again and play with it. Drag the 'saturation' bar all the way left to remove all of the color [In other words, to make it white-&-black instead of color. Or you can intensify with 'contrast'. Of course, 'Hue' is the color scope. Then if it turns out too gray, you can adjust the brightness. Or if you're lazy you can add a color overlay filter to the sparkles.. That color would be white, lol :wink:

Wrong, it's to be done in ImageReady.
