ENTRIES CLOSE APRIL 13​

Well I'm looking at the "last post by" in this forum and seeing that half of them are by me. This forum needs some activity, so what better than to start up a contest! I will take the first 10 to say they wish to join for this contest or I will start the contest on the 16th of April (GMT-5).

NOTE: This is a signature contest. Past rules from signature contests still apply. In case you forgot them...

»You may only submit one entry.
»You can change your submissions up to a day before the poll is posted in General Discussion.
»All other text is permitted.
»Custom brushes are permitted.
»Custom Fonts are permitted.
»C4Ds are allowed.

Judging will be held by anyone who votes in the poll that will be posted in general discussion.

The theme for this sig contest is EXPLOSIVE!, so make sure that you have some awesome light effects. It does not have to be a firey explosion, it could be a burst of light, a burst in a pipe, or even one of those cute little banelings popping on something. Be creative!

I'm still a n00b gfxer, but entering nonetheless.

lol. you liar.
In the site i'm in (SigResource) You've just upped to inspiration-level sigs.

As for me, my team (Infinite Recursion) is currently taking on the big dogs of SigResource in a team battle on April 1st...

I'll get the tag done for this contest after that.

Jonadrain, you've posted work here before and I like it.

I figured I should join because I sorta helped (with my awesome Pivot post) with the massive popularity that the GZ had awhile ago.

Question, are the Sigs suppose to be secret about who made them, or are we allowed to share?
 
General chit-chat

  • No one is chatting at the moment.
  • Varine Varine:
    How can you tell the difference between real traffic and indexing or AI generation bots?
  • The Helper The Helper:
    The bots will show up as users online in the forum software but they do not show up in my stats tracking. I am sure there are bots in the stats but the way alot of the bots treat the site do not show up on the stats
  • Varine Varine:
    I want to build a filtration system for my 3d printer, and that shit is so much more complicated than I thought it would be
  • Varine Varine:
    Apparently ABS emits styrene particulates which can be like .2 micrometers, which idk if the VOC detectors I have can even catch that
  • Varine Varine:
    Anyway I need to get some of those sensors and two air pressure sensors installed before an after the filters, which I need to figure out how to calculate the necessary pressure for and I have yet to find anything that tells me how to actually do that, just the cfm ratings
  • Varine Varine:
    And then I have to set up an arduino board to read those sensors, which I also don't know very much about but I have a whole bunch of crash course things for that
  • Varine Varine:
    These sensors are also a lot more than I thought they would be. Like 5 to 10 each, idk why but I assumed they would be like 2 dollars
  • Varine Varine:
    Another issue I'm learning is that a lot of the air quality sensors don't work at very high ambient temperatures. I'm planning on heating this enclosure to like 60C or so, and that's the upper limit of their functionality
  • Varine Varine:
    Although I don't know if I need to actually actively heat it or just let the plate and hotend bring the ambient temp to whatever it will, but even then I need to figure out an exfiltration for hot air. I think I kind of know what to do but it's still fucking confusing
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Maybe you could find some of that information from AC tech - like how they detect freon and such
  • Varine Varine:
    That's mostly what I've been looking at
  • Varine Varine:
    I don't think I'm dealing with quite the same pressures though, at the very least its a significantly smaller system. For the time being I'm just going to put together a quick scrubby box though and hope it works good enough to not make my house toxic
  • Varine Varine:
    I mean I don't use this enough to pose any significant danger I don't think, but I would still rather not be throwing styrene all over the air
  • The Helper The Helper:
    New dessert added to recipes Southern Pecan Praline Cake https://www.thehelper.net/threads/recipe-southern-pecan-praline-cake.193555/
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Another bot invasion 493 members online most of them bots that do not show up on stats
  • Varine Varine:
    I'm looking at a solid 378 guests, but 3 members. Of which two are me and VSNES. The third is unlisted, which makes me think its a ghost.

    I bitch about Xenforo sometimes but it really is full featured you just have to really know what you are doing to get the most out of it.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    It is just not easy to fix styles and customize but it definitely can be done
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I do know this - xenforo dropped the ball by not keeping the vbulletin reputation comments as a feature. The loss of the Reputation comments data when we switched to Xenforo really was the death knell for the site when it came to all the users that left. I know I missed it so much and I got way less interested in the site when that feature was gone and I run the site.

    People love rep, lol
