Adding a post as your signature?!? - General Questions and Answers

Hello everyone. I was wondering if someone could please tell me how to use someone's post as my signature? I saw the funniest post I had seen in a while, but cant figure out how to have it display in my sig. All of my attempts have either not worked or just show the link. Thank you for any help!

Why not just quote the content of the post? I believe you can use the same markup as when you're replying and quoting a post.

That totally helped me figure it out. Thanks.

Or just cut and paste it?

[SOLVED] Default WM lockscreen slider position

Hi all.
I've searched and searched, but can't find the original files for the lockscreen slider. (I downloaded a modified one that moved it to the bottom, but I just don't like it!)
The 5 files I need are:
\Windows\LS_LockSlider.png
\Windows\LS_LockSlider_Dwn.png
\Windows\LS_LockSliderLong.png
\Windows\LS_LockSliderLong_Dwn.png
\Windows\LS_LockScene_800x480.cpr
Anyone who hasn't modified their lockscreen will have these files.
Would someone be kind enough to supply me with these?
Thanks a lot
I'm bumping this since adding the list of files that I need. Thanks
here ya go.

These are the default files - they don't move the slider down.
Do a search for the files to move it down. you simply copy them into the Windows folder.
can you give us the link for the files to move the slider down?

Well, either I can use the search tool, find the link, and then post it here for you, or you can use the search tool yourself.
Guess which one I've picked

I assumed that if you use these files you would have easy access to the link which we could find them.
Some people in here can be soooo rude, and just put a smiley face at the end. Well my friend good choice not being helpfull. And I ask myself, why did you spent time even replying to me and didnt copy paste the link which you may even have bookmared, no you just had to play smart!
I can smile too

If I'd had a bookmarked link, I would have pasted it. Don't start being rude to me - I wasn't being rude to you. I was only pointing out that you were being lazy. If you had asked me if I had a bookmarked link, I would have said no. You didn't. You asked me for a link.
After your rude response, I'm glad I didn't help you.

Dont wanna start a fight here! But your answer was a bit rude. Either way i searched and didnt find it, thats why I asked you. But you play with words and you use cheap excusses like this: " If you had asked me if I had a bookmarked link, I would have said no. You didn't. You asked me for a link.".
No hard feelings! Sorry I spent your precious time!

I made no excuses. I explained why I said what I said.
Anyway, don't start sentances with "Dont wanna start a fight here! But..."
That means you do. You're not getting one my friend. My answer was not rude - you just took it that way.
Please refrain from posting in this thread any more as it's already coming close to losing any real value to other users. It certainly shouldn't be bumped up the list by false and childish accusations.
Here's the link you asked for.

I couldnt possibly find it because it is in blackstone section.

Just a tip for future - if you're looking for something that isn't specific to the particular phone (like it's a windows feature, for example), it's worth doing the search on all forums, in "xda-developers" forum, not "xda-developers > Leo > Leo themes and applications".

Just for being cheeky you deserve this!!!
Evidently you have a problem with your eyes, or a problem reading, I noticed you joined in march anf you have a post count of 4, and you have made 4 posts here.
so the only thing i can deduce from that is that you are one of the trolls that strips this site of everything you can get your hands on for free and makes ABSOLUTELY no contribution at all.
It is also evident with this post you cannot be bothered to do F**K all for your self, including using google:
GOOGLE SEARCH FOR EXPERIMENT 13
GOOGLE SEARCH FOR XTRACT
Notice how what you are looking for is THE FIRST LINK!!!!
Also it seems you need reminded of the forum rules:

Why cant you just help? a lot of new posts you are the second poster with a smart ass remark. If your not the second poster by chance, you reply the same useless garbage that the 5 previous mod wannabess just posted. every single mis posted thread, every freakin one of them. this is hilarious.. Every thread i read that is questionable about location, you have to chime in and tell it. Do you think the mods need or even want your help? Do you not think they got the message already? Did the mods ask you to troll the forums and tell people to use the search button? That clogs the forums up more than the actual post you are complaining about. If you let the op know tactfully that his/her thread was in the wrong place that's one thing. But the way you do it, (not referring to this thread, most of your others though) after it's been done multiple times already is not needed and is actually pretty rude. Why may i ask do you do it? You can see the comments you make have just been made 5 times previously (not this thread, majority of your other posts). Just leave everyone alone until you become a mod then worry about it. Let me guess, how old are you? 14? check your posts, 85% of them are useless no help trolling. I know i'm the pot calling the kettle black, kind of.. just calm down a little please sir, let the mods mod. They do not need your input cluttering the forums (like mine) I have not yet heard them ask for help or ask for tattle tales. /pet peeve, sorry. Whats the difference? The difference here is i'll say this once and be done. What you say you do it a hundred times and dont stop.

Your entire response is the EXACT reason why there is a search button so every single topic does not require a thread. It keeps the forum cleaner and straight forward. If you wanna know any news or need to find out, go check Dan's twitter.

I hear you, I can see where you're coming from. But here's the thing. You have two choices as far as interacting on the forum:
1. You follow the important threads constantly, so you know what information is out there, and what is not. Then when you find some news, you can post about it in the related thread that's already there. If the news is huge and unrelated, you can start a new thread.
2. You follow casually, reading the latest pages of the top threads every couple of days. In this case, you can never be sure you have the latest information, and the unwritten rule is that you waive your right to post new threads about news.
Everyone else: Lay off, alright? He's been told off, and he was immediately repentant. That's enough.

[Q] Nested quotes?

Hey guys,
I keep running into this same issue over and over, so I was hoping someone can suggest a workaround or a fix:
When I'm trying to quote a post, which already has a quote of another post in it the site only keeps the last post i'm quoting, and removes the internal quote that post has in it. For all intents and purposes this doesnt work for me, because without keeping the original, nested quote my post loses it's meaning and it's impossible to tell what I'm talking about.
Does anyone know how I can fix this to allow nested quotes in my posts? Thanks in advance.

You can nest quotes with this forum's software, but you have to do it manually, which makes it a bit tedious. Easiest way is to open a new window/tab quoting the original post, copy it, then quote the second post that quotes the original post, and paste the original quote within the second quote. You'll have to move the [/quote] of the first quote to the end.
Replace {} with [], and
{quote=first post}blah blah blah{quote=second post}blah blah blah
{/quote}{/quote}
will give you
first post said:
blah blah blah
second post said:

Seems painful, and I wish XDA forum had that feature built-in....A lot of other of forums do, kind of surprising that the biggest nerdvanna on the net doesnt. I guess your suggestion is still better than nothing though, when you really need to keep the original quote, thanks. I think I got it down
