Hi all,

I'd like some help with a small but annoying problem. As you can see the wording at the bottom of my signature is yellow. I put it that way but cannot remember how I did it and now need to change it to make it readable. Can anyone advise please?

Top left hand of the page, you'll see some tabs while logged in, ... click " profile " to access your ( yes, wait for it ) profile !

On the new page, you'll see a coloumn of options to the left, click the top ( ? ) one titled " Edit Signature "

You'll need to remove the : your message code that is around that line of your sig. Note the drop down menu. from which you can pick from all the colours if you want something other then black. It should all be coming back to you now, :p

Hope that helps.

Ignore Komokom. Here's what you need to do:

1.) Preheat oven to 425 F.

2.) Line a 9-inch pie pan with pastry dough.

3.) In a large bowl, toss the 5 cups of cherries, 1/4 cup corn starch, 2 tbs. flour, 1 1/4 cup sugar, 2 drops almond extract and 1 tbs. lemon juice.Spoon or mound into pie shell.

4.) Dot with the 1 tbs. unsalted butter. Wet pie edges with a bit of water.

5.) Roll remaining pastry to fit top of pie. Place on pie and press securely onto fruit and edges to seal. Trim edges and crimp. Cut slits for steam to escape. Brush top of pastry with 1 egg wash.

6.) Place pie on baking sheets and place on lowest rack in oven. Bake for 20 minutes, reduce heat to 375 F. and bake until juices begin to bubble through steam slits (about 35 to 45 minutes). Cool for 1 hour before serving.

7.) Send to me via UPS overnight.


Then, all problems with your signature will be solved.

The always helpful moderators. :rolleyes:

Komokom is correct. Just change the color in the tag from yellow, to say... Sandybrown, and it should look better.

OK, this is what I did. I got a very tiny paint brush and a small net. I baked the pie and left it near the open CD drive on my PC. When the little man who lives in my PC smelt the pie he came out to get some. I caught him in the net and gave him the tiny paint brush with instructions to change the colour on my signature. After some negotiation about the amount of pie he agreed.

So simple when you know how.

Thanks.

Fris, look what you've started! Can someone lock this now? (I think) He's fixed it.
