Do a search for posts by TrishasTalon, i've only seen her post once in the last year or so, but her sig is still up.

*updated* I just did a search for you, the tails are not in her sig, but i found a pic of them. You can still do a search, she still has a nice talon to look at emoji Here's the pic:

I'm sure you've heard of the other options like going all red or smoking the entire thing, but I just went ahead and backlit the sucker. Not as much light as I would've liked, but I can improve upon my design grealty and you can still end up painting it if you want.

What I think is really cool about it is that you remove the black paint from the letters and it's hardly noticeable in the day that anything's there. I'd post a better pic, but I'm truly lazy and I have to find a job here someday! emoji
