''politics'' is pretty much a racist caricature of a Jewish guy.

Maybe?
There's only 6 actual lines of text, but with all the textboxes and horizontal lines, I'm not sure how those add up.

Have you ever seen a sig with nine spoiler tags in it? You have now.

Overly long, overly garish, and generally in poor taste, stylistically.

And just so I'm not accused of puppet-trolling, this is Kenny.

Uhh, that would also violate the eight-lines rule, would it not?

I'm sure this is nine lines, correct me if I'm wrong.

As is, sure. I would think that some of the spoiler tags could maybe be nested - or perhaps a few spoiler tags could be changed to Title Text within a single spoiler or two.

The float tags (mixed with the center align tag) could also be used to condense the 9 spoiler tags to fewer lines:

1
2
3
7
8
9
4
5
6


For anyone seeing the condensing of those spoiler tags into 3 lines - versus 9 - here's how the coding works:

Code: Select all
[floatleft][spoiler=1]1[/spoiler][spoiler=2]2[/spoiler][spoiler=3]3[/spoiler][/floatleft][floatright][spoiler=7]7[/spoiler][spoiler=8]8[/spoiler][spoiler=9]9[/spoiler][/floatright][align=center][spoiler=4]4[/spoiler][spoiler=5]5[/spoiler][spoiler=6]6[/spoiler][/align]


Obviously, rename the spoilers to whatever you want them to say and fill in the blanks accordingly. My coding recommendation would be to have each of the spoilers on a different line to start with - makes it simpler (for me at least) to read the code and make sure it says what I want it to say - and then condense them down after you're done. If you leave carriage returns between the spoiler tags in the float coding - even if there are no blank lines in the coding - it will add an extra carriage return to your message. (This is why the Preview function is everyone's friend.)

And now .... I'm thinking that I should add details on the floattext to the coding side of things in the Technical FAQ. *adds to to-do list*
