   Thought I'd start a topic for custom userbars people have created and want to share! Userbars are little graphics that people would post in their forum signatures to signal their interests and fandoms etc.

   Seriously I hated that userbar generator. It was so slow and difficult to use. Making one yourself is one of the greatest things you can do if you know how to do it.
