Under "My Settings" then "Signature," it's a button in the tool section.  I think like the 13th or 14th button from the left on the 2nd row.

Very cool!  Thanks!  Also, I can't quite tell.  Who is your avatar?  Looks like someone I do and don't want to mess with.  lol.

Also anyone have any idea where I can find a list of the colors possible?

To be honest, I wouldn't be surprised if you could put the hex code in there and get a color... which would mean ALL the colors....

 

Edit: Holy crap... I was right... Do you know what this means???

 

So put your bar together like this... [ progress=#83181b]71[/progress ]

 

Take out the first and last space. That as it sits gives you a maroon-ish color.

 

Go to this website http://www.color-hex.com/

 

Find your color code, it's going to be #XXXXXX

 

Copy and past it into the above bar code in place of the current #83181b spot, and save.

I must be blind (in not finding the bar of tools, both on IE or in Chrome - though, that information was from 2014), or somehow otherwise messing it up in other ways.

 

I've tried just typing in the square brackets with the progress tag, the value, and then the close progress tag, and all I end up seeing is the code I typed without any cool automatic formatting. Do I need to enable the BBC code/parsing somehow in my signature?

Since the forum updated the software the bb codes aren't currently working. They are trying to fix it, especially the progress bars.

[Davlamin]

Excellent; I was wondering if I was just losing my mind or if something else wasn't working.

 

I will then remain patient; thanks!

I really need to learn how to just scroll down and read all the thread before I go to my settings.

 

I was going through my settings for far too long!

There won't be one, this is beyond NF, it's the forum software.

Aww man! You have a clever solution. I just don't know how to do half a smiley face. I guess I have to round to an appropriate multiple. 

[Tanktimus the Encourager]

You can insert smiley faces in the edit signature section when typing.
