I’m kinda new here, but this sounds like fun. Count me in. I’m about to e-mail you a mouse-“written” signiture, as my computer is a bunghole and my scanner doesn’t work. It’s a bmp file since my computer also won’t let me use anything other than the “Paint” program it came with. If for whatever reason it doesn’t work, feel free to forge my name. If you want it to be like my real, hand-written signiture, make the letters big and loopy and overlapping to the point of being illegible. ---

Sign me up, tater! Don’t forget the “y”, please. Plus I usually capitalize the “r”. ---

tater, you are more than welcome to forge my name. People tell me I have distinctive handwriting, but they can’t describe _why_ it’s distinctive. I’m sure that’ll help you. 😉 ---

I’ll see if I can hunt a scanner for you… Can I have a few days? I know I’ll have one Wed. Ooooo! I just tried practicing it…much prettier than my real name…this may have to be done legally… ---

You can go ahead and forge my signature, too. The K needs to have fancy loops and the t-cross should be long, start low and go up as it moves to the right. ---

What ever it is sign me up, too. I haven’t got a scanner so youll have to forge mine for me. ---

You can use my name. Make sure the ‘B’ and the ‘T’ are huge, and the ‘y’ has a very long tail. Thanks! Rose ---

I wish I had a scanner. My screen name looks nicer than my real one. Please forge away. The “j” dangles and isn’t connected to the “a” and I use the cross-bar of the “t” to form the first “e”. Or whatever looks best to you… 🙂 ---

I tried to make a signature with my touch-pad, but the best of my efforts looked like it was written by a 5-year old with a shaking palsy. I don’t have a scanner, so forge my screen name. ---

Alas, my scanner is non-functional right now, and my hard drive is getting worse by the day (anyone notice my three-day absence? I didn’t think so). Please fake for me, tater! Make the first letter nice and big, and the rest legible. My handwriting is actually pretty okay. 😃 [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/ahem-i-need-help-with-a-special-project/41686.md?page=2) [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/ahem-i-need-help-with-a-special-project/41686.md?page=4)
