---- The same as reregister_sign, except caller defines the textures. Note, there is a greyscale version of the sign,
---- called "mcl_signs_default_sign_greyscale.png" and "mcl_signs_sign_greyscale.png" for optional use in the textures directory.
----
---- modname: optional (pass "" or "false" to ignore), for use with other mods to
---- allow the creation of a sign from the mod's wood (if installed).
----
---- _name: the sign's name suffix, such as "_dark" or "_red", etc., appended to "wall_sign" or "standing_sign"
----
---- tiles: the texture file to use for the sign.
----
---- color: color the texture file to use with this color. Use white (#FFFFFF) to negate the color,
---- and just use the texture as is
----
---- inventory_image: the texture file to use for the sign's display in inventory.
----
---- wield_image: the texture file to use for the sign's weilded (in hand) object.
----
---- inventory_image: the image used for in-inventory and in hand.
----
---- ttsign: the tool tip of the sign that gets translated. Shown when the mouse hovers the inventory sign.
---- For example: the basic, default oak (wood) sign is just "Sign"; and a spruce sign would be "Spruce Sign"
