Signature Size Limit

Postby mmsven » Mon Aug 06, 2007 5:43 pm

Sigs are getting out of control, personally I don't want to see my whole page being filled up by 1 sig. The maximum length of a sig is now 700x150. And the same goes for text, if you have a picture with a height of 150 px then you may NOT have any text.

Anyone who has a sig larger then this will be warned and will get their sig removed.

Sorry to anyone who spent their time to make a sig picture which breaks these limits.

I'm all for restricting sig size (I contacted someone the other day asking them to shrink down thier sig size because it was so big), but I think a height of 150 is a tad bit restricting. Especially seing as how Divra's sigs are around 130 pixels themselves. This leaves only about two lines of text for people (like me :p) who like to show off... say, thier songs as well.

I think a 175 or 200px height would be better.

Goodbye everyone. It's been fun. I spent many many hours here on these boards and playing/contributing to FoF. Today I uninstalled my game and deleted all my files. I just don't have the time or interest anymore. I won't be coming back here anymore. I might show up in the IRC from time to time to chat. I regret nothing.

So long, farewell.

If you want to show off your songs, then dont do it in list format, and separate them with commas.

Agreed. Keep those sig sizes down! They're sigs, for crying out loud, and they're not supposed to be the size of an average post!

i fully back this topic, i actually prefer forums where no picture are allowed in sigs period, its the most annoying thing seeing some kids "hilarious" naruta parody picture 29 times while scrolling down one topic.

**** picture sigs

but since it's a game forum, sometimes it's nice to have dynamic signatures related to the game itself, showing data that the game sent, when you're tired of seeing people signatures, just turn them off in your options

I think this is great that there are some restrictions on how big your sig can and another forum that handles graphix and mostly signatures there I know the limits for pictures are 500x100 and It's also limited in size to 100kB.

Good stuff sven. Maybe some people will obey the rules and not but all those userbars and xbox live stuff in their sigs, eh?
If you can read this then you've gone too far.

-UPDATES-

The size limit is now 700x150

ONLY ONE PICTURE IS ALLOWED. I realized that resolutions effect the placement when theres more then 1 on it.

Opera has it as well. But nevertheless I am up to it too, my text signature with Jurgen is 145px high.
