Signature Size Limits

Recommended Posts

Would it be possible to set rules on how big pics can be in sigs, or how many lines of text they can be? I dont mind some, but there are some sigs that take up nearly half a page on my browser. Other forums I've been to have had sig limits.

Ok, i've been considerign this one myself. Hoping people would self regulate and I wouldn't have to come across as even more of an asshole than many folks think I am already...(it's ok, who says you have to like me? pirate.png )

But i think we are going to have to set some limits soon if people don't do it themselves. A one line post with half a page of Sig. crap is getting out of hand.

I was just about to post this, then saw someone else made it.

I am using a 22inch monitor and some of these sigs cover half my screen. 1 or 2 quotes would be fine but there comes a time when you need to cut some out.

Lets play it like powerball. You can only get 1.

+1 but 3 is reasonable if they are small


3 may be reasonable, but honestly, you dont need 3 quotes in your sig. Just pick the one that you like the most and call it a day. Its not like people are reading your sig quotes all the time anyway.


JD's sig size is what should be the limit. It takes up almost no space. So I guess that is what, 3 1 line quotes and you are done.

well..i guess I could set something in the CP is folks aren't going to be reasonable on their own....

ok..did some looking, it appears there is a 10k limit for sigs. I could cut that in half and see what happens? pirate.png

I was thinking something along the lines of setting a max size for pics and how many lines of text Also, if you're using a pic thats at the max size, how many lines of text. the pics dont bother me, unless they are huge.

iamscott, yours is fine by me

I think pics are fine, but as ryno stated ones like the kurt cobain sig are just too big, I would say figure out how big 4 lines worth of quotes is and then take a pic and see what fits in that size, any combo of quotes and pics larger than 4 lines should be changed. By no means am I trying to bash anyone, just my 2 cents.

is that better for mine?
I deleted one and changed font so it appears smaller...it would be solely JD, but the one I just couldn't resist...It remains until he gives me one to replace it with

cut it to 3 and you will be fine. It still takes up a 1/3 of a page.
