ryno Posted May 18, 2008 Share Posted May 18, 2008 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mushrat Posted May 18, 2008 Share Posted May 18, 2008 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? )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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scheetz Posted May 19, 2008 Share Posted May 19, 2008 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnny_D Posted May 19, 2008 Share Posted May 19, 2008 Although I love Riviet's signature... I think we need to limit these. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can only get 1.+1 but 3 is reasonable if they are small3 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.

mushrat Posted May 19, 2008 Share Posted May 19, 2008 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? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mushrat Posted May 19, 2008 Share Posted May 19, 2008 Could also disable pictures... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryno Posted May 19, 2008 Author Share Posted May 19, 2008 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjdx88 Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 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.Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SafeSearchOff Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 i agree, the massive quoting is getting out of hand.DEF. dont eliminate pix tho, we have to show off our humor and GFX SKILLZ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r1v3th3ad Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 is that better for mine?
