Is it just me or are some of the signatures on the forum becoming larger and larger?
Some of them are even filling 75% or more of my screen (at a ratio at 1280 : 1024)...
Am I the only one finding this disturbing or...

No, you're not the only one.
Daniella's for example is filling my whole screen.
This isn't really necessay, imho.

http://www.india-forums.com/forum_posts.as...72836&TPN=4 No need to read anything - just scroll through and look at some of the siggies there. It's absolutely crazy trying to read posts there sometimes! For my part, until I start having that problem here, the signature thing isn't really going to bother me.

Huge signatures are only allowed in the minority of forums and I don't care what the people in this india forum do with their thread space.
They make you scroll an eternity until you can read the essential text of the posts itself. It should also be a matter of sanity.

Is my sig OK? Oo'

In some forums I saw that the sig size is limited..... I personally would put everything I love and I feel in my sigs, but I thought it would be irritating to have huges sigs so I was limiting myself....
But I think this matter is a bit overreacted in the tone of complaining about huge sigs....

needz moar nekkid ppl

Not my fault i blocked images from popping up on Firefox so i can't see

I was supporting your point, but saying that the kind of size apparent in IF is the sort of size where some kind of line has to be drawn. I think most members here are pretty much fine in terms of siggy sizes.

@Nienna

LOL. I thought at first it was Jem xDD

Yeah well, I don't use Firefox.


Exceptions prove the rule.

Nuff said.

I get that a lot

Exactly my point...

If everyone's sig was huge it would really suck. A couple larger ones here and there don't bother me, as long as it's only a few. After a while it gets unwieldy.

I second that. And I don't usually read people sigs at all (unless there's something über cool quotes from me :P)

Is there a way of hiding people's signatures so they don't show up in posts? This may solve the problem of those who don't want to scroll for ages, or are on limited bandwith and don't want to waste it.

No, for what I know there isn´t a way of hiding sigs. But we do ask from administration to please control the size of sigs because its boring to have to scroll so much to read posts.

There is no specific rule on sig sizes, we just ask you to use common sense. If this doesn´t work, we´ll have to get more strict, but I reaaaaaaaaaally don´t think there´s a need for it.

In this case, size does matter.

But that blocks all pictures?

Hope this helps.

You can add exceptions (Sites you trust).

The one and only way.

how come [img] tags won't work sometimes?

Bre, it looks like at the end of the code, [/img], the end bracket isn't there....try that and see.

Just found this topic and ideed some have signatures that are WAY to big... or have way too much stuff in their signature

I kno many forums that limit what can bu put in the signature, either simensions of images or the amaout of characters that can be in a signature

We try controlling this through common sense, asking the members to use medium sized sigs...

Never heard of that either..... must be some rare thing i heard rumors about.....

I CAN HAZ DOWNLOADZ OF "C0MM0N S3NS3" PLZ?!?! KTHXBAI!

I think my Great Grandad told me about that once...just a bunch of jibberish from a senile old man...

i used 2 hav a huge sig but fixed aftr sum complaints of "over-fangirlism"!

But whyyy,I loved scrolling 3 minutes to see all of the Khan pictures you had there

^^^

turned the sigs off again. now reading is more pleasant without distractions. sorry.

You can still make it smaller, Wifey, check out how the rest of our sigs are half of yours

What about mine? I'll trim it down a tad just to be safe.

Oh noes, all the epicness is gone =(

Your sig wasn't that bad, Whore Us.

Yeah,it was mostly text,I don't mind that.

Hurhur, I got rid of a couple of the quotes in mine, just to be safe ._.

You know, calling him that is kinda insulting. Not to Harris, but to the actual Egyptian God Horus.

But then again, maybe not *shuts up anyway*
