Hi all,
We have noticed a number of signatures are becoming enormous and for people on slower connections it's selfish having to load up a load of images when all they want to do is read some text.
So as for now signatures which are inexplicably big will be removed with no prior warning, if replaced a temporary/permanent ban maybe enforced.
New sig rules will come into place on the release of V2, this will help people know what can be in the sig and what can't, what size etc.
There is no need to fill up half a page with a sig, just keep to common sense.
Cheers guys

Well I like Henry and he is a superb player in a general point of view. and Arsenal is also equally my favorite team. so is it a problem for me to have henry in my sig??
also i want to convey thru the sig that he deserves the Euro playa of tha year.

No!, we don't care what you have in your sig (within reason), it's just the size that's all from looking at it for the moment your signature is fine

No, yours is probably fine.

Besides, once the sig is cached, it's loaded instantly (even on dial-up).

Is there a ban on sig changes at the moment or something? Tried to change mine a few times to something similar, or even smaller, than my current one, bt it always says it's too big..

Talk about it.

We've got avatars as large as 3.81 MB (yeah, you, Kurt, and Mishe too, LOL) and there's a pesky little limit on signatures. When I was on dial-up it took me ~19 minutes to download 3.81 MB, hehe. That's that, but then you can't even put five very small images as signatures (as in signature bars). I've been through the same boat, you're now in Kurt - it always said it's too big.
O Mike, where art thou!

His sig/avatar say some 'heavy' things.

Literally speaking, of course. Anyway, I want these limits to be extended or removed altogether (obviously unless someone puts up a 1000px signature), because well I've got some really special signatures that are waiting in the wing, some awesome GIF animations, and more. And being the head of the HR department here in the forums, I have to speak my mind.

Plus, once the image is downloaded once and cached, it loads instantly every time after that.

Why can't I attach a signature that's no more than 300px wide without getting a "too big/wide" warning, while there are ginormous signatures across the board here (Dracoris' immediately comes to mind)? It's pissing me off.

I thought from memory it was something to do with the filesize of the signature, i.e. it's too large a filesize.
Though, I did have some issues when I recently updated mine, and that's a size of 375px x 150px therefore the limitations of signatures may have been adjusted through the admin control panel recently. The people who have them at the moment I imagine haven't updated them for a while.

Hmm - just had a look at this. The limits are currently 150:500:200 (SIZE(kb):WIDTH(px):HEIGHT(px)). If anyone has a sig that falls outside of either of these values, then it's probably because they had it before these came into effect (not sure when this was - quite a while ago though!).

Djeez. EVERYONE can make that conclusion within a second, but isn't a bit unfair, stupid, not consistent, etc. if some still can keep those big sigs while others can't? Either one of the two needs to adapt to the others.

Call it a 'perk' for being an old-school Milanfan member.
However, in the interest of keeping the peace (as I understand sig's are a hot topic

) - this will be changing soon(ish).

400x150 at least.
Still that's your decision to make

^^ Weird. Any chance you could upload the sig to something like imageshack.us and send me the link?
acid911
Sep 6 2010, 03:54 PM
Not nearly as weird, Mike.

Something similar happened to me an year or so back, and various images of various sizes and dimensions did not go through. All were withing the acceptable limits. I dashed it all, and went ahead with my current signature (the day Maldini retired), which surprisingly was accepted.
Luckily, for a guy who changed signatures almost once a week, I've decided to stick with this one for all eternity. But anyway, it would be good if you can spare a few minutes and look into things, maybe there is some sneaky setting in the Admin panel that's causing the trouble!?
m1ke
Sep 6 2010, 09:55 PM
I'm almost certain there's a problem, but if I can't replicate it, it's difficult to fix. If someone could link me to a sig that they've tried to use (and got an error), that would be great.
