New restrictions upon forum signatures - Samual - 10-23-2011

Hey everyone,

This is just a quick announcement to notify you guys of a change we're going to make to the signature system which will limit the amount of lines/sizes of images you can place there.

These new rules are:
  • Message size can be 1024 bytes long (previously was 255 bytes)
  • Signatures will be limited to 72 pixels high (4 lines of text max, one line is 18 pixels)
  • If an image is larger than 72 pixels high, it will be cut off and only display up until that limit

Of course we mainly did this because of complaints about some users having large and annoying signatures, and we feel that these limits are respectable for everyone and best serve the purpose of a good signature.

The changes will take effect on October 25th (in 2 days of this post) -- If you have any other recommendations or comments regarding this go ahead and voice your opinion. Big Grin


Thanks.

RE: New restrictions upon forum signatures - divVerent - 10-24-2011

Actually, no, but your sig is huge Smile you probably can fix it by joining lines though.

In case I would be digging anywhere, I trust in everybody's humourous capabilities to deal with the results of any of my excavations Angel

RE: New restrictions upon forum signatures - PinkRobot - 10-24-2011

I only need 0 lines for all my achievements!


RE: New restrictions upon forum signatures - Samual - 10-24-2011

Trufax: PinkRobot actually has achieved every achievement possible (even the achievement for achieving all achievements)


Wait.... how do you get the achievement for achieving all achievements BEFORE you've achieved it?

EXPLAIN YOURSELF PINK ROBOT! >:O

...strange, my humor detector gives me an error message. Huh

I won't pay you back by removing my positive rating from you too, though. Totally not my style Big Grin


RE: New restrictions upon forum signatures - kojn^ - 10-24-2011

Oh no you misunderstand..I was not at my PC today so was unable to enter the obligatory -1 red comment!


RE: New restrictions upon forum signatures - Halogene - 10-24-2011

Oh, so I still get a -1 from you as exchange for the +1 you gave me before? Oh my, the suspense...

Edit: When did this thread go off topic btw?
