A word, if you please.

I have never been able to watch a forum grow quite like this one has, I remember when MonsterGamer.net received a mere 5 posts a day, or in that neighborhood. Now it is quite active, and flourishing.

Okay, enough wishy washy ****. I need to tell you guys about a rule that most forums have.

Sig limits. I'm sorry, but I can't stand to scroll halfway down a page because some people have 2 or 3 images in their sigs. Most forums have like a 2 image limit, and then size regulations. This is also helpful to 56K modem users, and I'm sure we have a few. I ask the management to limit the number of signature images, and the dimensions of said images.

I propose a 2 images limit, with a max area of 48,000 each. That means people can have 400x120px sig images, and 2 of them, if they are so inclined. There wouldn't be any requirement either, users could stretch or shrink their images, so long as they stay within the area limit....


Just an idea to help the overall aesthetics of the forums, and to help new users feel better about coming here.

Yes I agree Jusiko, it is annoying me too, with people having huge animated sigs which take forever to load and when people have 2+ sigs it does get annoying.

I think we should just cut it down to a max of 500x150, with only one sig and no huge animations.

Galoku, with these limits, you do realise that you won't be able to have that farscape sig, as it is pretty damn big.

i am thinking on cutting it down to 1 sig per person
i do have a limit, but if you had a sig bigger then the limit before i installed the hack, it lets you keep it.
but when you change it the limit take over. lol
with a limit of 468x120
i might lower it, just dont know on the size yet.

**************note******* *****
so with people with multi sig's please remove them to 1
