O.P. RE: For goodness sake, extend the signature length!
Mine is 366 bytes. That kills off the loading time argument ![[Image: zippyescopeta.gif]](http://shoutbox.menthix.net/images/smilies/zippy/zippyescopeta.gif) .

RE: For goodness sake, extend the signature length!
I agree, the limit should be increase.
I hate it when people use yep.it or similar services to make their links shorter so that they can put more stuff in their sigs.
I want to know where a link will send me before clicking it, not just see some non-sense stuff.
People also use yep.it for images, which just sucks.
Firefox can't show the filesize of the image.

I don't see what goodness could come from longer signatures

Be creative with what you got is my motto..
More characters in sigs means most people (granted not all) will make their sig rediculus longer with nonsense anyways.

RE: For goodness sake, extend the signature length!
Some forums i go to have a limit of like 2mb per sig 
The char limit shouldn't even be there IMO. Just make it so it cant stretch the page in anyway.. |

This forum has an anti-stretch fix, so there's no problem with that. But that's not the point.
Another forum I go to has a 1024 char limit, but less than 100kb (for images). It's okay if you want to color each letter differently, but many people abuse it to add lines and lines of needless text.
Granted, their mods will never compare to our mods (*washes tongue*) but still, such character limit is problematic and, like Cookie said (*washes tongue again*) people need to be creative with what they've got.

I say if the text that is too long is in a [img] tag, then it should be ignored . |
