Multi sigs.... by Purity on 01-10-2005 at 11:58 PM

How does the admins feel abotu having more than one signature?


RE: Multi sigs.... by azn angel on 01-11-2005 at 12:00 AM

if you put more in there it would take up too much room and be cut off, they also let you only have 2 images in your sig


RE: Multi sigs.... by Purity on 01-11-2005 at 12:09 AM

No i was thinking of having 2 different ones, one on top of the other....


RE: Multi sigs.... by leito on 01-11-2005 at 12:10 AM

Well you could use random signature if you want to have more than one. use KSMAS, look at my sig, or search de Forums.


RE: Multi sigs.... by Purity on 01-11-2005 at 12:15 AM

Alright soudns awsome!


RE: Multi sigs.... by Geniuzzz on 01-11-2005 at 06:28 AM

I think the contents of the postings are more important than the sigs...

tbh i think the max of 2 pics on the sgs are few i would like to suggest the damins to put 3... like.. one for the "get firefox" style sigs another for whatpusle and the other for us...even if u can use the normal sig on the whatpulse .. its not the same :/ ah and could u raise the height?

Make your own php made sig then...

make your sig smaller (eg, why must the font be so big? While you clearly can read this textfont. You can make just the same nice looking avatar, but smaller. It doesn't need to be that big to look nice)



this is a forum, not a show-of-your-too-big-avatars-and-sigs-in-every-post forum. Like it is now, the sigs (together with the avatars) already take the most place in a post, while the sig/avy isn't even the important bit. Most people even don't write enough in there post to justify the big avatars....

eg: turn avatars and sigs off, and see how compact and pleasant a forum can be without all the crap.....

avatars and sigs help people to recognize the other members i rarely look at the name i just see the avatar only if i dont know the avatar i look at the username.. avatrs are useful, sigs ok not that useful but avatars are...

yeah, I know, but to be reconized they don't nessecairly need to be big. A small avatar/sig is as reconizable as a big one...


one of the things I mean: http://shoutbox.menthix.net/showthread.php?tid=34...d=360022#pid360022
Why must that avatar be so big? It takes a whole screen, while his post is actually 3 lines long. With a normal sized avatar at least 1 more post could've fitted in the screen...

Time for admins to put restrictions on avatars too, just like with the signatures? Width is logical (it should not mess up the page layout) but height...there aren't restrictions for that right now, or are there?

The maximum size of avatars is about 150x150 pixels. That means height is limited too. The rules say that large dimensions for avatars are not allowed because they can affect the layout of forum pages.
