Sig height limit? by Salem on 02-12-2006 at 09:28 PM

Yes, as the subject says. Is there a limit as to how high/tall your signature can be? Because, as you can see i have a Messenger Status Image in my signature, but anything else that i add below it isn't displayed.

Why is this

# Avatars & Signatures: Large dimensions and file sizes are not allowed because they can affect the layout of forum pages. The rules for posts apply to avatars/signatures as well.

    * Maximum avatar width: 150 pixels.
    * Maximum signature dimensions: 590 pixels wide, 125 pixels high.
    * Avatar and signature images must work, and must load reasonably fast. New


I think there is a mod or something that stops it from displaying the rest

It's not mod that stops it from showing the rest, I think it gets cut off because the table for it is a certain size. (I think this is why.  But I know it isn't a mod.)

dz had a thread about it a long time ago, plus making it not scrollable etc, he went though a great deal to have it the way it is.

Sigs used to be outta control.  Thats why you have to learn to shrink all the images/text you want to fit in those dimensions now.  But yes, there is simply a limit, in answer to your question :P.  WDZ should expand it just a tad bit more. Same with the image limit, needs expansion, 2 is not that much, and especially since you already have to keep it within the dimensions.

I agree with this. I slight enlargement of the height limit will be nice. and the max of 2 images in the signature.

Why is it that there is a limit to the number of images if the height & Width are also limited? Surely a height & width limit should not require a limit to the number of images. Just what i think:P

cause the size of the signature (bytes) is also important :P

Plus, a lot of images is plain annoying, Your sig is not a blog or fotolog, you know :chrongue:

Oh ok, i see your point.

But i still think a slight increase is good.

i think its perfect the way it is, ppl with very large sigs annoy me so much because it takes away form whats truly important, the posts of ppl
