Is having a sig really necessary? No
Is having that IP Address taking space necessary? No
Do people like bloating their sigs with information about themselves or homebrew creativity? Yes


that is the exact reason people use signatures, to show off how good they are with image creation and manipulation? i don't see what the problem is with increasing the sig limit by 25px?

What? No, that's not correct.

The limit for signature height is 125px, not 150px. The IP Address text has no effect on the signature size limit. It is not inside the signature <div>. However, removing the IP text would save a bit of space, space that could be used to justify increasing the maximum signature height limit.

No your not allowed to have 150px signatures because just look at mine, it is still getting cropped. I just made that crappy thing in paint, and it's just an example that were really not being able to use 150x400 signatures.

No, Sean, he means that the limit is still 125px. However, due to an issue with the CSS on Firefox it does show only like 114px of your sig.

The IP Adress does not take space from the sig nor cover it partially.

Hope that issue gets fixed and hope I lose some laziness in my life...
So, I guess you want me to try that CSS you posted, then? :p

.sigbody {
border-size: 0px 0px 0px 0px
What's that? I don't think it's a valid CSS property... O_o

Sure, that specifies bordes top, right, bottom and left size in one line.

Well it's the solution I've come up with, probably not perfect, but a quick try hardly ever is.

Late-edit: You were right, it's border-width, but now I doubt that 4-side setting is possible with border as it is in margin and padding. :^)

KeyStorm, don't you mean "border-width: 0px"?

Hack, hack, hack!

Will it be removed? Who knows...

:dodgy: I just removed the border property, as it seems useless. :p

Why would it be removed? O_o

BTW, I didn't even modify the signature template yet... :lazy:

It is. Border-top,-left,-bottom,-right are valid properties.
