O.P. New signature size limit
There is now a CSS-based automatic size limit on signatures. All signatures higher than 125 pixels (this was voted on by the staff and elite members) or wider than your browser window will be cut off. You can see an example in my current sig.

Profiles will still show the entire signatures.

Also, there's a new signature separator as I posted in a T&T thread a few days ago. :p

You can post comments or problems in this thread. I'd be interested to know if everything works right in Mozilla... I've only tested Opera 7 and IE 6.

RE: New signature size limit
Everything seems to work fine under Mozilla Firefox 0.9.3, the new signature separator works fine (even if I don't like it :dodgy: :refuck:) and your signature scrolls fine (one thing though: you said in T&T that scrollbars sucked, but how do you tell if there's something more as it is right now?).

how many times did I say the words "signature" and "fine"? :lol:


EDIT: Your sig doesn't scroll in IE.

In IE it doesn't cut off as much, in my firefox i can't see any of the writing just under your pulse sig. Ie shows about half of your writing and ":P" emoticon :P thats all so far that i've found, not that it matters in the slightest, but meh ;)

Good; it's not supposed to.

It doesn't scroll in Opera either. Dodgy Mozilla. :p

If it's not supposed to scroll then no scrollbars are needed :)

Well, it's not that easy to make it scroll in Firefox... :)

And BTW, I still get a horizontal scrollbar with your sig.

i tested in all three browsers
firefox: cuts off writing entirely but u can scroll
opera: cuts off half of writing and u cant scroll
ie: cuts off half of writing and u cant scroll
in ie tough if u search for timeline which is at the bottom of the sig it finds it and scrolls the sig down but thats just me being fussy :refuck:

RE: New signature size limit
I had to do a deep refresh for the signature separator to show, and imo it's not as nice as the old one that was a partial line separating the post from sig, looked very nice on a 1024x768 resolution especially...I still wish there was an option to change my signature separator in the user cp, any chance of this?
Also the sig does indeed cut off more in Firefox than IE...I prefer how it looks in IE

Even with a centered signature? I don't think so... :p

Uhh... maybe, but it's not important enough to justify storing it in the DB. Maybe it could use a cookie. I'll only add it if there's enough demand.

Anyway, the current (default) separator could still be changed to something that everybody is happy with... I dunno...

The way it looks in IE is the way I intended it to look. I have no idea why FireFox would show it differently. Screenshot?
