Regulate Sigs!

[hurting101]

:D I was gonna say that but changed my mind

Is there any way to regulate sigs from the user CP...?

EG: someone tries to make a big sig their sig, and it discards it and comes back as an error?

BTW,

Don't you think that's big?

I'm sure it can be done as a hack in vbulletin. And as for that sig being big, yes. But that should be the absolute maximum size. Of course, smaller is much preferred.

its not only a qustion of byte size, anyone can make a huge gif :p

its alos a question of pixel size

You know I dont think signatures need to be regulated except yours timdorr, its freaking me out :s

[neowin_hipster]

what was scoobies last name. i remember his sig was several pages long.

I did this quite a while back, in december or something, and i still think it should be done.

[Dazzla Veteran]

That user was called "administrator". I don't think that was scoob though.

I'm in mozilla and whenever I see a sig that is too big or fugly I just click "block images from this server" in the context menu. I do think it should be regulated to 400px wide max. Outcast's sig is just obtrusive

[mortensen]

Disable sigs if you don't like 'em.... I've been complaining about the dubious content of women in some sigs and no-one cares, so either put up with them or blocks sigs in preferences.

Or block the people with the huge sigs... I did that with ones with rediculous half-naked women in... and it saves me having to sit through just that one persons sig when all the rest are fine.

what about me am i good?? my sig is huge but it's only 4kb

[Guest deadzombie]

Would this sig be acceptable?:

yes....i like it....and everyone else who doesnt like sigs....JUST DISABLE THE DAMN THINGS IN USER CP! **** stop whinin and just do something bout it instead of bitch at us all.

[Fonze]

hows mine?

btw, to me it isn't the size of the sig that matters, it is the pictures of girls that are displayed.

i like sigs, they give a colorful look to a boreing forum, maybe the ability to turn off certain users sigs would be good

[Keldyn]

Hummer & Anormal. I would strongly consider trimming your sigs. Too big. If you do not, i may just have to do it for you;)

Deadzombie...that sig is enormous. You should know better. Shame on you!:p

[Keldyn]

The height is too great. 524 pixels high is too much.

[OrangesOfCourse]

Hey anormal.. because Keldyn's eyes (or his sigs :p) are watching you.. i edited it for ya... if you like it.. use it.. if not... let Keldyn edit you sig :D

i personally have to say that I like the sigs, and im usually connectin over ISDN 64k, which ok is a BIT faster than 56k, but not much. I dont mind the wait because I think sigs give the Neowin forums character, I know when i go to a forum without sigs (or even custom avatars sometimes), it feels kinda boring, and there's no real way of someone expressing what their 'into' or whatever...

anwyay, thats what I think on the issue
