\"some limits on graphics in signatures\"
If all of you while reading this will look at the top of the page you will see a line of text that reads:
"We will be instituting some limits on graphics in signatures. More info soon."
As someone who very much enjoys having the images in my siggy I am starting a thread to ask that these limitations be lax enough to allow my epic signature to continue as is. I have made a great effort to limit the file size of the images and I also make an effort to not have my signature show up twice on one page in a topic.
Also since I might have the largest ammount of images in my signature compared to anyone in the forums it kinda feels like this is aimed at me

Re: \"some limits on graphics in signatures\"
As well as me, I only use a single graphic image in my signature, I don't know if anyone has put a 500K image in their signature, but I don't think mine is obtuse and I only recently added mine.

I hope we don't get dragged down to the lowest common denominator.

Re: \"some limits on graphics in signatures\"
Combat Wombat, it's not aimed at you and I guess it has little to do with the SE-Community. It's a matter of download size, but I don't think your Sig will be of any problem.

Re: \"some limits on graphics in signatures\"
Why is my signature gone now?
Edit-- Never mind, it was hiding.
Edit-- Bah! Git out from under there!

Re: \"some limits on graphics in signatures\"
A good "limit" would be a simple option that users can set for themselves on whether to see graphics in signatures. We already have the option to see avatars or not. It shouldn't be too hard to limit sigs as well.

An excellent solution Baron, but I wouldn't mind there being like a 200-250k size limit to the siggys too because even with a high speed connection if everyone had a 500k siggy it would add up fast.

Re: \"some limits on graphics in signatures\"
200k??? That's very excessive for a signature image... something more like 10-20k would be good.

Not if you want to use a 1024x768 BMP screenshot of SEV
