I think your just too picky! [img]tongue.gif[/img]

I personally find that the images (In particular people who use 100+kb animated images after 2 line posts, [looks at Sir Goulum and Horatio]) in sigs tend to make this forum totally unreadable over dialup.

For example, in the posts above mine there are almost half a meg of images in peoples sigs. I personally think that is a little excessive.

The nice solution would be to have the option not to view peoples sigs somewhere. I know other places using UBB that have this option.

EDIT: What are the html codes for wahkas?

The only sigs i don't like are the tall ones (155 pixels is the height maximum people!) and the ones with more than 2 lines of text (as ironworks law states) These sigs with over 3 lines of text are too big, and by lines they don't mean things that spread from left to rigth either! those can just end up being more lines if they're too wide!

I think that each sig line should be no longer than the lenghte of one's sig (225 pixels) that way windows can be condensed with the sigs not shifting the text about!

I also like sigs because it quickly identifies the person who his posting when scrolling through a thread [img]smile.gif[/img]

I am with Vaskez actually. I prefer to use my signature only if...

1) The post's content is longer than the signature itself by about a factor of 4+.

2) I wish to refer to something in the signature.

That said, since everybody is displaying their signatures... ... [img]smile.gif[/img]

Totally agree [img]graemlins/agree.gif[/img]

And besides, without sigs, DK would have nothing to do. [img]graemlins/uhoh2.gif[/img]

Lol.. it doesnt bother me if its being used... lots of the ones that Deathkiller has made have been reused because the person who they were originally for arent using them anymore.... and i like my new one anyway... even though it takes a while to load... its still in limits so i guess thats alright

EDIT: I was just wondering i know that my sig takes a while to load but does it hold up the whole page when scrolling down for dial-ups... ive found that horatio's sig does and i think mine is about the same file size as his... if its holds the page up for anyone can you tell me so that i can work on making it smaller? Thanx
