    I just think sometimes people think forum signatures need to tell their life story of something... but maybe im wrong, lol

    No no, people just majorly misunderstand the concept of a signature, and since everybody has large sigs, it's a bit hard to just slam down strict (yet reasonable) rules. o.O;

    I just think that at least 40% of the freaking signatures br3ak t3h fr3aking rules... >.>;

    There is a fr3aking rule th4t fr3aking says that if j00 hav3 an imag3 in your signature you sh0uldn't h4v3 m0r3 thaN 10 lines of siz3 2 t3xt, right? (by the way, wasn't it 7 lines once? o.o) Well I've s33n pl3nty of signatur3s that br3ak this r00le, while I onc3 use to have a slightly oversized image and had almost no text in my signature and got rigorously edited... >.>;

    That is h0w it is... I guess s0m3 p3opl3 are m0re speciaL th4n oth3rs around here.... >.>;

    I remember something SA said about sigs once. "Sigs should be short and sweet. Not telling everything about you" or something like that. XD

    Now days Everyone has 10 banners stacked on top of each other, and 20 Sprites go go along with that.

    Ok Ty I'll try your sig thing on one of the test layouts.

    I say no images in signatures if people abuse the right.

    Andy - Jake's one step ahead of you; check the child style of Brains 'n Brawns.

    Kipkip - True, but don't you think that'd come across as a bit strict? ;/

    Yeah right... in this case it would be better removing the whole signature dude!? >.>;

    It's funny though how some people put several small images together which when put together become bigger than 500x300 (or whatever the limit is), and no one actually tells them anything because their brainless head thinks that they're not technically breaking the rules... pathetic.

    The limit is 150000 pixels for all images added together... which is WAY too much. =\

    (Mental note - signature too long. Fix it... later. *procrastination*)

    yes.. some of these sigs sizes are way out of control.. we can only edit so much, set so many rules and so on...

    we're looking for a perm solution so that the sig area is a set size.. anything over that gets cut off (and no scrollbars) but well there is a software update coming out soon so we'll most likely wait till it's released and go from there

    in the mean time you can use the "Brains 'n Brawns with sig limiter" style and/or keep reporting the massive sigs to the staff. *sigh*

    Steve - As I said before, change the overflow="auto" to overflow="none". That'll solve your problem.

    What Ty said is right. Some of the signatures are freaking huge, yet well, well within the signature limits.

    Btw I like the signature limit thing, with the scrollbars.

    gfg Ty. :P

    The code isn't perfect though, so don't get your hopes up yet...

    I prefer no scrollbars, 'cause then you won't be scrolling through empty space. o.O;

    I think it looks ok. Kind of reminds me of the time when everyone was going around PC with the code thing in their sigs (where they could break the limit but have codes in their sigs so it shows up as 500x300 or whatever they set it to).

    Well it was around. Steve even made a forum wide Announcement telling the members to stop with the code tags. Since it might have been within the limit, but you could have 20 large banners and it would still have to load them (That's the reason why Steve wanted everyone to stop with the code tags in sigs).
