Scroll Arrows In Signature

[Sailor Chibi Lunatone]

I've noticed that in many members' signatures, there are scroll arrows, allowing them to put in multiple images/ text without breaking the 500x300 limit. I have some images that I would in my signature, but unless there are scroll arrows, it would break the limit. That being said, how do you put them in a signature?

 

[Yameneko549]

They still break the sig limit. The arrows just keep the post areas from becoming too big and making the topic a pain to look at. The arrows only show up after the signature becomes a certian length, though, so don't worry about them.

(edit: spelling mistake)

Oh, all right. Um.. I won't get in trouble for breaking that limit, will I? Plenty of people seem to have big signatures.

If a staff member catches you, you'll most likely be warned. With that "Operation Good Friday" thing (don't get me started on it), you'll only know when you see your sig edited by a staff member.

If you see a sig that breaks the rules, just pm one of the higher staff or the mod 'dawson' and they'll edit the sig :3
The scroller just saves space but yes the rules are still in place :3

the idea is to NOT have the scrollers show up, yet have a cool siggy.. think of it as a challenge.

Even with the scroll bar, if your sig is over the 500x300 limit it will be edited (like if you added more banners to your sig and still had that 500x300 image your sig will be edited). All sigs has to be within the limit (if it's a few pixels over then most of the time we'll let it go, but images should be within the sig limit).

Forgive me for asking a question X3 but if there are scrollers, Why do we have a sig limit? Isn't that just to save space? Or is that for bandwith also?

I'd like to know the answer to this as well, 'cause I know PC has a lot of bandwidth. o_O But eh. It still does have to load the entire sig, and there's no scrollbars when viewing a profile... anyway.

 

[Innocence]

Yeah, But if there are scroll boxes, Then wouldn't that mean that no matter how big you make your sig, the scroll boxes just get bigger? Wouldn't that mean that it wouldn't make a difference?

Read this...
"Even with the scroll bar, if your sig is over the 500x300 limit it will be edited (like if you added more banners to your sig and still had that 500x300 image your sig will be edited)."

Scroll bars or not, sigs have to be within the Signature Limit. Having a few bars doesn't mean you can break the limit now. The limiter is just a guide line and a reminder that you should look into it and see if your sig is over the limit. It's no different then having code tags in your sig, you still have to be within the 500x300 limit.

oO; it may have alot of bandwith but it is made for other things then people making a sig something it's not -.-
A signature is ment to show You and nothing els o_o I think scrolling signatures only cause more chances for S.P.A.M.

In a way I would like to see them goten rid of but for the reason that some of my friends have them =D I need to stay low befor Friendships need mending.

I believe she means spam in sigs. x_X;

I like the limiter, actually! <3

 

[Freenaturearts]

:nods : Exactly Kylie-chan ! Thank you =D I know it's pretty cool but theres nothing stoping some new users or old alike from posting a monster image in there X_X and thats a main worrie I have about that thing =3 I'm all a go for the size it has and I wouldint mind it myself but some really bad people are out there oO;;;
