Can the signature size be increased... a li'l...

Hi guys…

kauzy here…
just wanted to ask the MODs whether they can increase the allocated size for a signature i.e. 40KB… to something like 100 - 150KB… :flushed_face:

well… i can understand the increased burden on the server due to these small changes…but just a thought… :slight_smile:

regards…

Kauzy:)

i just saw someone’s signature… it was around 350x150… and size was 92KB… how is that possible :S

as i posted in the signature contest sometimes there are few pages of replies with about 30-40 posts per page. So having 100kb sigs would be like having 1mb plus downloads per page and it will be a pain on those with slow connections. (even on a 256 connection it will be a pain)

Anyways you can wait for the admins to reply as well.

Also if you notice any sig exceeding rules Do Report It

well… i understand it… i just wanted to ask how is that possible… a bug or something??

its possible to use larger sizes if they upload the sig on a third party imagehosting site and link it up.not sure but i think admins plan to disable image tags in siggy

hope u received my PM :slight_smile:

Just wanted to clear up this misconception.. Larger image size (in KB) is not really an issue of it being a burden on the server or wherever you host the image, but more along the lines of it being a burden on an end user! While a vast majority of us are shifting to broadband, not everyone has unlimited data plans or high speeds. These limitations are in place only for their convenience.

You guys have to petition for better broadband access, so that you guys get better sigs :unamused_face:

right said :clap: :clap: :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes: :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes: :rofl: :rofl:

Imo, tht is not a right thing to do..imagetags are gr8 tool to host avatars and siggies..it wud be better to warn those who exceed the limits of the file size or the dimensions instead of disabling the img tag in sigs…
Members can help find those whose siggies dont comply with the rules…:slight_smile:

yup exactly +1

Plz dont do this , img tags are one of the most useful for a siggy.

I have hardly seen any siggy exceeding limits though.
