NEW RULE
Hey you. You with the image in your sig. Take it out.
This one's my fault, I'm afraid. One forumgoer asked if he could have a sig image, and it looked good, so I told him he could. I did not see the slippery slope. Now everybody and his radioactive spider has a sig image, and it's getting ridiculous. So from now on, no sig images. Don't despair! You're welcome to link to an image in your sig. And those of you who are eTrektion candidates will have your campaign images posted with your candidate profiles -- on 5MV itself -- which is even better than having them in your sigs. (Fame!) But no more actual images in sigs. (Why am I making you remove them yourselves? Because I've checked the admin control panel and there's no option to disable sig images. I'm afraid you'll have to do the dirty work.) ADDENDUM: Due to overwhelming demand, Seko, the cat in Fuyu Ginga's sig, has been exempted from this rule.

Well, I'm perfectly fine with it.
The post pages were getting awfully long with the huge signatures, and it probably takes forever to load for people with slow connections, (like dial-up, I have a T2, so It really doesn't make any difference to me), and some of them were kinda making my eyes bug out, if you know what I mean. I also don't have one. :wink:

I'll remove it......"soon" :twisted:
j/k. banners included? also, could you define "link to" in your sig? I mean, by that do you mean [img][/img] or only ? but I reserve the right to link to my sig as an image at a later date. And yes, I know my sig is too long. I hope this isn't the beginning of a nanny state here at 5MV as I don't like the sound of "Chairman Zeke" - It just doesn--- Yoink!

You don't think I'm an authoritarian prick? I appreciate that. That makes one of you....

Well, I would have suggested limits before jumping straight to the outright ban (I thought 80x100 at less than 10k was pretty reasonable myself), but it's your site.

I really don't like it when every poster on a board has 15 pictures in their signatures that dwarf every post that user makes.
I agree. It's probably best not to have any at all, or at the very least have some sort of size limit.

Will that do? (To answer your question, I'm talking about [url] tags, not [img] tags. Linking to the images is fine with me.)

Just thought I'd post what I was going to use after the eTrektion, so you can all see how immensely clever and witty I am (though naturally you already knew that
 ).
