Signature Limit Upped

Progress! One Sass sig report at a time. =)

Jam it back in, in the dark.

That's what every smart person does.

Naw, the reason they have it at this filesize is not for hosting reasons. Both Imageshack and Imagesocket go up to a megabyte so there's free hosting right there. The reason it's like this is that they appeal to the lowest common denomonater which is people on 56k who actually give a fuck (and they usually don't, they're 56k) and those who don't enjoy loading images period for whatever reason.

The only reason it got raised at all was because of bobo's mistake to up it to 75kb and continuous sig reports from you-know-who.


Personally, I think we should just give people options on how high they want the total sig filesize to be and have it show a small picture in someone's sig saying it's been blocked by this option if it goes over the setting and call it a day. Then people can do whatever they want and noone can complain.

How ya doing, buddy?

Oh well fuck them. Use Imagesocket then. At least it isn't riddled with ads. And they let you host over a megabyte unlike Imageshack.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

The sig dimensions are fine. I'm pretty sure you're in the minority, Shin.

Really, what would be nice is if we had personal sig filesize limits. The default for everyone initially would be 75kb. Then if you wanted it lowered or raised you could as you see fit. It would only allow images below a filesize that you set be displayed. If it goes over then it displays a small image in the sigpic's place that says "Picture blocked by personal sig filesize limit."

How could we do this? Well obviously checking everytime a thread loads would be ridiculous. You'd crash the server for sure. What you could do is have it keep a stat for the total filesize of your sig whenever you press apply when you edit your sig. It'll calculate the loaded images then and there and keep the total filesize in a database. It would do this for everyone and basically that way it would automatically filter people's sigpics for you without taxing the server.

People who want to use and see big sigpics can do that and people who don't want to see them can set limits so they don't. Happy world for everyone, yes?

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

naz you've got too many images in your sig <3

lol I was just kidding around. While it's true according to the rules I don't really give a shit. Surely since I've pointed it out someone else here in metropolis does though. Sound the alarm! Pictures that size are pretty harmless anyway.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

The specific rule states only 2 images max in a sig. That can include emoticons if we're nazi anal butt pirates but we usually don't count emoticons unless you've got like 5 of them and then I'm tempted to mod abuse your ava/sig.

My thoughts are as long as your images match the alotted 300x550 pixels while staying under the filesize limit then you should be okay. That's me though and I'm real lenient about sigs.

Double Post:
Oh god what have I done? =O

3375 images of the same image in my sig. This is a disaster!

FELIPE NO

I suppose that could be an extra option added to Personal Sig Limits if it's ever made.

300 pixels tall is fine for decent signatures which have a lot of content in them;

It's just 300 pixels of very dark lighting.

Yeah, to begin with he's going 3 pixels over the width dimensions. Plus, it is a shitty sig. I'm going to get him a new matching Phoenix Wright ava/sig. =)

Oh, well that's good. I still like imagesocket more.
