Smilies and images in signatures

[dannel]

What do you think about them? I would rather have them disabled to keep everything alot more clean (like in rsc).
Or at least put a limit to the smilie count / image size.

[franky500]

I think that you can change that in your USER CP to choose to NOT display signitures?

[Victor]

yep you can disable the displaying of signatures in the options of your usercp

[Tweaker]

No images in sigs please, but smilies... yes maybe.

However I don't like to see big smilies in sigs... as long as people don't overload them thats coo.

[dannel]

Yeah, I was thinking about 2-3 maximun smilies maybe...

I like to see people's signatures, but I don't like people having images in them.

No images, they just make the forum look messy and harder to read as thread pages are half filled with peoples's signatures.

[illegal]

I'm all for small signatures, images make it too messy.

[_rod_]

think shoud be allowed, but with a limit... if not would be a mess, think about: using a 800x600 image (lol:D )

Eheh, good point.. By images I meant those you see on some forums that are 600px wide and 300px in height - they ruin a nice read :) Smileys are different, I don't mind those since they're so small..

[Qurpiz]

I'd have no problem with small smilies, but if someone starts putting his/her (oh who am I kidding, his) face in the sigs, could be another story.

[Nitemare]

i think that images in sigs are just pointless waste of bandwidth...
smilies in signatures are pointless too, but as long as they are not overused, i don't mind them

[DeXteRrBDN]

little images won't hurt :hyper:

[Bob Smith]

Smilies I can live with. If you want to put an image next to every post, you'll have to make do with your avatar.

[XCNuse]

yes... i hate the living guts of signature images.. i cant stand them; they take up so much space... and honestly, who actually looks at them after seeing them a first time.. really

its just a waste, and a pain in the butt for people with dialup or whatever

[Anarchi-H]

If a small size restriction is placed on them, say 100x40 max, I see no problem.

There's whole communities that live of these signatures...
If they're non-intrusive (ie. fit the theme of the forum) I have no objections to small banners... But ONLY a banner and no additional text... Or ONLY text and no additional banner.

[rich uk]

either little img sigs (100 x 200/300) or bigger max size for avatar :)

[Bean0]

I like image sigs, but some you see are far too big. Really long text only sigs get on my nerves though.

A sensible size I think is 400x75 with one line of text allowed underneath.
Or for text only sigs, 4 lines maximum.

A max filesize of 20k or so should help for the dial-up people (are there really that many left??)
