Kill the huge sigs

ahh... Diane....

I am calm now!

dont make me add a 5mb gif on my sig.....cause i will.

actually, I agree with him to a point. Sigs here are getting way out of hand, and there seems to be no standard, and as a result we are indeed getting slower and slower.

the other problem I have is all the women in the sigs. I mean, I love seeing them....but when I'm at work, or if I'm home and the woman looks over, all the girls are hard to explain. we had ruled out women in sigs at one point ( at least I thought we did ).

I've been on other forums were your sig was only listed on your first post of the thread, and from that point on in that thread, no sig. That's kinda cool as well.

My sig is even really big imho, but I would gladly reduce it if we could all agree to some max. size. But with some peoples sigs taking up half my screen.....mine ain't nothing compared to some.

My sig was pretty big(er) at one point, and I looked at it a realized it was huge, so I cut out like 8 lines of text. Some are just mind blowing how big they are. I used to run dial up last month, and some pages wouldn't even load b/c there was so much to load due to oversized sigs. Mine is still kinda big, but if there is a limit put on size, I would resize gladly, until then, I'mleaving it nice the way it is. I'm not trying to be a dick, it's just, mine is medium sized compared to some. It could definatly be smaller than

if you host your sig pics ON THIS SITE through your "manage files" section... there should be little to no load time

my sig? i do what I gotta do!

 

[mazdaspeedpower]

Could somebody do a custom sig for me??? PM me if you think you might be able to. Not only do I want to change the style, I would also like to put text on it so I can loose the big sig. I'd do it, cept it's just not werkin for me. I've been trying for like an hour now.

"I've never seen so many, so large. With irrelevant info (like water wetter as a mod) in their pic siggy.

It makes the board load slow, the mods are really (mods?????)."

I call them changes from stock. Mobil 1 is hardly a mod but it is different from stock.

 

[Matthew]

i think your mobil 1 as a mod is silly IMHO...so are people that put "removed weather stripping"

 

[II-Savy]

Dude I just ****** said that, it's not a MOD! These are changes I have made from stock. It does not come with mobil one. Plus who gives a s*** if I want that in my sig. lines of text do not take ANY time to download and show. One guy has a huge gif of 2 chicks kissing. While it gave me wood it's unnessassary(sp).

You could try reducing the size of your text while still keeping it in your sig...

lol

 

[Matthew]

yea just type < h6 > before the text like i have done in my sig to reduce the size.

 

[Mazdaspeedgirl]

Exactly!!!!

It's just a suggestion, as this is the "help/feedback" forum. That's all!


So what is the limit on siggy's?

Just asking, that's all!

Currently, there's not a real limit, but it is being discussed by the mods.

For those who have work concerns, there is an option to turn off sigs. From some of the sigs I have seen, I recommend it especially for those who view the forums at work.

ahh... Diane....

I am calm now!

thnx! glad to help sweetie. (k)

 

[Mazdaspeedgirl]

And just to set a good example, I cropped my avatar picture, so as not to be work questionable.

 

[Antoine]

This seems more like a minor annoyance for some and not a serious issue. Yeah, I don't dig long sigs but do they really bother me when I see them?...no

Hmm...interesting idea...I'll mention this in the staff forum.
