The rule for sizes of signatures

No, the rules haven't changed. The same size restriction still applies, and the restriction is that the size of your sig -- all content combined -- must not exceed the following example, no matter what size screen you have, or what resolution you're using.

fonz, we never mind the opportunity to remind everyone about this, so thanks for the thread. There are so many members here now, and we mods simply can't police every person's sig.

However, you could have simply said something like, "So, are we now allowed to have gigantic signatures? I'm noticing some big sigs out there now," instead of complaining about how you were asked to trim your sig while calling others out for theirs. Makes you look like a tattletale, you know? wink.gif

Size and text restrictions should be able to be applied in the admin console couldn't it? That way, no manual intervention/reminder is necessary. Just like avatar sizes...

 

 

I just got tired of it all scrolling through, at times, more than 50% of the page length being signatures so I turned that crap off. trink38.gif

Yours is a little on the tall side but not enough that you need to change anything. Close enough.

He could remove that eyesore of a UGA emblem. That would help. tongue.gif

...if your sig is taller and/or wider than the image, it's too big.

^ and for those that don't/won't modify their sigs to comply?

The sig restriction is just a guideline, not a rigid "follow this or die" rule (sorry to disappoint you tongue.gif). Huge sigs are annoying and were getting way out of hand here, and this is an effort to keep them reasonable.

 

When we suggest to someone that their sig is too big, most of them are adults about it and do some trimming. Contrary to what you seem to believe, this isn't boot camp. cool.gif

would it be ok if I changed my sig to:

 

Temples of Syrinx

"The massive grey walls of the Temples rise from the heart of every

Federation city. I have always been awed by them, to think that every single

facet of every life is regulated and directed from within! Our books, our

music, our work and play are all looked after by the benevolent wisdom of the

priests..."

 

We've taken care of everything

The words you hear the songs you sing

The pictures that give pleasure to your eyes.

 

It's one for all and all for one

We work together common sons

Never need to wonder how or why.

 

We are the Priests, of the Temples of Syrinx

Our great computers fill the hallowed halls.

We are the Priests, of the Temples of Syrinx

All the gifts of life are held within our walls.

 

Look around this world we made

Equality our stock in trade

Come and join the Brotherhood of Man

Oh what a nice contented world

Let the banners be unfurled

Hold the Red Star proudly high in hand.

does my sig make my ass look big? pokey.gif

 

Seriously, from time-to-time... when I am distracted and even annoyed by signatures... I go to Preferences and hide signatures from my view. The silly things. Almost as useless as the post count thingy, imho wink.gif

 

Guess I'll go turn the signatures back on now... got to see if my fav members (the ppl whose posts I like to read) might have changes theirs...

uhhh, IIRC... wasn't it FONZ who started this whole ball rolling? pokey.gif

 

from an Admin point of view, best practices dictate that your policy be to moderate all sigs or moderate none

 

moderating arbitrarily should not be an option

That would be extra modtastic!!

 

I didn't measure my sig parameters, but just to be sure I am not changing shit! Hell, I might just have to add stuff! trink39.gif

 

Although no psot megreing and more than 10 smilies in a post is pretty futuristic!

That's why I called you a tattletale -- because I called fonz the same thing! I'm cruel, but fair!

 

As I mentioned earlier in this thread, it's not like we have the time to sit here all day and police peoples' sigs. We're not trying to nail every sig. But of course you already know that. You just like getting these reactions. I'm happy to help! wink.gif

 

Anything else you need explained, ghost? Perhaps you'd like us to come there and wash your dick for you, sir? biggrin.gif

so

 

by your own admission, you 'don't have the time'

 

and yet, when a few of the most flagrantly obnoxious signatures were called to your attention, your Administrative decision was to belittle those members who levied these relatively minor but nonetheless relevant concerns

 

that you have such a kneejerk negative reaction to a few attentive members dropping a dime on something that might be 'over the line' is irrational

 

your reasons are your own, but I suspect you feel mildly threatened

I'll take no offense here, but I'll remind you that when I'm kicking some good snark back and forth, you'll always know

 

this isn't one of those times

likely the most becoming thing you've ever posted

 

perhaps we should start a thread about such behavior?
