Actually thinking about it and reading some of the posts maybe images should be allowed and videos not. Although some are amusing they are quite annoying and the repetition does your head in :roll:

Not one of the sigs on this page so far is a problem. It's the HUGE ones or multiple ones over 2 or 3 lines which cause the problem IMO.

I have thought about removeing my vader signature and keep my spaceballs. But if I try to remove my vader and keep spaceballs then it says it is to big so I can't do it :?

Maybe it is the Helmet :lol:

And is ther eno way to resize your Spaceballs gif? Because that's the large one.
I don't mind the animated gifs, but i think i certain heigt/size (like todd's for example should be the max).

Yes the size is the problem and I do not know how to make it smaller and I can't remove the other one without removing them both becasue of the size :?

I don't mind the smaller ones but some of the bigger or multiple ones do annoy me. Though, if I can turn them off, as I have now, it's fine.

I don't like them much, but at least they are proper pictures and GIFs. I remember the message boards at university being plagued with idiots with massive ASCII pictures in them and huge chunks of text.

I've not had a gif sig for that long but however the poll ends up its clear it annoys a lot of people so I've deleted it

I do see how they clutter up the screen on mobile devices so no big issue

:lol: Looks like the fun police are winning this one :lol: , I agree limit it to one but if it's really annoying so many people I'll get rid of mine as well.

Is mine too big for you? (said the Vicar to the actress)

Please say yes, It'll be a first :wink:

Personally I quite like them, it helps break up a page of grey with white text.

Pomse - I think it's official. You've got the biggest one on the forum (signature that is)

As expected there are those that do and those that don't like them. I think I'll leave them active, but will request those if you with massive ones (eg over 200 pixels in height) to resize them or choose something else, also only one image per signature please.

I quite like them, there were a few that were really annoying but they haven't posted in ages. And I always look forward to what Todd will come up with next.

When I try to delete the small one, then it write I can only have 120 pixels ? and I can't keep the other one :? I can see you write 200 pixels. Will that be changed to 200 pixels in the system ?

I have limited the signature size to 640 x 120 pixels, which is this big:

This is plenty big enough, I do not want any bigger than this, sorry.
