I agree wholeheartedly with Kix, these big ass signatures are for pure bred attention whores.

I seriously can't believe that the 15k limit has actually gone up.

Winters, I am seriously considering disabling your account you whiney muppet.

While we have a limit of 20k, I expect most sigs will be a lot smaller.

The size of one's sig image is clearly inversely proportionate to the size of one's.....

...never mind.

pft, love the way my old one now falls within the rules, but the script that changed all the sigs can't put them all back, so gives me a sig bigger than my old one, telling me I was breaking the rules, when now i'm not.

Tis all a bit of fun anyway.

First you bow to the pressure on sig's, next pornographic custom avatar's for everyone!!!

I think we have found a chink in the boards.ie dictatorship,
PEACE OUT!!

Yeah I know it's a bit daft alright I considered just deleting the warning images (since I can't really restore the old image links without digging through old SQL dumps) but it'll remind most people to change their images back (and to check out the rules while they're at it).

My sig image was 319 pixels wide and 60 pixels high. It was 7Kb in size.

I don't see why it was removed... can anyone enlighten me?

[edit]: nevermind... just realised it was 19px too wide, apparently...

new sig: 299x59px.

pfft. its STILL 7Kb.

Can I just point out

All signatures should not exceed the following size limits, and you can't have both text and images.

All of the sigs here with images have lines of text on them aswell........ I.E. Bards for example.
