I've been waiting for file size limits. Much better for my sh*tty 56k connection.

Turn of signatures in board settings then. I do when my cable gets capped to 28k.

Nice rules too. I like the red/green box dealy a lot.

You with Optus?

I'm going to go check my sig size.

Edit: Yay, it is legal.

Love the new limits, now we can get some good pics in the sigs.

I like the new rules. with them I don't have to guess on the sizes, theres a box there to do it for me.

[Xme]

Very nice guys.

@Jack_Knife: If your connection is slow you should use the GTA Net 2k4 Lite skin, it has a lot less graphics.

@phutile: That's a sweet sig dude! I was worried that 500x150 sigs would look horrible, but they don't. They look sweet

[eggburt]

that new box thing is sweet, good work @ whoever made it

eggburt sexes you all

[Azkoyen]

Thanks eggy, it took long enough

btw, pinned.

That was in referral to the tolerance on abusers, not the actual limits, Dem.

I'll try to be more specific in future.

Good idea but it didn't work for me. I was told my sig was too wide by an admin but the box was green: . Maybe its because it was text that was making it long.

Another thought; why not not put the text wrap on when it when it gets to a certain width?

I swear I had to re-read that 3 times before I understood what you were saying, Jayz. I get it now

Seems fine to me dude, maybe there was a timing problem with the posting of this topic and the actual installation of the changes?

Must have been...was that why there was a longer, second downtime? Anyway, when we first introduced the idea of limiting the overall signature area rather than the individual things people threw in them we should have dedicated ourselves then and there to finding a solution to visually display oversized sigs in the edit signature template.

Now it's up it seems fine to me. I didn't realise my signature was so fantastically compact until I saw how that green line dwarfs it! Any chance you could post the code which makes the red lines appear when the signature container has to stretch too far? I'm thinking it's done by layering fixed-size, green DIV's (or similar element) over expandable, red ones?

I think a 100x100 avatar is a good idea to, it is standard on most forums and I don't think many people will have problem with it.
And a avatar size limit of 8 Kb or something like that.

And I like the new Sig rules plenty of room and the image size of 80Kb should be more then enough to.

Er, it's just 4 green images with red set as the background colour for the cells?

[Moto]

I'm glad that the size limits were put in...more of a challenge for me!

I managed to get my current one just under 80 kb.

[Chunky Lee Chong]

Double U-Tee-f*ck.

[Dakin]

Cool. Well-coded little checker you've got there. Should work well.
It's also nice to finally have all the aspects - punishment, regaining sig rights, and whatnot all set in stone.
Good work boys.

P.S. Increase in size is also appreciated.
It's gonna take some getting used to, seeing all these monster signatures on GTAF.

Damnit, sigs are too big! Half of the challenge in signatry is getting it to fit, and now it's barely a problem. The limit should be 350x70 if you ask me, but since you've shoved it in my face I will use it to make really ugly behemoth sigs.
