Polite Request - Signature Sizes

[Wul]

Guys - not going to name anyone in particular but can you have a think about the size of you signatures please. Some threads only have 3 or 4 posts to a page due to the hooge signatures.

Cheers:rolleyes:

[Scottie]

is mine small enough.:D

[Gismo]

Oooh, am i ok, am I, am I :rolleyes:

[Wul]

Heh heh - very good Fi :p

[S7JGW]

is mine ok? or too big?

[AndyP & Lenore]

Wull, I'll be changing mine when we pick up our R56 - later this week or next week.

Could you remind us all what the recommended size is.

And are you remembering that in the user control panel under "Options" you can set the Number Of Posts Per Page yourself. You can chose from "Forum default or 5, 10, 20, 30 or 40 posts per page".

Not sure what the forum default is set to. I have mine set to 20 and regardless of how many or what size the sig strips are I always get my 20 per page.

Or are you talking about only 3 posts appearing on your screen at once?

A.:D

[Scottie]

I find the sig strips to big no matter how many posts per page.

I surf alot using my mobile it is a nightmare.

[monsta mo mini admin]

468 x 60 pixels is the absolute limit for sigs. Any larger than that will be removed...or hacked into little bits!

[Sweeney]

Most forums i use are 100x500 for signatures

Whats your new Nokia like for surfing? And do you use the proprietary surfing software? Or have you downloaded Opera Mini?

OK. I'll drop the size of mine when I change it next week.;) And in the mean time, I've got rid of the C64 window.:eek:

[AndyP & Lenore]

Sorry, can't resist this....

Wul, just so you know. Your signature image is bigger than Calum's rules allow.:eek: :eek: :eek: :D ;)

[PACMAN]

[Craig]

[Craig]

:rolleyes: .............Your sig is too big :D :p ....................always has been :rolleyes:


BUT... so is yours... and nearly everybody elses......... :rolleyes: ;) :D

[Burple]

If anybody is unsure about the size of their Sig, the easiest way to find out how big it is..


..is to right click on the image in a thread you've posted in, then choose 'Properties' from the pop up menu that appears. Your image's Height and Width should be shown in the box that pops up.. :cool:

But some people have multiple images making up their sig, so that would require you to click on each image and add up the sizes to get an overall size. Are we sure everyone on here knows how to add.:eek: :eek: :eek: ;)

heh heh.. good point.... ;):D
But surely if they know how to bung on multiple pics, they can count a wee bit... if they have enough fingers and toes.. :D

[AndyP & Lenore]

To be honest, it would be cool if we could have avatars. That way I'd use my current (soon to be replaced) sig image as my avatar (only it would be smaller) and a tiny wee sig strip image.;)

Any chance of avatars being switched on? Pretty please:o

A.:D

[S7JGW]

I agree with andy think avatars look nice

[Sweeney]

Ach don't worry...

You're still 'That Dobber' to the rest of us.. :D:D :D :p ;)

[Sweeney]

:eek: wasn't aware everyone thought of me as highly as that :D
water aff a ducks back, heard it aw before :rolleyes:

[minidriver#1]

avatars would definately tidy the site up. I've always thought the forum looked pretty cluttered and amatuerish with all the randomly sized sigs so i'd second the avatar idea.

There is nothing worse than posts that have less content than the users signature.

[monsta mo mini admin]

Avatars have been switched on since the forums were relaunched. Is there a problem with the system that's preventing folk from adding their own. I've just added one to my own CP without any problems.

There seems to be Calum, because in the "Edit Avatar" options page I can't uncheck the "Do not use an Avatar" radio button. if I click on it, it just stays checked.

A.:o

[sedgie]

Hey Calum can you sort mine for me......you know i'm dim n thick with this sorta thing!:confused: ....n need tae send u a wee email!....hubby was asking me 2...<coughs> he was on aboot fishing!:rolleyes:

[minidriver#1]

It looks like the user group permission hasn't been set yet for the regular folk like us.

[Gismo]

I can't put up an Avatar either, so, it's not a mod thing

[X30YES]

Nor I :confused: :rolleyes:........it is now ,TY MMM

[monsta mo mini admin]

Try it now....

[Gismo]

Try it now....
Ooh, scuttles off to find a more interesting Avatar than the current one :rolleyes:

[Minds Eye]

That'll be it working then!

[Minds Eye]

I did have any new users etc set to have avatars, you lot were a custom user group due to the import.

[AndyP & Lenore]

I'll ask the question here toooo...

I've set my Avatar as a custom avatar, 'cos that's really the only options. Are there "site" avatars too? Like a list I can choose from? Or can we only use Custom ones?

A.

[monsta mo mini admin]

I've not set any 'site' avatars at the moment. Custom avatars only at the mo.

[AndyP & Lenore]

No problem. Cheers Calum.

FIONA! Where'd you get yours from?

A.:D

Edit: Never mind. Sticking to a "custom" Avatar for now.;)

[Scottie]

No problem. Cheers Calum.

[AndyP & Lenore]

My C64 image wouldn't animate either. It was a bit pointless without the flashing cursor.

The maximum size of your custom image is 80 by 80 pixels or 19.5 KB (whichever is smaller). :rolleyes: http://i63.photobucket.com/albums/h124/ab2pcs/clubbin.gifhttp://i63.photobucket.com/albums/h124/ab2pcs/clubbin.gif
