If we continue to have problems with sig we'll just install a mod that chops them off. We're giving everyone a chance to not have that happen. I miss Ex too.

Whats wrong with that auto shrink feature that was or is still in use? all you had to do is click on the little icon to see the full image. Or is that feature a memory hog, slows the forum, etc?

The mod would only show the region of 200 x 650, anything else in the sig would just no be visible, no matter how long it it. But rather than going here I'd rather treat everyone here as the age they are and allow them to keep their sigs within perameters. sometimes you need a little more space for you sig and we want to allow those situaitons, bit others will just throw on a bunch of banners plus extra text and that's not cool.

Also, the decision to not resizde them is not because of memory or anything of the such, it's because large sigs are not limited to graphics only. Also, I really dislike the "click here to enlarge" line at the top of graphics.

line is a bit annoying but when you have people like Rage here who uses images like this as sigs it save you time of bothering them which can be over and over again. Or having to go in and be move it your self.

Hmmm tho imt had that presetting for sigs in place for a while now. this must be a big issues still if your posting this. i say yeah for the mod if you dont want the line. cause over sized sig are just annoying. the world we live is always ruined by someone when free will is given.
