    New Policy: Maximum signature image size

    In order to reduce post clutter and make the forums more readable, we will be limiting signature images to a maximum size of 504 pixels by 100 pixels. That's 504 horizontal and 100 vertical.

    This will make sure that the content of the forums doesn't get overwhelmed by the repeated images in signatures. It will also help users on a slow connection.

    This policy will go into effect on Friday, July 3rd. After that time, any image that is too large will be removed from users' signatures.

    If you have any questions, comments or concerns, please post here and let us know.

    Thanks.

    UPDATE: Maximum vertical dimension changed to 100px

    Thank you. I was beginning to find Unemployed and FrozenThrone's signatures a bit cluttering myself.

    Cheers.

    What do you think would be a better choice? I'm open to suggestions.

    504x100

    That would be slightly more than twice the height of the banner in Lanky's sig...

    Don't let images in signatures at all?

    That really wouldn't be fair to DarknessPwns after he put in all that work.

    I think maybe 504x100 is a bit small though.

    Here's an example:



    Maybe 504x200?



    Cheers.

    Re: New Policy: Maximum signature image size

    I'm not sure you really need 504x200...  504x100 should be plenty of room for a custom signature.  Bigger than that is annoying.  I'm also pretty sure that 504x100 would fit everyting that DarknessPwns put together for everyone.

    What if we split the difference at 150px?

    My sig fits either way...

    That works - can always play around with it later.

    Searching the web, 504x100 and 504x200 seem pretty common. 504x150 much less so. I would go with either 100 or 200.

    Cheers.

    Re: New Policy: Maximum signature image size

    Looking at random sig pics in these forums, I don't see anything that wouldn't fit in 504x100 that would fit in 504x200...

    I'm just not a fan of clutter, which you'd never know if you saw my desk at home.

    Re: New Policy: Maximum signature image size

    OK, I'll vote for 100 also.

    Cheers.
