What the H3LL is with the massive sigs???

Some of you obviously suffer from some sort of erectile dysfunction or penis envy.

Damn, what a bunch of horse shit. Who the hell wants to D/L this stuff? (Much less scroll through it.) I sitting in front of a 19" monitor and it drives me nuts. Let's not forget that some of our users still use 15" monitors in 800x600 resolution and some people (those poor unfortunates) still access these boards via 56k dialup.

Unless someone is suffering from a serious emotional issue or chemical imbalance, one reasonably sized graphic should be more than enough to represent yourself. (perhaps two at the most.)

WTF is going on here?? Spooge, Rude, Wookie, ya gotta do something here, this shit is gettin' outta hand. It's time to lay the smack down on some of these fooz.

Check out snipeymagoo's enourmous sig and BTW, what the hell is Gothic_child180 thinking????

Seriously.

I agree, Killah.

I make all my sigs 400x125, and they rarely top 70K in size. Something's got to be done to limit these monsterous/multiple sigs.

I agree. You mean nobody else runs their comp at 800x600? If I go any higher all the sites look strange. It does make things easier to see though at a higher resolution.

Mod Ukuma/Gothic child wins for longest sig. Even with my screen at 1280x1084 it consumed the whole screen.

[Own] Rebel/SnippeMagoo comes in a close second.

Those two signatures are out of control. Frankly they dont look good either. So far those are the only two that i see as out of sontrol.

Its funny theres a limit on how much text you can put in that box but within that limit you can cram ungodly amounts of bb code for pictures. a picture that is actaully larger than the text you may have wanted to type out. its should be more limited.

I admit that i've had a big one at one point, but i made it that way because i wanted it to be noticed. After a week i reduced its size. There sigs however just seem to get longer and longer.

mine aren't long i they don't even cover all of my screen andi have a resolution of 1152x764.

Zoner · 08-26-2002, 02:48 PM

It's still pretty LONG, though. What's the point of the last image in yer sig?? It really has nothing to do with MOHAA, this board, or anything related, does it?

Certainly not as bad as some of the L33t siggies... but you have to admit it's a l33tle b33t overzealous.

=[DOA]=VonMeyer · 08-26-2002, 03:41 PM

I try to keep mine at a reasonable size. Mine runs on 1024x768 also

Hollywood · 08-26-2002, 03:46 PM

I was actually going to cut mine down, and I got it down to 37KB. Akuma. it really is ridiculous...you need to cut some of that shite.

Red Hammer · 08-26-2002, 04:04 PM

Mine is quite large on the screen but the image sizes are really small.

Dodd · 08-26-2002, 04:37 PM

Umm...guys, please take a look at the #7 forum rule:

( 7 ). Keep your Sigs at a reasonable size, both in dimensions and size in
Kb's. Please be aware there are a number of 56k users out there.

Please comply...
