Signature images

[Roland da Thompson Gunner]

Do these need to be so goddamn big?

[Nekoman]

I wouldn't mind some size guidelines. I didn't know how big/small I should make mine.

I hope it's not bothering anyone.

A long time ago, the community asked people too keep them at a certain size. I dont' remember how big. I just know I try to keep mine from being overly... in the way of stuff. Ask Outrider, he might remember or know. I keep mine around 200x200 if it's square. Prolly around the same if it's rectangular. whatever x 200.

[Rambo]

Hammerfel's sig could be a guideline.

[Outrider]

From what I recall, a specific size was never agreed upon, just that the images would fit within the standard page so that they wouldn't expand the width of the page when viewed, as that was the main complaint. The height of the image was not mentioned. As an example, my signature image is 500 x 250.

I just avoid sig graphics all together. Why? Mostly because I never get satisfied with what I end up with. But now I'm thinking maybe I should try it for a change.

This could be a topic for a cool JD theme for a weekend or month. Set a standard dimension and everyone do a sig. Might be fun and might get the community excited.

[Self-Modifier]

I remember the debate, because I was firmly on the "keep 'em small" side. But as has been said, I don't think an official size was agreed upon. no taller than 200 pixels seems more than reasonable to me, though. Mine's only 54 pixels tall. I don't really care about width because my monitor resolution is pretty high, but I suppose it's an issue to some folks.

[Flatline]

The guide line should be what ever mine is cause I like this one alot :p

[Outrider]

Your sig is the best Marcos! :)

[Flatline]

The best I could scrounge up Craig :D

[Stormer]

Ah, this old chestnut...

I agree on the width issue of not wanting to cause sideways-scrolling, it gets annoying when you have to do that to read longer posts because someone's sig forces a wider post area.

My personal preference is to keep them small, and ideally I'd say to keep it to a size that you can see at least one other post while yours is on the screen (if it's a short post). I find it somewhat annoying when you have to scroll to get through a single post when it's all sig apart from like one line of new text. I've been put off participating in other message boards when you've had to put in some effort to be able to tell the difference between sig and actual post due to all the huge/multiple pictures, quotes, links, animations, etc clogging up the page!

[Sonneilon]

Personally, I think Craig and Flatty's are a touch too big myself. Mine might even be too big in terms of things. But anyway... If someone wants to set up a community poll, go ahead.

My system must be blocking them. I haven't seen signatures in a while. I'll have to try logging in elsewhere...

There is some terrible(ly awesome) movie called The Room, and at one point some kid named Denny is assaulted by Chris R. the drug dealer, and wwhen some Lisa and her mother start asking Denny why he bought some drugs (HE NEEDED THE MONEY!) he yelled out "STOP GANGING UP ON ME!"

Everything is A-OK!
