So how many lines ARE allowed in a sig?
I've seen them getting bigger and bigger, and now there's someone who's up to 11! I have many more points to add to my gay agenda, but 3 seems like it's enough, but the sigs are getting out of hand, IMHO.

Gay agenda? :lol:
Unless it's changed just recently, there is a 5 line limit in sigs. http://www.ameritech.net/users/dvdtalk/rome.gif |
I think any line in a sig that mentions "EyeToy" should be considered to be three lines.

5 lines at 1024x768 resolution. Due to current economic conditions, the full-time staffer whose main job function was to monitor sig lengths had to be let go. :(

*cartman fondly remembers poking fun at linking DVD lists in sigs by placing his entire DVD list in his sig for posting in 1 thread, then forgetting it was there and getting an email from Geoff that JH had complained about my sig length*

The mods depend on stuff like that to enforce the rules and keep the site running as planned. They can't catch everything.
Long sigs are annoying and waste bandwith. |
:o
I thought it was four -eek- Signature lengths greater than five (5) lines. As a courtesy to fellow users utilizing low screen resolutions and/or slow Internet connection speeds, those users who append signatures to their forum posts must keep the total length of their signature to a length of five lines or less. |

thats 5 lines including spaces!

I find it odd that someone with 7 lines is posting in this thread
and for the record, long sigs don't bother me and I'm on dialup. I always have multiple windows open so if one takes longer to load I have other stuff to read Originally posted by Preacher Did you reflect for even a moment about what you are doing? |

hmm, I'm using 1024x768 on my monitor
and to clarify, the length of anyone's sig does not matter to me, I jsut thought it was kind of an odd thing to see in a thread about sig length |
Preacher's sig is a little over one line on my screen.:)

only thing I have is the normal address bar, file menu and back button bar on my IE. no other special features. I'm at work now so I can't check text size
wow, didn't realize what was intended as an innocent odd observation would stir up so much debate :) |
