| Hi, I noticed you have signatures disabled by default (either for new users, although I couldn't see anywhere to enable them for me) or globally. This is a shame IMO - it would help split the posts apart, as currently they kind of blend into one text wall. Just a thought...  | |

| post some rules on sig limits? 300x500 or 200x700 (height x width) are some normal-ish sizes | |

| Well I was kinda diggin' the no-rules vibe round here...
But those sound like sensible limits for everyone to stick to, though it's not like anyone's gonna check up on it, unless someone's really taking the proverbial...

LOL I'm in awe! Thanks for enabling them  And the class related boards are loads better too... I think you can specify sig rules in the admin stuff - as you can tell, I'm pro-sig, but I'm also pro-restrictions because there's always one idiot that comes along with a 1024x768 sig lol | |

| Seems I'm outnumbered, so we shall have a Sig limit!
Personally, I'd be inclined to go for a very generous 400 x 800 / 250 character limit, so I'll stick that in the rules for now, and if people think that's really too much or it becomes a problem, post here and I'll change it.

I think you can specify sig rules in the admin stuff - as you can tell, I'm pro-sig, but I'm also pro-restrictions because there's always one idiot that comes along with a 1024x768 sig lol I'm not 100% sure but I think phpBB admin board settings for sig sizes just makes it show a small warning message above the signature edit box, and limits the numbers of chars in the sig, which causes problems if the image has a long link. putting the rules in plain sight without actually enforcing them strictly means that when someone DOES come along with a 1000px+ sig then the admin/mods can remove it without too many complaints. | |

| Yes, being phpBB2 (phpBB3 won't display correctly on ps3) there's no way to actually control sig size other than rules.
It's now in the user agreement/forum rules, you guys think I should post it somewhere else as well? | |
