Increasing the 255 character limit would be nice, but that would mean changing the database field itself (that way you could multiple links in your sig). Right now it's a char field (max 255). In order to accommodate your request it would have to be changed to a blob field (max 4000). Just a slight difference in required database space. In order to alleviate this - he would need to compact the database - taking yet more server processing power away from actually serving up games.Forum Guidelines wrote: # Signatures larger than 150 pixels high by 600 pixels wide just scream “I am compensating for something” and should be reduced in size. If your signature contains text or multiple elements, you can use this box to compare it with.
you think 300 is better?soundout9 wrote:Mine is slightly longer and slightly higher than yours. Second when i say 250 i mean the amount of characters you can input into the sig boxAerial Attack wrote:I'm pretty sure the limits are 600 x 150, which would mean that your 250 is already in violation.
Exactuallly. I think it wouldnt be asking to much to raise the character limit 50Herakilla wrote:i was trying to change my signature and i replaced the characters with the EXACT same amount of characters AND got rid of image (no image in the new sig i want) but it says "your signature is too long" even though it technically shorter and shorter in width and has less characters

Right now you're pushing the limit, and if he raises it you'll be pushing the limit again in a couple months begging for more space. It's just a signature... if you can't fit all 5 of your images in at once, maybe you should just use 4?

what about me! i got no pics, just quotes from games with friends that i feel need to be shared! i have another one i want to add but its gonna have to wait until the limit is raised or i get tired of the current oneshecter wrote:soundout9 wrote:I have 2 were do you get 5?AK_iceman wrote:Who really cares?

Geez, you people need to learn how to use your computers... Have a lot of text in your signature eating up your character limit? Make it an image file. Have 50'000'000'000 pictures in your signature and the links are eating up your character limit? Mash it into one big image. Already done all this stuff and it still isn't working? Use http://www.tinypic.com and http://www.tinyurl.com to fix that. After ALL that and it STILL isn't working, well, it's just a signature so suck it up! It's not that important and is just meant to be a little thing, not a massively huge behemoth, biggerandhasmorequantatythanmypost thing! Just small. Geez... And lastly:

Aerial Attack went over how you actually CAN'T just change it in 5 seconds and why it wouldn't work... Basically, here it is for the average layman to understand:Herakilla wrote:are we ever going to get an official decision? yes or no, if yes then you can change it literally in 5 seconds if no then i want good reasons!
It's 144 pixels (total for both pictures) high, with an unfortunately large file size of just under 340kb's (total, for both pictures, again). Your signature banner is 150 pixels high plus a line of text making it above the size limit of 150 pixels. So, technically, you're breaking the rules every time you post. You have a medium file size of about 67kb's total.soundout9 wrote:Your sig is a huge part of showing your personallity on the internet....
point made.....go me!
