Topic: Sig Guideline PetitionPosted: 21 April 2008 at 12:02am |

So it has come to my attention as of late that the sig rules are outdated. These rules were designed when dial-up was the norm, and broadband was for rich people. In this day and age if you don't have a broadband connection there is something wrong.
Therefore I petition that the sig guidelines be changed to something that better reflects the current times. I believe we should still have some sort of cap, especially on the height of the image as a sig that is to tall takes up a lot of page space. However The cap should defiantly not be 350 x 150 anymore. I would say something like 600 x 200 would be a lot more reasonable. To give you an example of what it would look like: ![]() Who agrees?

500 x 350 is a totally reasonable size. I say we go for it and if there's a significant clamor from 56kers we can consider changing it back. |

I never had a real issue when I had dial-up with big pictures or sigs. If anyone has problems with dial-up, get a better computer or stop looking at pron. |

I for one, oppose.
On the grounds I'm too anti-conformist to support this. |

Oppose and Support.
I see nothing wrong with allowing increased width of signatures to no more than 700 pixels. However, an increased height by any significance gets annoying when it comes to scrolling down pages. Push it up to no more than 180 if you think it's alright to push it up at all. |

I agree with Tolgak, a 500x350 image is annoyingly big and will.
Increase the width. |

Yes, increase the width.
Not the height too much though, 350 is gigantic. |

Tolgak, I tossed the idea around a bit of having a hieght of like 200, but then most 4:3 images end up really small. I honestly think common sense should dictate what is to big. Now that I think of it maybe 250 is all we should go on height.

If that's the scae they would have to add software to only have one sig show up per thread.
