Cthree,

Is it possible to allow html in the sig??
That way, people can put their car+mods in a table that grows horizontally...

Of course, this only solves the screen space problem not the data size problem.. but text is
far smaller than images (given equal screen space).


I tried to help one of our board member (desmond) on his
long sig by putting it into a table but only to find out that
html is off for sigs.

I may be one of the few who don't find lengthy signatures such a big problem (I'm lucky to have a fast connection). What annoys me the most is when ppl post an entire quote (including pics) when only one sentence in the quote is applicable to the reply. A complete waste of window space. Then there are others who post a one-line quote, and a one line response (usually a ), but somehow manage to spread the message over 8" on the screen (most often in Off Topic threads).

It would make reading so much quicker if ppl took a few moments to edit quotes so they only contained relevant sentences, started typing their reply immediately after the last [/quote] (which will display the text on a new line anyway), and only used one carriage return between paragraphs (instead of multiple blank lines). I don't want to point fingers at anyone in particular, but even a few posts in this thread have a fair share of "wasted" lines.

I personally kinda liked wes' style of sig, I like to read through that from time to time and his usage of font made it a little easier to read. I'm changing mine right now though, gonna make it a little simpler... Lemme know what you guys think.

PS: xviper your avatar drives me nuts

When you post to any thread (or create a thread), you have a series of options on the bottom before you click on submit reply.

The thing that bugs me the most is people complaining about advertising on the board. Are they too selfish to realise that we need the various paying sponsors, vendors and advertisers?
