That signature is so annoying, can it not be a bit smaller? Don't make me disable signatures Tongue

You should make a rule about no .gifs in signatures...

That one's against forum rules anyway (dimensions too big).

They're generally OK, as long as they're not obnoxious or too big (both dimensions & file size)

That one fails on all three counts tbh.

Guys, you really dont need to post pointless crap after the issue has been sorted? stop trying to raise your postcount.

RE: How do I use a .GIF as a forum sig? - Johan. - 2012-12-02 00:43

Bleh I don't give a rats arse about my post-count. Your GIF is just slightly, annoying.

Excuse moi for the language

Well... to be fair, the rules do say that signatures should be no more than 500px x 160px (500 wide / 160 high).

Your current gif. sig is 227px high, so it needs either resizing or removing.

It's also annoying as hell and doesn't make any bloody sense.

E: same for you Johan, yours is 200px high. Also, 'rats' isn't a swearword Tongue

Arse could be seen as one Wink

. I'm just using mine to show how annoying a signature could be. I could go worse within the limits ofcourse... Biggrin
