huge sigs...

um... how about some users get warned for the utter ridiculous size of their sigs?
1. Old School Fool, 3 Images! totaling to a size of 600kb
2. k0be4mvp... with one animated gif of kobe's dunk contest dunk, ~1mb large...

common... what is too much is too much... i don't want to load 2mb threads that have 10 or less replies in it on 56k... i'm sure nobody else does.

The issue of those signatures has been addressed privately, but thanks for the heads up.

Agreed.

I quickly replaced it with a smaller one, but what is the max allowed then? tell me a reasonable size and Ill adjust it

gee, thanks, it's only ~600kb large now... :applaud:

IMO, all animated gifs in avatars should not be allowed... if they go above, say, 50kb. I don't come to the forum for kobe's game highlights, and them gifs, i come for the posts.

sigh... i'm sure all 56k users that visit this board will be grateful for your kind consideration.

I think andrew had previously set some rules concerning sigs. I personal messaged old school fool about it

I consider that would be too much still. Only text should be allowed IMO, that would be very helpful, (Y)

Like you said before,

I don't come to the forum for kobe's game highlights, and them gifs, i come for the posts.

Images in the sigs are not helping, those who voted & complained about the 100 posts per page, at all.

Fucken Old School Fool.

I sent him a PM asking him to take the TWO animated .gifs out of his sign, because it takes fucking ages for 56kers to load...i come back two days later and he's fucken added another pic... :roll:

Old School Fool has removed the animated gifs in his image, as I also sent him a private message about it.

Oh, and the posts per page has been reduced to 50, though the topics per page remains 100.

I know, thanks :applaud:

Was just stating that now that the (100) problem seemed fixed, we were facing a new one.
