We need to implement some form of guidelines regarding signatures if we havent already. Using the [*marquee] bbc code works to a certain extent, but the sizing needs to be restricted or reformatted with a code in the global header/footer. The loading speed and the scrolling is something we could all do with out.

I know a lot of people like the scrolling and big signatures, but I have to agree. They can get a bit too extreme.

As I recall you could originally have around 600p vertically on MM.proboards.com and they made it so only 200p showed and you had to scroll to see the rest. We will see what we can do (I kind of like the [*move] bbc code personally as a way to showcase more than 1 Sig without lengthening the page)

I do not have a problem with the "[*move] bbc code" being used unless it is a significant drag on load times. I do not think enough people would make use of it to cause any genuine problems. I'm not sure I feel the same way about signatures with special effects such as sparkles and motion within the signature itself though. The size restrictions are something I would be more inclined to go with. I do not see that they delay my load time so much as I get tired of having to scroll through them to get to the next post. Now I understand how some people feel about scrolling through my walls of text To be honest, I'm a little out of my element here. You are more than welcome to educate me on signatures, though be warned, I'm a tough student. Without knowing more about them, and how they affect load times on the forum, I would be likely to just default to Selina's judgement on this one. I'll pretty much buy whatever you can sell her.

First, <3 to you Layla c: .
Kaya, I think it was 500x200. Anyways, that feature is probably a format code. I would have been able to find it for you by using [ctrl+u], but the site isnt up so I cant be sure.
The loading depends on the member's internet/computer, mostly. But it still gives the forum an over all 'clean' look.

Layla your ascorbic wit is one of the things I <3 about you I could not remember the Horizontal measure just the vertical and came up with the 600 because I had 3 stacked on top of one another at one point before the then Admin reduced the Sig. display to 225p high (500p x 200p + a line of text).
