gta phil gta Posted June 22, 2004 Share Posted June 22, 2004 Nice new rules, very nice. I much prefer them to the old ones, more freedom yet still restrictions. The red/green box is also a neat addition, and stops the confusion. Great job.

Ramirez Posted June 22, 2004 Share Posted June 22, 2004 Yeah the red/green box feature is a nice addition. Is it an add-on for IPB? Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/137568-signature-size-rules/?do=findComment&comment=1751465 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azkoyen Posted June 22, 2004 Share Posted June 22, 2004 Yeah the red/green box feature is a nice addition. Is it an add-on for IPB? No, we had it beamed from planet Alphyra in the Angel Constellation it's a hack that the staff here did for themselves, it's not an iPb developed plugin.

Mark Posted June 22, 2004 Share Posted June 22, 2004 I can't count, so about the image size? Doesn't matter, as long as its not bigger than 500x150 (total sig size) and isn't more than 80kb . Yes that means if you want you can have a giant stonking Black 500x150 rectangle and not be pwned for it lol. I'm happy with mine as it is lol no need for a big f*ck off sig. By the way, would anyone care to post a webstie that tells you all the code for these kinda boards? I mean whats wrong with HTML (ok yes you can f*ck up the page majorly but meh i know boards that have it enabled and no one gives a sh*t ) Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/137568-signature-size-rules/?do=findComment&comment=1751650 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trows Posted June 22, 2004 Share Posted June 22, 2004 Bugger, mine was like 4 pixels to big, So I had to remove a couple of things from my sig, I guess I'll make new images when I get home from school. The line is really good for checking the size now, good job.

Dalpura Posted June 23, 2004 Share Posted June 23, 2004 I've been waiting for file size limits. Much better for my sh*tty 56k connection. Turn of signatures in board settings then.

Azkoyen Posted June 23, 2004 Share Posted June 23, 2004 @Jack_Knife: If your connection is slow you should use the GTA Net 2k4 Lite skin, it has a lot less graphics. @phutile: That's a sweet sig dude! I was worried that 500x150 sigs would look horrible, but they don't.

Jay Posted June 23, 2004 Share Posted June 23, 2004 Harsh but fair. Harsh??? Are you kidding? It's almost twice the size as before and a quarter of the confusion. That was in referral to the tolerance on abusers, not the actual limits, Dem. I'll try to be more specific in future.

Jakk Posted June 23, 2004 Share Posted June 23, 2004 (edited) Good idea but it didn't work for me. I was told my sig was too wide by an admin but the box was green: . Maybe its because it was text that was making it long. Another thought; why not not put the text wrap on when it when it gets to a certain width?

BenMillard Posted June 23, 2004 Share Posted June 23, 2004 (edited) Seems fine to me dude, maybe there was a timing problem with the posting of this topic and the actual installation of the changes? Must have been...was that why there was a longer, second downtime? Anyway, when we first introduced the idea of limiting the overall signature area rather than the individual things people threw in them we should have dedicated ourselves then and there to finding a solution to visually display oversized sigs in the edit signature template. Now it's up it seems fine to me. I didn't realise my signature was so fantastically compact until I saw how that green line dwarfs it! Any chance you could post the code which makes the red lines appear when the signature container has to stretch too far? I'm thinking it's done by layering fixed-size, green DIV's (or similar element) over expandable, red ones?

TwoZero Posted June 23, 2004 Share Posted June 23, 2004 I think a 100x100 avatar is a good idea to, it is standard on most forums and I don't think many people will have problem with it. And a avatar size limit of 8 Kb or something like that. And I like the new Sig rules plenty of room and the image size of 80Kb should be more then enough to.

Dakin Posted June 23, 2004 Share Posted June 23, 2004 (edited) Cool. Well-coded little checker you've got there. Should work well. It's also nice to finally have all the aspects - punishment, regaining sig rights, and whatnot all set in stone. Good work boys. P.S. Increase in size is also appreciated. It's gonna take some getting used to, seeing all these monster signatures on GTAF.

Mewish Posted June 24, 2004 Share Posted June 24, 2004 Damnit, sigs are too big! Half of the challenge in signatry is getting it to fit, and now it's barely a problem. The limit should be 350x70 if you ask me, but since you've shoved it in my face I will use it to make really ugly behemoth sigs. ~Mewish Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/137568-signature-size-rules/?do=findComment&comment=1754725 Share on other sites More sharing options...
