Default Sig size

Maybe it's just me and my annoying nature but I reckon the size for sigs is too small, I'm sure they could be upped without too much backlash.

I always thought 300x100 or something near that looked fine. But I'm sure 'Sky E-phirts' tag it 500x300, surely thats big enough?

I'm not sure if there is a set sig size, (probably is) but so long as it's not too huge should it be fine. Just so long as members don't have to scroll down just to get past your sig you should be fine.

Yeah I don't mean pixel wise, it's just that the sigs I use on pretty much all other websites are apparantly too big a file size for this forum.

Ah. Well I'm no expert when it comes to graphics so maybe one of them can help you. Someone who knows more should come take a look at it. If it's too large then it may have something to do either with bandwith or a set size for signatures.

I personally think our bandwidth is bad enough. I don't really see much point to expanding signature size.

You're still allowed to host large signatures offsite, right? That's what they make Photobucket for

The sig load is measured from the hotlinked images. I'm pretty sure hotlinking is the only way you can put a sig up, anyway. They're not like avatars that you can upload.

I'm not too sure how much the dirty Powwebs server can handle, but the lag spikes are bad enough without huge sigs to be downloaded too, I'd think. If/when we get a better equipped server, it'll most probably be upped.

Fair enough, I hadn't tried hotlinking from photobucket simply because their was the faeture of linking straight from the comp. I just assumed that it'd be the same size limit whether it be uploading from the comp or hotlinking, silly me.
