Signature Pictures, need help Shon

[stratusrt01]

Trying to post a new sig pic, and it's not letting me because the max file size is set at 100 bites, which is way too small to post anything. Is there any way you can increase that while maintaining the size limit?

[Kay Ot Tek]

Yeah the signature guidlines are retarded. I tried changing my signature and it wouldn't let me, even to just text with nothing else @ 9 lines.

[JeremyB]

Did you host the picture elsewhere and link it to your sig

[dRaGGin loW]

yea these sig rules are out of hand u can barely see my new one

Of course........

It wouldn't even let me put my old sig pic back in, exactly as it was before. I guess something is out of whack.

At least you can get yours to work, mine is well within the size limits, it's that 100 bite limit that I can't get past

[Team Nemesis-DJ]

wont work corey

[stratusrt01]

yeah, that one was 223x60, well within the limits, but still won't work

[Corey Anderson]

works for me lol

[Team Nemesis-DJ]

lets see if it did work

[stratusrt01]

OK, I let Corey log on my account, and try it, and it wouldn't work, so obviously there's something goofy going on with at least mine and mojo626's accounts.

Either that, or Shon doesn't like us....

is tha file size within tha limits.. not pixel x pixel.. but tha size.. (xxKB)
if not, i can make it work for you when i go home Rich.. i'm at school FTL.

BUT i do believe we need a little more SIG freedom.

[stratusrt01]

well, when I try to post it, it says it's a 100 bite file size limit, which is impossible with a picture.

[Corey Anderson]

yea but its wierd it let me put it in my sig without a problem.

[momentarylapse7]

100 byte? not 100 kb?

[stratusrt01]

don't know, that's why I think there's something crazy up with mine and a couple other accounts.

i'm sorry about the sig rules, but they were implied because a large amount of people did not want to follow the sig rules that have been posted. i want to keep the sig relatively small because it prevents clutter to the forum. prior to the automatic restrictions, i would have to personally pm/contact individuals with sig that were beyond the guidelines to correct their sig. now, with the automatic limitations, this process is not necessary. it's one less thing the administration has to check.

here are the sig guidelines:

if you host your sig off the roe server, it has to be less than 100KB.

[stratusrt01]

That doesn't explain why Corey could post my sig pic in his, but I couldn't. I even went as far to think I may be retarded, so Corey logged onto my account and tried, and had the same problem.

I understand the rules, but if he can post it on his account, then shouldn't I? I even tried putting Corey's sig pic in my account and couldn't, gave me the same error.

that may be because when he made you system of the month moderator he might have created a whole new group for you and didnt adjust the settings for signature requirements and it might be on default and off hand I forget the default setting for vbulletin… or it can be that the moderator group has different settings than standard members and yes just like before with the guidelines… I dont quite remember if the signature parsing (size limitations and such) goes throughout all members or just groups…

thank you...that was the problem.

stratus you should be ready to go.

[Used2Know]

you are welcome…

on a personal note…I thank you for providing such a nice forum… so there really is no need to thank me for helping… just glad to do my part and pitch in, but its appreciated…

[stratusrt01]

Thanks to both of you, at least you confirmed that I'm not retarded............lol

[Used2Know]

you are welcome…

shon a 100 bytes is a little small especaly if this is a site that thrives on up loading things. I would look at outher large forms and see what size pics they alow to up load. A forum sig is a way for the user to comunicate ones identy to outher users. and right now i think 100 bytes and 10 lines is a lil small.
