Default USER POLL: Signature Size Limit.

Many users in here have signatures that are very large, compared to in other forums - often covering half the computer screen, in many resolutions.

So I'm wondering - is this something you others see as something bad or good? If you want, we could naturally implement a signature size limit (physical size, that is) - to keep the size of signatures down so they don't cover half the screen.

If you do decide to have a size limit, this limit will be decided in a SECOND poll - in other words, nothing to worry about now.

The poll will last for 3 days and the outcome will be decided by the winning choice, as always.

I think it's fine the way it is, I don't like being forced to resize anything, chop it anywhere or not being allowed to show it in my sig. I don't mind big signatures as long as it doesn't stretch the page, but I don't think anyone here is that insane...

I agree with na'vi supporter. If people can control them selves, then no need to take action.

Voted no but my monitor is pretty good size so it doesn't bother me too much. But people should be aware of their sig size for those who may be viewing on a small display.

I do agree on the limitless sig size because it's up to the individual to be responsible for themselves..However I think that people who have massive sigs should make them a more moderate size..Just so that people aren't waiting for ages for pages to load properly..The majority of people here are doing the right thing. I haven't seen any giant sigs yet but I'm sure 1 or 2 will pop up eventually.

I have faith in the people here to be reasonable in signeture size.

Well, do you really have to see what people's interests are in *every* post they make? I have nothing about signatures at all - but many of the sigs here cover my ENTIRE screen - I'm not joking And the people with netbooks here (I know quite a few)... for those, these signatures cover even more.

I love signatures - because they makes the user able to express so much in such a small space - signatures are an artform.

With these huge signatures, it becomes more of a picture gallery - and I feel like it becomes tedious scrolling past an entire screen because of this. But I will listen to the community, and do what you prefer.

We shouldn't limit the size, if somebody has a complaint, th person receiving this complaint will happily reduce their sig's size. And nobody is going to put a ridiculous sized pic as their sig.

So no, it's not entirely necessary.

Dreaming of Pandora - people already are

I don't know what monster resolution you have, but for me and many others, there are a lot of signatures that covers the *entire* screen.

Most of the time it's not just one picture, rather a lot of pictures in a row, filling all space on the screen..

But as I said, the decision is something i leave up for everyone

Well I admit I dont like huge pics either and truly despise animated sigs (one is even too much let alone three in one sig) as they slow down the page big time and there is a problem with multiple pics (yes I do have two in mine but if anyone wants me to remove one I'll happily do it).

So it's not really the size of sigs, the problem lies with multiple sig pics and multiple animated sigs.
