I see ton of sig pics over 600X200. How is this possible?

[GunGoomba]

I know right?

I think they are like that because they were made before Feld0 put the limit in place. Some people also have 2 images -.-

This.

The current limits for signatures are as follows:

• one image no larger than 600x200
• up to five lines

Anyone whose signature breaks those limits must have created it prior to those limits being put into place. If you see anyone with such a signature, please report them using the Report button on their profile. AMAC or I will then take care of it (and don't worry - we will not disclose your name; all reports are treated confidentially).

Why should people who created their signature before the limits were put into place be punished? For that matter, why where these limits even put into place? Did you decide to do it, or is it the program you switched the forums to that forced it?

It's not a punishment, Andy. Signatures are a privilege, on here, not a right. When people abuse the privilege, I alter it. I put the limits into place because people were creating some absolutely huge signatures that distracted from the topic. IP.Board has nothing to do with it. But okay, as a courtesy, I'll let people who created their signature prior to the limits being put into effect keep them until the next time they try to edit them.

Remember, 3DS Forums doesn't let you have signatures at all. Your signature is meant to be a small personal space attached to all your posts. Key word: small. Save the gif-pasting and epic soliloquy about yourself for your profile page.

Sorry if I sounded a little stuck up in that last post, Feld0. I definitely could have worded that first question better, as it does sort of sound like I'm accusing you of some great injustice. I never signed up for the 3DS forums, so I had no idea that it doesn't have them.

But I've spoilerized most of mine T.T

...Well at least I now know not to edit it ever
I think it's the same one I've had since around day 20 XD

Related, but did you limit the amount of images in posts? I can't seem to add images to them using the full edit editor :S. I can do it with the quick edit fine, so it's a bug either way. Last time this happened was when I went to go add my third drawing to my corner... I wanted to change the title to reflect that, which can't be done in the quickie...

Wertville, if you want to make any changes to your sig, and you know your sig isn't going to be disruptive, you can ask me to edit it for you.

You are limited to ten off-site images per post. To have any more than that, you'll need to make use of the attachment system. There are no limits to how many images you can attach to a post, or how much you can upload.

(Little correction: I only have 2 images in the thread... I'll add my third soon, though )
Both images were uploaded via attachment system, and I only have 2 off-site images linked...

Oh... the issue is that your smileys were turned into IMG tags. I filed a bug report with IPS about this, and it was fixed in IP.Board 3.2.2 (which we're upgrading to today).

[StreetPassWanter]

I think it should at least be bigger by 400 pixels... but oh well.

Ah, that's good to know
I do like my smileys, after all

You should be able to bypass the issue for now by editing your post with the RTE off, and replacing all the IMG tags with the original smilies again.

Is it off-topic to say that my signature is currently messed up when I have done nothing to it?

Yes, it is off-topic, but I'll explain what happened. I was editing your profile to lower your post count following the deletion of a whole ton of them, and I can edit your sig from the same page. The editor decided to screw your sig over while I was there, so I spent the past ten minutes trying to fix it.

[StreetPassWanter]

Thanks for fixing it. I just didn't want to start a huge fuss in a new thread.
