Treza360 Posted 20, June 2010 Report Share Posted 20, June 2010 Just a question in regards to signature sizes. Is it possible to increase the character limit? The reason for this is that VBulletin counts html code as well as displayed text. That means when adding hyperlinks or making the sig look pretty as well as adding an image link you tend to run out of characters pretty damn quick. I think 1000 characters should be plenty enough. Maybe an addition to the rules ensure things don't get out of control with things such as image size (pixels and kb) and also the number of lines and font size etc. Cheers, Trent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dish Posted 20, June 2010 Report Share Posted 20, June 2010 This isn't VBulletin - it's phpBB You could use tinyurl.com for smaller links. As for increasing the size, well, I personally am not a fan of overly long sigs. Don't forget that there's room to put stuff on your profile page if there's more info you need to convey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Treza360 Posted 20, June 2010 Author Report Share Posted 20, June 2010 My bad on the forum type. Just made an assumpmtion. I'm not a fan either but you see say my little sig. I'd like to have some additional html markups around it for bold and some colour etc but can't due to the character limit. So plain and boring at the moment.

strife Posted 20, June 2010 Report Share Posted 20, June 2010 you can use html markup afaik Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Treza360 Posted 21, June 2010 Author Report Share Posted 21, June 2010 you can use html markup afaik Yes you can but it counts towards the number of characters in your signature which is currently limited to 255. What I'm asking is if that 255 can be increased to say 1000 so that way you can put in text formatting, url hyperlinks etc. The rule change/amendment I mentioned is so that the increase in characters doesn't get abused and you have people putting in massive essays as their signature etc. Cheers, Trent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deb Posted 19, June 2014 Report Share Posted 19, June 2014 I'd be disappointed if you hadn't already signed up for a 275R to join the stable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
