Sosarin Demar Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 It finally happened. Well, I may be the only one on the planet who operates at a 1024x768 screen resolution on account of crappy comp and tiny monitor, but there is a forum signature that took up my whole screen.I tried masking it a bit to ... well, protect the identity of the individual. I don't want to pick on any one person.Erm, anyway! For the love of god, please have small reasonably sized signatures. Merit listing? Okay. Picture? Keep it reasonable. Thanks.

Cygna Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 Thanks for posting this, Sosarin. I personally have set all signatures set to disabled on my account (so I can't see them), so I have no idea who has a huge one and who doesn't. Yeah I know, not very responsible of me as the administrator, lol. :| Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cyphre Iredell Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 Oh darn, and I was just about to add War and Peace in my signature, but perhaps that would be a bit large at a 4pt font... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scientific Waffle Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 I don't have any text in my sig, but if I ever do add it I'll shrink mine. I don't think mine is overboard at the moment however. Do tell me if I'm wrong on this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Syl Kiranov Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 This has always been important net etiquette, but it's especially valid for a professional/military board. Smooth function and usability for everyone should outweigh vanity, so sig files should be reasonable.In my opinion if you're using the Ordo Imperialis: Evolution skin (which has rank and group info on the right like in Sosarin's snapshots) and post a 1-line message, your entire post with sig should not extend significantly below the minimum block size.Here is a labeled example image of a nice, considerate sig size (taken from this very thread and masked like the professionals do it. No way you can ever figure out who it is.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gulliver Carpool Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 I thought I read on here that the signature was to include our merits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cyphre Iredell Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 With that post you just made with a single line, your entire post is over twice the size in length beyond the minimum size it would be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agares Tretiak Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 Exactly. Sekonda: Your sig is massive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
