i'm against large text sigs for one simple reason; every time i see a certain person's text sig, i keep thinking this is a new post, plus he already has a sig pic as well. it's just too much. most every forum i visit you are limited to one or maybe two lines and no sig pic. now, we dont have to follow the crowd, that's true. but, it does get to be beyond a reasonable amount somewhere around 4 or 5 lines, and even that's pretty generous.

also bear in mind that every sig line and pic adds to overall 'weight' of the Org and we've already had to cut posts because of some cap which seems to exist either with this board or with the server we are on. so, do you want larger sigs and see your posts cut more often, or do we use a little conservation and save the whale :)

During my trawl of vBulletin hacks, I found one called User Selectable Signature Line Display Limit. Which basically does what it says on the tin - allows individual users to select how many lines of signature text will be displayed. Quite handy, I would think, assuming it works as advertised.

For the sake of completeness, these are the others I found:

• Quick Sig Image Size Limiter - reportedly limits, with modification, both the file size and dimensions of signature pictures. Problem is that the changes/add-ons to the original code are in the thread and have not been collated in the original post.
  
• Easily limit the size of user signatures - with this one, the browser will only show the "first" x pixels in width and y pixels in height of the signature picture, and the rest will be hidden. x and y are admin definable. No file size limit though.
  
• Signature Mod v1.0 Beta 2 - older hack that seems to have been superseded by User Selectable Signature Line Display Limit mentioned above.

Anyhow, looking forward to seeing what new feature(s) you are currently concocting for us Tosa!

Edit: Forgot one

• Showing signatures once per page - again, fairly straightforward: "This will cause each user's signature to be shown only on their first post on each page."
