Signature Image Size Limit

Hello Foz,

Please check https://forums.totalwar.org/vb/showt...t=extra+sig%2A post 11 is the point we're at now. If those are a problem, please use that topic to open the discussion again.

This forum tries to serve the very narrow banders, the narrowbanders and the broadbanders.

Tosa, is there any chance that we can get signatures disabled by default on new accounts but the size limit raised on the normal sig (I'm thinking to around 250kb)?

This should cater to both sides of this debate, as those who do not wish to download and view sigs don't have to search around for the 'off' key, whereas those who do, can and will.

Hello sapi,

Signatures are also used to advertise a mod, recruit players and things like that. Turning sigs off by default is likely going to result in many left in the dark.

One visit https://forums.totalwar.org/vb/profi...do=editoptions to turn BroadBand on, one other to set the Extra Picture https://forums.totalwar.org/vb/profi...do=editprofile (which is set to 100 kb now) will do the trick.

The problem with the BB pictures are that many members have not changed them. It was annoying to have so many default pictures that just made the load slower and the page bigger. BB pictures do not get much circulation.

Oh, I agree that we do have a system in place; I'm just trying to think of a way to do this that will please both camps.

Maybe a default text-only sig, swapped with a broadband picture on enabling 'true' sigs (this would be pretty much identical to the current system, but with more public awareness)...

I don't know
