Mete and everyone,

Again you can go to the mobile version of the site but it's a read only right now. Forumotion (the software) is working on a full blown version.

But here's how it looks when you're reading it:

Sweet John, I will be sure to use it! Thanks!

I really dislike big signatures. I find them very annoying. However if the mods think it's fine then I will have to come to terms with it. So I would vote YES for keeping the signatures at a minimum.

I have asked an admin, who seemed to think mine was not to big...but, if it is making it difficult for others too read, I am happy to remove it.
Just let me know.

For me personally, your sig is fine, Josh! If the sig gets so big that Paul has then I find it a bit annoying. But like I said, if mods think it's OK then I'll just have to let it go.

No probs mate.

Looking at my last post....it doesn't read to well.

"I have asked an admin, whom seemed to think mine was not to big"

Glad we were talking about sig's

Update: Guys, for those of you with a signature (whether it's a pic or a link or just some text) you may notice we have now added a standard 'line separation' above your sig space.

We're just having an experiment atm with the different line breaks available.

Some of you have made your own line breaks - you can now delete these if you like by going into your profile - edit signature -

cheers!

If you think the sig I have now is big. You should see what it used to be like. If this crap keeps up and my name keeps getting dropped I can make it big ass agian. The everyone can really have something to whine and bitch and cry about.

So I'm asking right now to John. Becasue his is the only opinion I'll go by, since he's the Head Stoncutter . So Johnno is my sig as it stands right now "TOO BIG"? If not then everyone else kindly move along and go bug someone else.

I don't want to create a situation out of nothing. It's just my personal opinion. I would prefer to not have big signatures, but if the mods say it's OK then it's fine by me.

BTW I remember your old sig and you have made the new one a lot smaller. So it's going in the right direction

Paul , since you are asking me directly I'll answer, since I robbed gamefish of their site.....

As an Admin your current signature size is sized well enough that the formatting issue on a mobile is pretty much taken care of. When someone increase the text to read, your pictures will stack up over each other so the scrolling is still tight. I'd like it to be smaller to make it so a smaller screen (tablet PC, Smartphone, Netbook) doesn't need as much side to side scrolling, but hey it's not such a big deal that I'd force it upon the site.

As a member of the board, I have to be honest and say that multiple signature pics are a little bit of a pain. I had three in my old signature if you remember. I deleted them when people said it was an annoyance but only because I wasn't that attached to them. Now that I don't have them , I see the other side of it.

To those with pics, if you really like them and they're sized right then you're fine. It's a sign of individuality and I fully embrace the idea of letting people express themselves. Keep in mind some others won't like but at least respect that.

Those those without, it's a few pics. It's not the end of the world. The message above about respecting still stands. To quote a stormtrooper "Go about your business, move along"

Last point - Although Tommy mentioned Paul's pic, it was just an example and not personal. I don't want this to escalate under the auspice of a personal attack.

Still think you should make them all the same size. Would look way better IMO.

I know it wasn't personal on Tommys part. I was just using the quote as an example. I'm not attached to my sig pics but I like having something unique in my posts. I personally find sites where there's nothing to personalize your space to be annoying, simply because I find it boring to look at. Sterile and bland drives me just as nuts as big bold pics and avatars drives some others. I also admit I don't have any sort of mobile device, so I freely admit I have no clue of the "problems" sig pics cause for those that have them.

But a question just occured to me as I was going to send this. What about big pics someone posts in the new pickups thread? Don't they cause issues with someones view too?? Like I said I don't have an IpadmobiletableKindletwhatchamacallit, so I have no idea.

Yeah, good idea, Josh

Josh, think if they were sized all the same it would look better? Didnt catch that the first 30 times. Just fucking with you, mate.

Josh , make THIS your sig line. You, quoting you, and being seconded by you

@Paul - Pics embedded in threads absolutely do the same thing. The difference , as you already probably will guess, is that they're usually on topic stuff related to why you're in the thread. So people give it a pass, rightfully so. Signature line obviously don't.

As for a size limitation, Chris is working on seeing if we can make that happen.

For know, just watch this ........

about that Coca Cola commercial.

The song is in my head the whole morning now, please help me get it out, I feel extremely softy now.

Marco, what you have is a bad case of vintage Coca Cola commercialitis!!!

What you need is some therapy... try replacing that Coke song with an update - one that's even catchier !!!!!!!

We are prescribing you this cool DJ Shadow/Cut Chemist remix .... take three times a day following a meal. Do not operate heavy machinery! And do not take if you are pregnant!

There, that's better isn't it?

Yeahhhhhh!

That helps a lot, thanks Paul!

So what exactly are you talking about here anyway??? Sounds like a private matter.

LOL, good one, Paul!!

Damn, that Coke song will be in my head the whole fricking day.. Back on topic, I use the K.I.S.S (Keep It Simple Stupid ) approach to signatures.. Of course, that is my opinion.

Oh and yeah. My brain is starting to bleed from the Coke song playing over and over and over and over............

I was out and about this weekend and tried to jump on here on my Blackberry again.

It really is a disaster. The mobile version isn't really user friendly at all and when you go in classic view you end up having to scroll through pages of pics if someone has more than one pic as a signature. One pic isn't bad but once you go into multiples it gets to be very tedious. I ended up trying to go through one thread, shut it down and moved on.

If people don't want to change I can respect that. I think the best option would be if each user could turn signatures on or off. If that isn't an option, I don't like doing this, but can I add people to an ignore list so I can actually use the site when I'm away from my computer/Playbook (hey, I'm Canadian, go RIM!) have some time to kill? Is that what the foe list is?
