Signatures...and quotes

budman said:
Hey :barf

I want to state/request a couple of quick things. This has been discussed within the Mod Core and pretty much we all agree.

1. I would request that you start to limit the size of your signatures.

THE GIANT Letters are certainly annoying to some and I have been contacted by a lot of folks that are tired of seeing a two word post and 5 inches of sig lines. Some of these have been sponsors of the board that are paying to help us :barf

2. I also want to make it clear.. that putting someone else's quote in your sig without permission in a negative way will be construed as baiting if the individual quoted contacts the mod core requesting removal. Therefore subject to the TOS applications.

The new software package will automatically limit the dimensions you will be allowed to use for signatures... so this is coming and I just wanted to ask if you could start some of those limitations as good will. If you take note in my sig of the race team sponsors.. I had changed them to show horizontally rather than a vertical line up. As such:

MOM
DAD
SISTER
PETER
PAUL
MARY....

Vs. MOM/DAD/SISTER/PETER/PAUL/MARY

This is not a bandwidth problem just a deal to make barfing a little better.
Some pages will be saved... but that is really not the deal. It is about getting to content rather than large graphics that are intrusive or spamish in nature.

Thanks for the cooperation. ;)

:smoking

Bumping this to the top again.

Time to show your respect for Budman.
 
Thanks Enchanter:thumbup

It bothers me some people cant follow this simple request.:(
 
Please comply with Budman's request.
