Signatures!

Good day,

The Signatures are no longer scrollable, and still have their 150 pixel limit, so you'd better shrink your Signature down, because there is no easy way to see what is below those 150 pixels. ;)

*Adjusts Siggy* Phew, just fits :)

Good update IMO. Gets annoying when people have huge siggies and you're trying to scroll down the page. One suggestion: In the edit siggy box, would it be possible to make a cut-off for text? So then people would know how much of their siggy would actually up if they're just going to have text there.

I don't like this update. It's crap. I prefer the scrollable ones ;)

Just make it scroll, scroll only on signature click. :)

Daniel

Actually, Wizzup?, allow the HTML I-Frame to be added into the signatures :p But this update is truly crap in my very honest opinion ;)

Ah! I just thought it was a glitch on my PC when the siggies stopped scrolling.

why did ya'll make them stop scrolling wizzy?

The scrolling was actually a very useful way to shrink them without affecting the amount of information the signatures can hold.

Well at least the signature preview is fixed.

Umm I really liked the scroll-able ones more. If you were annoyed by the extra scrolling just move your mouse over to blank edge where the sigs end?

If we keep the none scrolling sigs can we have the text lengths go the full length of the sig box?

good job wizzup?, some people didn't know where there even was a scroll bar.

now fix the page numbering? :)

Narcle

2008-07-10 14:45:58

Lol not to be a pain… But I think the page numbers should of been fixed first (like MK noted). Instead you cut out the sigs… I don't care about the sigs but for the love of GOD can someone fix the page numbers on the really long threads? (and yes, i know it takes WAY more effort to fix then the sigs… dot dot dot)

Thats my thoughts. ;)

How about you all shut it, stop taking it out on Wizzup and realise that:
  • This was a staff decision
  • It was not just done because it 'annoyed' us.
  • There are many reasons why we do stuff that you can't see. (Such as why we haven't released a new SRL rev yet, and this).

Deal with it, accept it, and move on.

  • Staff or no staff, it is still bad.
  • What are the reaons for doing this then if it didn't annoy you?

Also, was i or ever tasking it out on Wizzup?? No, i wasnt't!

It wasn't supposed to be a personal attack on you, I'm saying to everyone.

It must be done. With the recent downtime of SRL, I believe Dankness has had to decrease his hosting package. Because of this, we have to cut down on the amount of traffic. Giving everyone the ability to have as large sigs as they want greatly increased the cost of hosting SRL which we cannot have.

Therefore we have to limit how much you put in your sig so we can control how much the forum hosting costs.

The message has been posted, and sigs will not change for a while now. We're sorry if you are unhappy, but at the end of the day, its only a couple of pictures less in your signature; Its not the end of the world.

Thanks for understanding.

There have been many people whining about the scrollable signatures. I have not decreased the size of the signatures, they are still 150px, I have only removed the Scroll-Bar, so certain parts of your signature, such as images out of proportion are no longer (fully) displayed.
There are very few signatures they actually need more than 150px, as far as I have seen. (Look at Starblaster100's signature, he has lots of usefull information in it, as well as a nice picture.)
If you can come up with some decent reasons to increase the signature size to 200px, I might increase the size, but for now I see no reason to do so.
Any reasons or arguments, PM them to me rather than make a new thread.
