I turned them off a while ago to reduce page load times on my phone. This may have been in the Edge days so maybe it's not a big deal anymore.

Thanks for posting this as I rarely pay attention to forum announcements.

And what about links to other forum threads? I have three links every time a PrimeGrid race is about to start or is running.

Real forums allow images in signatures and don't have restrictive limits. Maybe limits to keep it down to no more than 300 pixels high or so. People who easily get offended can just turn them off.

You can [post=29015036]enforce that limit yourself[/post], if you can add a user style. (Change 93px to 300px.)

The announcement makes it sound like you get six lines and each can be up to ninety characters. So 540 total?

Also, I once quoted Werepossums diatribe on alligator penis. Would that be appropriate to put back in my sig?

Actually, on and off, the discussion has been happening for years. In the past, we addressed obnoxiously long/annoying/distracting signatures individually. For years, it's been brought up to have a "set in stone limit," but in the past, we had always decided against it. In setting the limit, an overwhelming majority of members here already fall within these limits. -Admin DrPizza

Can you fix Italic () bbcode not working in signature while you're at it, please?
