Signature Limits

[Kori Ellis]

So, people are insisting on making HUGE HUGE signatures that take up the whole screen.

Instead of limiting the size, we decided to add a feature where only a portion (400 pixels high) of the sig is shown. If you sig is taller than that, then there's a scroll bar on the side where people can scroll down to see the rest of it if they want to see it.

I'm not making this thread for complaints :lol I'm just telling you about it.

Thanks,

Kori

[Trainwreck2100]

and so it begins............................uh I mean test

[Supreme_Being]

I think my sig is small enough, yes?

[ata]

I've noticed this feature just minute ago. That is great, props

[Supreme_Being]

What's up with animated .gifs and Macs? Some are just blinking... Argh.

[DAF86]

I'm not going to complaint I'm just sad that you're not going to be able to have a full view of my "Spurs vs Suns-made at home with paint collage that is so cool that a guy asked me if he could use it as his own sig in another forum" signature.

Reduce its size to 400 pixels high or don't worry about it. People can scroll down if they care to see it. It almost fits.

Although this version might get you excommunicated :)

Good idea, the thing I was asking some time ago (if it's possible to do this here)

Thank God that somebody did something. That s*** is/was out of control.

Half the length of some of these thread pages is nuthin but siggys, and I wore out three scroll wheels on my mouse just trying to get to where people said something...

[Los Spurs]

I fixed my Sig.

[mavs>spurs2]

:lmao Spurstalks biggest douchebag's at it again!!

[SequSpur]

Sigs are stupid.

[vander]

so now when I'm scrolling down the page with my mouse wheel, the page will stop and scroll through each signature along the way, is this an issue with my browser? a setting in the forum? changeable? inescapable?

[Kyle Smith]

I use Safari on a PC and the big gifs blink for me too.

You just gotta wait for them to kinda load. Once they run through all the way, they stop blinking.

THank you!

Great idea.

Thanks Kori :toast

[Mister Sinister]

Nifty. Also, test.

[Mister Sinister]

Ahh, figured I'd have a scroll bar...time to axe that top picture. :lol Definitely not a good one of Sinister.

firefox mostly

Pretty sure that's expected behavior, whether in IE, Firefox, or Safari.

Your scroll-wheel is going to scroll through whatever window the cursor is localized over, and now since it sees the sigs as separate windows within the browser, it will scroll all the way through that window before it continues to scroll through the main page.

The best way to avoid this is to keep your cursor on the sides of the screen while you scroll (such as over the Member Info column), so that they aren't passing over the signature areas.

What you talking 'bout Ellis?!?!?

[Cartman]

In a way this could be great if you want longer sigs, now. You can make your 10 inch sig into a 3 foot sig w/o bothering anyone if they really want to see your extra long sig they have the option to use the scroll bar so maybe in a strange way this may back fire and many will try to out do each other with 4 foot sigs vs 5 foot sigs. :lmao

True & good advice. It's a system thing not something we can control.


Except if we do a hard limit and get rid of the scroll bar all together :devil

[Sec24Row7]

[HighLowLobForBig-50]

great idea

[The collector]

No matter how big your sig is it will never be bigger than Kori's 1,000.00 dollar a month bill for ST so we can see them. :(

[Mr.Bottomtooth]

I don't know if it's just my computer but when I see Back2Basics, his sig isn't within the scroll area applied to sigs exceeding the size limit. Either the first quote in his sig protrudes the area above it, or the last quote in his sig protrudes into the area below it.

I don't understand your question. His sig has the scroll bar.

[Mr.Bottomtooth]

I don't understand your question. His sig has the scroll bar.

This is what I see. The scroll bar is there but it's not used for any purpose. It's just there. The sig passes the limit and the part of sig that passes the limit protrudes into the area below it:

[Kori Ellis]

Weird. I checked two browsers and two computers and don't see it that way. I'll ask LJ to look at it.

FWIW, I also see what Mr Bottontooth is seeing.

me, too

Only for Back to Basics signature? Or all big sigs?

Re-check Back to Basics sig now please.

I haven't noticed it for anyone else but I'll keep an eye out

not now I don't see it now, but I remember logging on today and seeing a Tim Duncan picture taking up 2 posts



but that has been all I've seen

[Kori Ellis]

I think I fixed Back to Basics sig - he had some weird code.

Can anyone who saw it f'd up check again? Thanks.

Yeah looks like there is a CSS error. Let me try to fix it.

In the newest versions of Firefox and Explorer it's working fine. On older versions, it's messing up.

Check out this page:

And tell me if the some of the sigs are screwed up for you.

Thanks.

Those look fine unless they're not supposed to go off the side (ex: Kori's countdown sig is wide on my screen, not sure if it's like that for everyone.)

They're fine for me, and so is Back to Basics now.

[Duncan]

I get the Sigs have to be modified but this new rule about making Manu vs Parker Parker vs Duncan topics being locked is confusing is there a link i can read to the modified rules?

Thanks :tu

[T Park]

Fixed my sig.

[Borosai]

I'm using Opera, and when I scroll through a sig containing an embeded YouTube video, the video slides up and out of the scrollbox.

It's all good now. :tu

[WildcardManu]

test

[thiste]

I have a question : What is the pixel height where the scroll appears ? 400px or 401px ? Meaning is it ok to do a 400px image or should I stop at 399px ?

(you might not realize it but this is of extraordinary importance ! :rollin )

[GSH]

I've noticed this feature just minute ago. That is great, props


Heh, the Darko punch is a great sig gif, and the crawling bug avatar picture is great too. I actually tried to brush it off my screen. Made me laugh.

[Elraptor]

I fixed my sig, it was big. I took one picture out.

[ata]

That is actually Marko Milič (not Darko Miličič) against Pape Sow.

Milič used to play for Suns - first Slovenian to make to the NBA.

[Mr.Bottomtooth]

The thing with Back2Basics's sig is happening again, but this time to Capt. Mike. It's not protruding as much but you can still notice it.

[FlAVaK]

test.

hm, too small to see the details...

[FlAVaK]

I know it`s all about keepin signatures small, I´m anoid by them big ones too.
But mine is too small!

I tried to upload it with [sigpic], but there`s a limit.
Then I tried to upload it somewhere else (I tried imageshack, flickr and picupload.net) insert it as an image with [img] but it doesn`t get that bigger, although it has 1MB big already...

I`m kinda new to this stuff, so can anybody help me please?

[FlAVaK]

and now it`s totally gone?!?

[FlAVaK]

I figured it out myself. Really complicated...

Now I gotta get myself some booze for the game, stores over here are closing in half an hour :(

BTW: Thanks Kori and LJ for ma flag, this forum and everything!
Great work, I´m really enjoyin`this place :toast

[JMarkJohns]

I think you said fine to mine last time (That had some real flow to it, no?) but I'll post and ask again.

Yay, or nay?

And I only care what Kori says, so all you who have hated on Kat because she's all tatted up, you can eff off...

[Mr.Bottomtooth]

There's another problem, with my sig this time. When I scroll down to see the video in it, the quote doesn't scroll up, causing the video to overlap it like so:

http://i28.tinypic.com/15yeudg.jpg

[Kori Ellis]

Yeah I saw that with videos too. I'm guessing the scroll thing and video thing aren't compatible. I'll ask them to look at it.

[Slomo]

It works correctly in Firefox and incorrectly in IE. I'll try to find the cause for this. Give me some time though.

[spurscenter]

hey, I know my signature is huge and blocky but I stay within the size limit without it starting to scroll within its own window frame.

Can you guys please get rid of the scolling signatures that exceed whatever size limit you have in place?

It's interferes when you are scrolling down. the mouse stops because it grabs on to someones scrolling signature.

i know this is minor but some signatures are like 2 pages long and that frame within the frame is quite annoying.

thanks

[spurscenter]

so now when I'm scrolling down the page with my mouse wheel, the page will stop and scroll through each signature along the way, is this an issue with my browser? a setting in the forum? changeable? inescapable?

that is what Im referring to.

im prettty sure , all can express themselves before that annoying scrolling frame appears.

[Kori Ellis]

The scrolling doesn't happen automatically. It's because you are holding your mouse in the middle of the page. Just move your mouse to the side, and you can scroll down and it won't automatically scroll.

That's the point of having this function - so you don't have to scroll through the signatures.
