Signature Limits

Sigs are stupid.

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?

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.

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?!?!?

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

Test

great idea

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. :(

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.

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:
