Doesn't work when logging in from various locations, like busy University people usually do. :P
Funny solution, btw. *gets popups from adblock malware*

I use to use a sig that had a 2.8 mb file size, maybe you should put a limit on a file size too.

I know, now dont you think there should be a limit?

actually, its only 605 pixels high...

so 700 pixels and some limit on max file size...

one does not need to have more than the number of sigs you have tetrismonkey... if one needs that many, one should have them animated to take less vertical space...

Agree 100% that there should be some sort of limit,

Not sure if anyone's mentioned this, but what about spoilers?

Re: max height of signatures?

spoilers work... the stuff inside them is hidden unless one opens them, and thus not in the way when scrolling and such...

Sorry man it's just you. I sometimes see the word image for a few seconds as various sigs load, but you may want to check your net connection and run a speed check.

Spoilers would be a decent idea, but then people would argue about the character limit and the need to take some of those characters up using the spoiler tag. So I think it's a good idea but increase the sig character limit from 359...to something around 378 (19 character increase for the spoiler tag code). But I do agree that I have seen a few sigs that are ridiculously large (though not so much lately).
