    Actually, your sig is over the limit. Please adjust, or Wyll will get angry.

    I really enjoyed viewing sigs and following links etc, but I finally turned sigs off just so that pages would load at a decent rate and certain JS sigs (no finger pointing) crash my POS computer.
    Grab the opportunities life hands you, that's my motto!

    I find it rather distressing that certain people got upset at me for having a 282-pixel-high signature while other people had signatures that spanned at least 500 pixels. I wasn't aware that my sig was over the limit in any case.

    And bennator: JavaScript signatures aren't allowed. If someone actually uses one, you should talk to them about it, I guess.

    You're using JavaScript to alter the hover colors of your links, in case you hadn't realised.

    Weird; I thought that was entirely HTML-based, but at any rate, it's a very small amount of JavaScript and there's only one of those in my sig though. I don't think it should mess people's machines up that much. If it bothers people I guess I can change it, though it's very me-ish. *shrug*

    The filters which both of us are using are CSS, not HTML

    As I figured.

    If you have javascript in your sig, remove it. That goes for anyone.

    As you said...
    And bennator: JavaScript signatures aren't allowed. If someone actually uses one, you should talk to them about it, I guess.
    *nods* bennator's obviously bothered you. Don't tell someone not to do something and then say that your stuff shouldn't be changed unless it bothers people. If it's the rules, it's the rules. >=/

    EDIT: *is on a anti-bad-sig rampage, please, everyone, watch out before you too get a *bing* PM*

    OOC:I'd like bennator to specifically comment about my sig before I change it, because if it's not actually causing anyone harm or undue pain, I don't see why it should be removed. I don't really appreciate your consistent slightly disguised condescending attitude towards me about everything I do on these fora, either, BoBBo.

    I'm not trying to be an arse, but that green is me. It's not like I have JavaScript to open a freaking pop-up window to a porn site or anything, which I believe is what got JavaScript outlawed from signatures. If no users are actually complaining about my sig's tiny amount of JavaScript that only activates when they run their mouse over a link in my sig, I don't see why I should be forced to remove it. And I find it strange that it's always you who's asking me to make the changes, also.

    Dunno. Mebbe I'm just still feeling offended. *shrug*

    Just thought I'd mention I'm aware my sig is over 50k but it's only by an ickle bit I believe... the main pic is 48k and the ciddie pic is 1465b + the text... actually, it might be under, but please no nagging... it's only an ickle bit!

    Actually I'd noticed yours, Spatvark, but since the Ciddies images are all over the place anyway, they don't or at least shouldn't count towards the sig limit (filesizewise, anyway), since only one has to load for all users using that image on the whole page, regardless of how often it's used. So yeah, the Ciddies trophies shouldn't really count towards the sig file size limit (assuming everyone is using the same link, which they should be anyway )

    The only reason I was pointing out such things is because you openly said that one thing was a rule and then you said that it shouldn't matter for you. But hey, good luck with fixing it, and I'm not going to do anything about it. *nods* You're not being singled out, you just brought my attention with that post. *points to the PM button from now*

    *shrug* If I can find a way to achieve the same effect without JavaScript, then I'll change it. I wasn't even aware that I was using JavaScript to create that effect, and frankly, for something that only causes your text to highlight ever-so-slightly when you run your mouse over it, I don't think we could be causing much harm. *shrug*

    Woteva. I'm going to just stop posting in this thread, as there's no point to it.

    Just thought I'd point out that my sig has now been approved. Look in the JavaScript thread for more details.

    Peace
