Signatures

Just thought I would point out some signatures getting rediculously long. We know everyone is proud of their car, but is it really necessary have a pic of it, half the webpage in size in your signature? The site should limit it or the admins/mods need to crack down, its just annoying.


just my 2 cents.

One "userbar" counts as one line. We don’t mean to be **** about sigs, but many users have slow internet connection and large signatures take a long time to load. If you have a big sig, and post multiple times in one thread, some members may not be able to load and read that page.

A little long, try putting the mods etc. over a pic for example. Or one or the other.

Yeah mine is a bit large. I will be changing mine real shortly. Probably just a real small pic of my car with just my mods in the back but a small picture. Much smaller than the one I have now. But I have a question:

I used to have my car in my avatar. That's when I first signed up. I'm going to estimate like maybe 3-4 months ago it disappeared so I tried to put a new one in. I don't even have the option of putting one in now. I checked every setting and option possible.

About the avatar I dont know about that, I believe you have to be premium member to have that.
