Are there any limits in signature size?

[dkbit98]

Today I saw one signature that is much bigger than all other signatures I ever saw in AltcoinsTalks and Bitcointalk forum.

This signature has much bigger font size and icons are also larger in size, so I would like to ask admin what is the maximum size for signatures?

I won't compare this signature with others but I am sure you can all notice how the size yourself:

I am currently on mobile, so I guess maybe thats why it didn't seem to my like there is any difference in the signature you shared, compared to other signatures on the forum, aside from the icons of course.

The icons are obviously a bit larger compared to others I've seen, but I can't notice any difference in fonts, the fonts look like the same size with the fonts from some other signatures here, but again, maybe it's because am on mobile..

I leave other users, and specially the admin to confirm.

I couldn't find any of those sig yet, can you link some discussion?

It might be some error in forum front end, because every sig should have the same height/width limit. It Maybe adding a limit to font size might be a good idea

width: as far as your screen can be stretched laterally (adapts to the user's device, so with bitcointalk).
height: as many rows as your signature has. I just tried adding up to 50 rows in my signature and it shows all without being truncated.

Signature limits apply to the number of characters.

we don't limit, but we count on bounty managers to have reasonable signatures, when there is excess we contact the bounty in question, and if abuse, we take actions.

As far as I know, the bounty manager pays for the signature design, he doesn't design it... In this case, the bounty manager would have to ask for the designer to make the corrections.

But there aren't abuses so far.

Funny enough, it already compared with the signature you are wearing (Mixtum), according to the alignment in Op. There's no significant difference. Although from mobile view of it. I believe signatures are as responsive as images in the forum. Maybe I'll check it out with desktop in the other forum.

I think it is more effective to set the height of the signature bar to be static according to your intended reasonableness.

Not all managers want or can afford to hire designers due to budget constraints. The signature on the link I showed, I'm sure it just uses an online bbcode art generator instead of the designer's work.

Looks to me that the Artemis signature in question is about a hundred pixels in size. So that makes it almost the size of a Google ad that you can see on websites.

It isn't really noticeable on mobile though, because signatures that end up being too long horizontally get cut off, regardless of whether you increase the signature height or not.

I think the origin of the problem is that there isnt a fixed space for signature. It appears just after the post text:



Maybe, one way to solve this, would be to push the signature to the bottom of the post, in a fixed height div. Like this:

^^ Correct, I also want to suggest that, more precisely align it with the badge bar position by default because each member can have several pictures of membership status and also forum posts which makes the profile space add higher. It can also differentiate between post and signature (if the signature is not made special like the admin is currently using) and does not take up any additional space at all, just separates using the remaining free space.

The abuse i can only see on this is to have those large images, fonts, bbocodes as their signature where it's already disturbing to see such posts with signatures like that. Although i didn't see something like that yet. Better to have a maximum height for signatures, regardless the size of the fonts, bbcodes, images placed on signatures, only the viewable size can be seen on the signature space below a post.

That means that someone could create a signature that takes the whole page, and since this is not stated in forum rules we can see abuse attempts in future.
I think that main problem is height of the signature, this should have some kind of limitation, this is more noticed in computer devices than on mobile phones.
