Question:

I can't use any taq codes for signature so, is it possible to have a picture as signature? Smile

I really would like to have this option, but if it is possible don't let the pictures be too big.

I really would like to have this option, but if it is possible don't let the pictures be too big.

Settings for signatures atm:
- Show sigs in forum on.
- Images off.
- UBB (MyCode) on.
- HTML off.
- 400 characters max.

I don't know if I should allow images in sigs.
From one side - this is a forum about design. It's fun to show off your work in your sig. People browsing this forum are also most likely using a fast connection.

On the other hand - allowing images in sigs will make this forum A LOT slower. Images are already allowed in avatars and members are able to put URLs in their sig, to either link to their gallery here, or a portfolio site somewhere else.

Opinions?

Would really love that, but you'd already knew that.

My vote is yes, so any other opinions? Smile
To be honest I don't really think it's nessicary (awful word).
Like Marlou said you already have an icon to express your creativity and all :D
YEAH, I'm a MELANATOR
