It's based on the banners I use on my site. Due to the 200 characters limitation on the sig only the first one is clickable.

They are too big. Get rid of one or make them smaller. And no, to my knowlege, you can't get rid of the frame. Otherwise they look great.

Dead Glory. Rich needs to add border=0 to generated html if 'img' is used in sigs. You only get ugly frames when you make an image clickable. Other forums have changed their code (php I presume) to do this.

Yeah, I was thinking if there was a way to turn of the border in the UBB code (or what he calls it). Guess there isn't.

I am just about to email Rich and see if he will change the code to stop the borders appearing - It's a very simple change.

Annoying border:

Oh I see what you mean. It's ok on regular images, but it makes transparent GIF's look bad.

The only reason you can post images in your signature in the first place is because I forgot to enable the function that stripped them out! Personally I hate them, they take up too much room and are a waste of bandwidth, a text signature should be more than enough. I won't add a border to the img just yet, but I may well enforce a height limit!

Thanks for fixing the border =)

Personally I like images in the sig. It's a nice way to show what you are doing and personalise your posts more. And it makes it easier to recognice users when you scroll by.

I like the hight limit idea though. Some have really annoying big images in their sig.

Solidz:

[*img*]http://www.whatever.com/whatever.gif[*/img*] = show an image
or
[*url=http://www.whatever.com*][*img*]http://www.whatever.com/whatever.gif[*/img*][*/url*] = clickable image

(get rid of the *'s above - this is stop the forum rendering the text above as images!)

Well, technically you can get into anyone's site just by right clicking on their sig, and then deleting the last view /'s.

Just a little trick I know.
