Maybe its just me, but I've noticed a growing trend to posting larger and larger (read "taller") signature images at the bottom of some members posts......its not that the file sizes are really out there (some are over forum guidelines) but the time to load pages for dial-up connections must be an unnecessarily long wait and the scrolling between questions and replys, could certainly be reduced a bit.......how about an image limit of about 100 pixels in height as a max, and we can keep the 30kb filesize as that seems reasonable ?
Mine as you see it is 600x75 and does me fine, but there are members who prefer to display images too......you can still display lots of info on an 800x100 pixel banner, including images and text ......... 8)

We have been asking people to reduce them in size when they are a wee bit excessive Ken. If you find any offenders please PM one of the mods and we'll get onto it straight away Wink

I very much agree. You don't need a "Billboard" in your sig!
Please people, try to reduce your sig pics, you know who you are!
