DAVID?!??!??! HELP!!!!!!
Posted by chopperfan on Wednesday, November 16, 2005 10:59 AM

What's happening with the signature pictures????

Sometimes they would show up small and you could click on them to size them up.  Other times they would appear at their normal size.  Now?!  They are slowing disappearing!! 

I thought it was just mine but, I noticed some of the others are cut short, also.

Also, I just noticed, when I previewed my post?  The picture is fine.  Only it is showing up full size.

Dave recently introduced a 200 pixel height limit on signatures. That's why they are getting chopped off.

There was an update to the forums yesterday: Nov 15, 2005 Forum Update

In the old forums, images in signatures were dynamically resized, but I decided against doing it this time.  One reason for doing this is that just because they can be made to "look" smaller, the actual file size of the image doesn't change.  I don't think that many people realize this and have the impression that we're making both the dimensions and the file size smaller when really we're not.

While it's not a problem to post large images within discussions (topics, posts) as it has come to be expected, large images within signatures can be a problem because they're displayed everywhere a member posts.

Thanks, Dave.

Now all I have to do is try and remember how to change the size of my pictures. Confused [%-)]  But, I WILL persevere!!!!
