Why cant we do pictures?

by Chinchow » Tue Feb 12, 2013 21:24

Alright in the minecraft forums you can put a picture in your signature to advertise texture packs and I'm wondering why we can't do that here

Because images in signatures clutter up the forums. I've seen some forums where the signatures occupy more than the actual posts (due partly to "me too" kinds of responses).
Your signature is not the place for a blog post. Please keep it as concise as possible. Thank you!

No, signatures help people advertise their things.

What if we had a 1 image size limit for signatures? Wouldn't be too cluttered.

Then I could make it 7 pixels wide, and 12000 vertical. That sill would clutter forum.

maybe limit it to thread width, and 128 down.

(using css: max-width:100% and max-height:128px;)

Resizing isn't a good idea, IMO.
But what keeping us from checking not only size but resolution also? Say, not bigger then 128*500 (too huge already) and 20-30 Kb? (Or how much? )

Well, if you are looking for texture packs you go to the Texture Packs forum and dont look at random signatures.

It's sort of like for advertising... and yes, I totally agree with the idea!

I have quit minetest ... again. I am heavily unimpressed by both the game and the community.

Hello,
1.) set max resolution or size
2.) php: resize to default values X Y (when uploading your signature)
3.) quote rubenwardy "css: width 100%, height Y"
