Peo...

Can you please increase the limit? 200 characters just isn't enough if you want to use urls and colors in your signature. Like, how about 400 characters? Or maybe even 500?

In fact, why not remove that limit thing all together? Just keep the 4 lines max rule, I'm fine with that. Please~~~~~~!!! :):)

Thanks!!

The sig is intended for a short description of yourself, a quote or your website url. It's not intended for anything else. I think 200 characters is plenty for that purpose. Too long sigs or eyecatching sigs are very annoying and that's why we have limits. Some forums don't even allow sigs or any code in the sig... (WHT for instance)

If you have something more to tell the world about yourself you can put it in your biography in the profile.

I don't have much of a sig, but I can't fit anymore vB codes in there because of the character limit :(

Well thats what you get for having 4 links in your sig.

My tiny little sig already used up 60 characters.
If I added a link or two, it would all be used up.

Yes, the limit wouldn't be so bad if vB code wasn't included in the character count. There is, of course, a simple way to get around the limit but I'm not going to **cough**, excuse me, say **cough** **cough**, oh my, say what it **cough** **cou-disable-javascript-gh** **cough**, hmm, say what it is. :D

Duh... :rolleyes: But I figured if I tried that, Peo would ban me or something... :p So I thought it'd be best to ask him first.
