How about limiting the characters in signatures to like...well, less than it is now? It seems like most of the scrolling I do on the forums is to get past the x-number of pages-long signatures. XD
I do know about hiding signatures altogether, but the thing is that I don't mind signatures if they're small or if they don't have gigantic font-sizes in them. It's just weird when I see someone's post and think it's huge, when in reality, they just have a signature that drags on for WAY too long. XD
I'm glad someone brought this up. I absolutely loathe large signatures (my own is about the extent of what I like to see) -- but I know a lot of people don't mind them.
I propose a solution that may or may not be easy to implement ( I don't have the experience in coding to know ) -- An option, similar to 'hide signatures' which would be 'truncate signatures' and only display the first 200-300 characters of a signature (or possibly first 4-5 lines, but I'm not sure how that would work with word-wrap). Signatures that are truncated could end in a link that would expand the signature to show the entire signature if desired.
Otherwise a 'signature ignore list' could be handy.
Embraced by a gentle breeze, my heart breaks as I think of you.
